Partnership provides iSun with low-cost services and transformational growth opportunities

iSun, Inc. (NASDAQ: ISUN) (the “Company” or “iSun”), a leading solar energy and clean mobility infrastructure company with 50-years of experience accelerating the adoption of innovative electrical technologies, today announced a strategic partnership with Cleantech Industry Resources, LLC, a highly-automated provider of energy project development and engineering services. This partnership allows iSun to hone its expanding core turnkey EPC business, while CIR concentrates on its growing development-as-a-service and engineering services business. The arrangement is also designed to reduce any conflicts for iSun with its many developer partners, while CIR continues to work with a wide range of developers and renewable energy asset owners.

This strategic partnership also allows iSun to access CIR’s ultra low-cost services platform on a preferred basis.

“We are excited about our strategic partnership with Cleantech Industry Resources, as we continue to be innovative in our approach to scaling our business,” said Jeffrey Peck, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of iSun. “This new partnership allows iSun to expand our access to developmental assets that will fuel our project backlog for years to come, based upon CIR’s estimated pipeline of 5.25 GW, while also enabling us to more efficiently and cost-effectively move forward on our current pipeline of solar projects assets under development.”
