DSD Secures Master Contract for California Public Agency Solar Program

DSD Renewables (DSD) has secured a master contract with School Project for Utility Rate Reduction (SPURR) to be its chosen developer partner for the Renewable Energy Aggregated Procurement (REAP) Program. Under this partnership, DSD will offer solar and energy storage solutions to California public school districts, county offices of education, community college districts and other public agencies based on SPURR’s competitively sourced pricing and contract terms.

The REAP Program helps eligible entities streamline their adoption of solar and energy storage systems through a proven cooperative procurement model. To date, the program has facilitated the contracting of 275 megawatts (MW) of solar capacity and 80 megawatt-hours (MWh) of energy storage for more than 75 public agencies across hundreds of sites in California.

SPURR selected DSD following an extensive request for proposal process that evaluated vendors based on pricing, system design capabilities, operational expertise, and an established track record of successful installations.

“We’re grateful for the opportunity from SPURR to deliver economical solar and storage solutions to schools, municipalities, and non-profits across California,” said Jacob Hoheim, Senior Director of Origination at DSD.

Participants in the REAP Program receive detailed project feasibility studies and savings analyses at no cost. These assessments help public agencies understand their potential energy savings and environmental impact before committing to solar, ensuring informed decision-making about their renewable energy investments.

Public agencies can benefit from SPURR’s streamlined REAP Program procurement process and DSD’s expertise in renewable energy design, development, and long-term operations and maintenance.

“Through our highly competitive RFP process, DSD emerged as the winning vendor for our REAP Program,” said Kevin Flanagan, REAP Program Manager at SPURR. “With its unique approach to project design and execution, and a history of successful projects, we’re confident DSD can help ensure this program continues to thrive and deliver valuable solar and storage solutions across California.”

SPURR is a California Joint Powers Authority of 340 member public school districts, community college districts, and county offices of education. Public agencies interested in learning more about the REAP Program can contact [email protected].
