Job Creation

By investing in utility-scale solar, we can continue creating jobs nationwide and diversifying America’s energy portfolio. Utility-scale solar creates jobs across the supply chain, from R&D and engineering to manufacturing and project finance to development and construction.

Cost Savings

What distinguishes utility-scale solar from distributed generation is both project size and the fact that the electricity is sold to wholesale utility buyers, not end-use consumers. Utility-scale solar plants provide the benefit of fixed-priced electricity during peak demand periods when electricity from fossil fuels is the most expensive.

Reducing Emissions

Developing utility-scale solar power is one of the fastest ways to reduce carbon emissions and put the United States on a path to a clean energy future.

Grid Reliability

Many utility-scale solar designs can also include energy storage capacity that provides power when the sun is not shining, and increases grid reliability and resiliency. Utility customers have repeatedly endorsed investments in utility-scale solar plants.

Places of Worship

“ We searched out many different companies before we made the decision to go with Atwood Energy. We made that decision based upon how straightforward and honest they were from the very beginning. We were always kept in the loop of what was going on. Once the project was complete they made sure that we were happy with it, and understood how it worked. When we had questions they were always more than happy to answer them throughout the whole process. They were very easy to work with.”

Eschbank Farms -Washington, IA

"Atwood Energy installed a solar array for us in March 2019. We had compared their proposal with other companies' offers, and Atwood Energy was definitely the best option for us. Once the install was done, we were even more impressed with their crews' professionalism and quality of work. The array is nicely done, the area was neat and tidy when the crews were done, and we've had a good result from the solar addition. We've since had Atwood Energy do other work for us, and have plans to have them back again."

Bayliss Farms, Ottumwa, IA

"Great local company to work with - good communication, reliable quote, wonderful attention to detail, & dependable! Would highly recommend Atwood Energy!"

Double T Harper, IA

"I found Atwood Energy's staff highly professional and extremely helpful as we install our solar panels for our High School, Day Care and Bus Barn. They went above and beyond to make sure the operation of our school was not interrupted and made sure all safety measures were in place during construction. They were very helpful from our initial conversations regarding solar power to the completed installation. We are planning on having them involved when we start on our solar project for the remaining buildings on our campus. Great Job."

Dave Harper, Packwood, IA

"Atwood Energy installed solar panels in 4 different locations for us. One residential and three major commercial sites. They did an awesome job from start to finish. Nice, professional workmanship. They answered questions throughout the entire process very knowledgeably and checked back to make sure we were satisfied. Since the project was finished we have had additional questions and they have always answered back promptly. Overall very happy with their service."
