Rivian, Patagonia partner with Sol Systems for renewable energy

Rivian, Patagonia and Sol Systems have joined forces to advance renewable energy in North Carolina through a Renewable Energy Certificate and Community Impact Agreement. This partnership is centered around the 50 MWac Lick Creek Solar project in Stokes County, NC, which will supply clean energy and contribute to a more sustainable future. The project is not only a step towards reducing carbon emissions but also a demonstration of how businesses can use renewable energy procurement to create positive social and environmental impacts. The Lick Creek Solar project benefits the local community today through its infrastructure investment in clean electricity, and this procurement initiative is designed to create an additional layer of community impact. Through their collaboration, Rivian, Patagonia, and Sol Systems are committed to creating meaningful benefits for local youth. This effort follows The Nature Conservancy and Rivian’s co-developed holistic “Power with Purpose” approach to renewable energy, which emphasizes both environmental and societal gains.
