Sheep are raising their own little families at three LRE solar facilities, and together we’re helping improve the land and overall environment. 🐑 Nearly 3,500 ewes and lambs currently graze at two LRE sites in Texas and one in Ohio. The sheep help manage vegetation and improve soil health by naturally fertilizing the land. Pairing livestock with clean energy production is in perfect alignment with LRE’s sustainability goals. Together with the sheep, we’re leading energy into the future. #SheepGrazing #Sustainability

Our Chief Development Officer, John Wieland, recently spoke with DatacenterDynamics about how renewable energy companies are responding to the rising energy needs of data centers, and the opportunities and challenges this presents for companies like Leeward Renewable Energy (LRE). Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gSZEzP5a Good Times for Renewables Amid Data Center Demand “[LRE] has seen explosive growth in demand. [We] have 3GW of renewable power in operation across more than 29 projects, with 2 GW in execution and another 20+ GW in development. We're not seeing any slowing indications from these hyperscalers and colocation providers.” - John Wieland, Chief Development Officer at LRE #RenewingWhatsPossible #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #DataCenters
