THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Black River Falls Public Library completed a solar installation funded 100% by grants and donations, including a $15,000 EBSCO Solar Grant awarded in 2026. The system is expected to offset about 85% of annual energy use and will be used for tours and renewable energy education. Solar integrators and related vendors can explore follow-on monitoring, curriculum support, and potential expansion or replication at other city facilities.
Implementation is complete, but the project showcases an incumbent solar solution and a model for future city installations.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
