Solar awards and projects in Kent’s record

Washington’s Department of Commerce announced grants for solar at public buildings that included an entry for the City of Kent “to install 65 kW at the Senior Activity Center.” The Kent Reporter wrote on September 14, 2022 that “Kent will get its first solar installation at a city facility.” In September 2023 the paper reported a Commerce award to the City of Kent for the Kent Senior Center Solar plus Storage Project. The article adds that “All grant funds are contingent upon execution of final project contracts with Commerce.” Those are awards and plans, and they do not show what has been built. In 2018 the Kent Reporter published a submitted item saying a Kent warehouse was “now operating with the help of solar panels.” The item said the panels were funded by a Puget Sound Energy Green Power solar grant for a 75 kilowatt project.

The City’s energy page

The City of Kent’s energy page says that in 2018 the City signed an agreement to buy power for nearly all its facilities through Puget Sound Energy’s Green Direct program. The page says that once a new roof went onto the Senior Activity Center in 2022, staff explored the feasibility of placing solar panels on it. It also says the Department of Commerce is supporting a larger solar system with battery backup storage there, with completion “slated” for 2024. That date has passed, and the page gives no later update.
