Building Projects that
Strengthen Communities
Our Promise
Scout doesn’t just build renewable energy projects – we own and operate them for the life of the project. Our employees and families live and work in the communities where our projects operate.
At Scout, investing in projects isn’t just about completing construction, it’s about ensuring a lasting, positive impact in our communities that endures for generations.
We Help Communities Thrive
Our communities share in the many benefits created by renewable energy, which include:
Tax Revenue
Scout projects provide millions of dollars in tax revenue for local communities over their operating lifetime. These funds can be used to improve things like schools, infrastructure, public services, and much more. Our current operating and under construction portfolio is expected to generate 170 million dollars in tax income for local communities through their collective operation
Job Creation
Scout projects create numerous employment opportunities throughout their life, from development to operation. In addition to creating permanent local operation and maintenance positions, our projects create an average of 200 temporary construction jobs.
Economic Stimulation
Scout employees and contractors support and boost the local economy by choosing local dining, convenience store, and lodging options. Particularly during construction, many businesses local to our projects have reported massive increases in sales revenue.
Educational Opportunities
Scout projects offer numerous educational opportunities for communities to learn about the growing clean energy industry and the operational nature of our wind, solar, and storage facilities. We work with local schools, workforce development organizations, and other groups to give lectures, foster networking, and even lead site visits to learn more about our projects and their technology.
