Federal Solar Power Partnership: Here Comes the Sun
Federal agencies partner on solar installation plans to meet standards set by President Obama.
For the first time, federal government agencies have developed a solar purchasing partnership plan.
The Environmental Protection Agency, Forest Service, Department of Energy and General Services Administration created the Federal Aggregated Solar Procurement Project (or FASPP) in response to a March executive order requiring federal agencies to in the next 10 years cut greenhouse gas emissions 40 percent and increase renewable energy use 30 percent.
