von Trapp Brewery / ER Bierhall Solar

Encore worked with the iconic Trapp Family Lodge and the Stowe Electric Department to deliver a 200kW roof-mounted solar project at the von Trapp Brewery and Bierhall in Stowe, Vermont, a project that required overcoming significant technical and financial hurdles to become a reality. Under the terms of the arrangement, the von Trapp Brewery will receive net metering credits at a discount compared to their face value, with the renewable energy credits (RECs) going to Stowe Electric Department to address the utility’s requirements under the Vermont Renewable Energy Standard. Encore financed the project and will serve as long-term owner operator.
