Project developer BlueWave Solar launches community-solar-focused Perch Energy

Solar developer BlueWave Solar’s community solar business has launched as a new company today, Perch Energy, to assist customers with access to community solar programs. Perch will use BlueWave’s community solar services and management platform and expand and scale its community solar business throughout the United States.

To date, Perch (via BlueWave) has enabled more than 6,300 community solar subscriptions for homes, businesses and municipalities, providing more than $9.7 million in customer savings. Perch has the capability to offer a diverse set of products and services for the management of community solar projects as well as for homeowners, renters, and businesses seeking cost-effective choices for supporting clean energy.

Informed by the team’s experience spanning 500 MW of contracted capacity, Perch Energy will provide several solutions that ensure community solar projects reach their subscription goals. By combining a comprehensive suite of community solar services — from acquisition support and credit management to customer service support and detailed reporting — Perch serves as a one-stop shop for asset owners’ needs.

Perch also recently launched its direct-to-consumer digital platform that offers greater choice in clean energy options and exceptional value through continuous market analysis. Through Perch, homeowners and renters instantly gain full transparency into the current clean energy prices available to them locally.

“We are excited to be at the forefront of expanding access to community solar and clean energy, and soon, to communities that have been historically deprived of energy choice,” said Ravi Thuraisingham, acting CEO of Perch Energy. “We look forward to bringing our tools for easier access to renewable energy to more communities.”
