Long recognized inside and outside of the coffee industry as a leader in sustainability practices, Batdorf & Bronson is committed to sustainability within its supply chain as well as within its roasting and retail operations. Batdorf & Bronson COO, David Wasson says, We invest in the future of coffee farmers and coffee drinkers by investing in the communities where we do business, whether it be a coffee farm in Guatemala, or the city of Olympia and Thurston County. The system includes 36-Itek Energy, Made-in-WA modules and inverters. Choosing Washington made products qualifies B&B for the largest production incentive payment from their utility, maxed out at approximately $5,000 per year. Other production incentives and benefits that B&B will receive are a sales tax waiver (under 10kW), a 30% tax credit, electrical bill savings AND accelerated depreciation.

They applied for a 25% grant from the USDAs Rural Energy for America Program (REAP Grant), which was approved in the 6/30/15 grant cycle and will be awarded after 30 days of operation.

Speakers will include: Batdorf & Bronson; South Sound Solar; USDA Rural Energy Department; Puget Sound Energy, Thurston County Chamber of Commerce and Local Government officials.
