<br /> <br />2 <br />Acknowledgements <br />Ever-Green Energy (Ever-Green) and LHB would like to express their gratitude to the City of Arden Hills, <br />Ramsey County, the Energy Advisory Committee (EAC), and the Joint Development Authority (JDA) for their <br />assistance in the development of this Rice Creek Commons Green Energy Plan. <br />About Report Author Ever-Green Energy and LHB <br />Ever-Green led the development of this Rice Creek Commons Green Energy Plan. The team at Ever-Green <br />takes pride in being one of the country’s premier district energy system experts, with decades of experience <br />in developing, operating, and managing community energy systems. Ever-Green’s unique combination of <br />technical expertise, business acumen, and operations experience has helped communities, colleges and <br />universities, health care campuses, and government organizations advance the study, development, and <br />operation of community energy systems. The Ever-Green team applies its depth of knowledge through every <br />step of a system’s development and implementation, finding sustainable solutions that are reliable and <br />financially viable to secure a community’s energy future. <br />Ever-Green partnered with LHB due to their ability to bring complementary expertise in energy, carbon, and <br />sustainability planning to Ever-Green’s expertise in energy system development. LHB’s Climate Solutions <br />team leverages the LHB-developed Regional Indicators Initiative for scenario planning and greenhouse gas <br />(GHG) reduction tracking on projects such as climate action plans, carbon-free community planning, net- <br />zero building planning, GHG inventories, and development of sustainability guidelines for the built <br />environment. LHB always looks forward to thinking beyond established practices to create innovative <br />pathways to a more sustainable and regenerative future. Contributors to this project included: Becky <br />Alexander, Rick Carter, Maureen Colburn, Matt Gruber, and David Williams. <br />
