Client Profile

Spark R&D is a Bozeman-based splitboard binding company that manufactures their products in-house. As I'm sure you can imagine, this takes a lot of energy! The co-owners of Spark R&D, Becca and Will Ritter, are not only sustainably-minded business owners, but also long time friends of OnSite Energy, which made it a fun project for everyone involved.

Case Study

This project is estimated to product 61,255 kWh per year, helping to offset Spark R&D's manufacturing load.
