Willdan Group awarded $15M contract with SoCalREN

Willdan Group (WLDN) announced that it has been awarded a $15M contract with the Southern California Regional Energy Network, or SoCalREN, to deliver energy efficiency services for their commercial portfolio. This two-year contract includes the implementation of SoCalREN’s Small Commercial Direct Install Program, Food Desert Energy Efficiency Equity Program, and Small Medium Business Energy Advisor Program. Willdan will provide these services in partnership with three non-profit organizations that support access to clean energy projects for hard-to-reach communities throughout California – San Joaquin Valley Clean Energy Organization, Kambo Energy Group, and the Rural Prosperity Center. “We appreciate this opportunity to work directly for a Regional Energy Network to support many of the businesses who need it most in this region,” said Mike Bieber, Willdan’s CEO. “This contract is one of several ways that we’re expanding and diversifying our services for clients who are independent of utilities, such as RENs.”
