As a premier indoor sports and recreation facility, Sportika was intent on joining the clean energy movement, but it was an endeavor worthy of holding out for the right partner. Plankton Energy's dedication to making clean energy attainable for small businesses and community-based organizations made them the right choice for us. Our facility was built for the youth and families we serve, and our commitment to environmental sustainability is just another way we continue to invest in our community

Plankton Energy were professional, helpful and constructive all the way through the process. They answered myriad questions from school Board members and staff, patiently and clearly - very important when you are seeking to obtain agreement on such a major project. Plankton worked hard to ensure that the installation was not overly disruptive and we are now delighted to have a beautiful solar array providing us with renewable energy and significant savings.

This project helps demonstrate that converting to green energy isn't just the idealistic thing to do – it's the hardheaded thing to do. We are honored by the opportunity to work with such a pillar in the Solar Community (Plankton Energy). We pride ourselves in empowering our students to serve as leaders in their communities, and it’s exciting to have Plankton's support as our students continue their important work
