Grant-Funded Growth Ever-Green recently secured a 4.7M MnCIFA grant to build a new geothermal system in Saint Paul, reflecting a proven model for financing and delivering large-scale geothermal projects with public funds. This creates a pipeline opportunity to pursue similar city/state-funded district energy and decarbonization projects for municipalities and universities.
Education Partnerships Partnerships with Lane Community College, Clark University, and pro bono work with Second Nature show a clear path to campus energy projects, including campus microgrids, energy efficiency retrofits, and decarbonization programs, offering long-term service contracts around design, installation, and O&M.
End-to-End Ownership As developers, owners, and operators of energy systems, Ever-Green can offer integrated EPC/O&M and financing solutions to institutions seeking reliable, decarbonized energy supply, enabling long-term revenue from asset ownership and operations.
Regional Footprint A strong Minnesota base with recent geothermal investments demonstrates credibility with local regulators and utilities, positioning Ever-Green to scale geothermal and energy conservation services to other Midwest markets and climate finance programs.
Strategic Hiring The addition of a senior VP external affairs and chief legal officer indicates emphasis on policy, regulatory navigation, and grant management—selling points when approaching public-sector buyers and funders who require governance and accountability.
