King Energy Unveils Clean Energy Initiative in Chino Hills

On May 21, 2026, King Energy, a prominent leader in commercial solar solutions across the nation, proudly held a ribbon-cutting ceremony at The Shoppes at Chino Hills. This event symbolized a major step forward, not only for the shopping center and its tenants but also for the entire Chino Hills community. In collaboration with Dunhill Partners, the ceremony was attended by key figures including property management, King Energy's leadership team, and local City Council Member Peter Rogers.

The Shoppes at Chino Hills stands out as a landmark project for King Energy, combining cutting-edge technology with significant benefits for tenants and the local community alike. Spearheading this initiative is a sophisticated multi-array solar energy system designed to optimize clean energy generation on-site. According to Rob Porter, Chief Commercial Officer at King Energy, this setup features a five-point interconnection system linking five different solar arrays to the local power grid, thus ensuring a seamless flow of energy. The end result? Nearly two million kilowatt hours of emissions-free energy generated and utilized directly by local businesses.

“This project demonstrates how tenants can save on energy costs while also contributing to environmental sustainability,” said Porter. “It’s a win-win situation—tenants benefit financially, we have a new rent-paying partner in King Energy, and the community enjoys the fruits of clean energy generated right in their city center.”

The Shoppes at Chino Hills are not only a retail destination but have become a pivotal gathering space for residents. Visitors flock to the area daily for coffee, lunch, and shopping, making it a cornerstone of daily life in Chino Hills. Dunhill Partners views their investment in this solar initiative as a commitment to the long-term viability of the shopping center and the myriad businesses that call it home.

Darryll Goodman, General Manager of The Shoppes at Chino Hills, remarked on the benefits of this project, stating, “From local small businesses to national retailers, having access to discounted, clean energy will greatly support our tenants and ensures the long-term growth of the property. This initiative reflects the community’s value for thoughtful and sustainable development.”

City Council Member Peter Rogers underscored the importance of this project for Chino Hills, framing it as a model that could inspire similar initiatives across the region. “This project is much more than just panels placed on a roof. It signifies a serious commitment to sustainability and is a forward-thinking investment in our community,” he noted. “The Shoppes are essentially the center of our city, and when our retail partners lead by example regarding environmental responsibility, we strengthen our community and enhance its appeal for both residents and visitors.”

King Energy's project exemplifies a broader mission: delivering both financial and environmental benefits to commercial properties, as well as to the neighborhoods surrounding them. By producing clean energy right where it is consumed, such projects aid local businesses, lighten the load on energy grids, and bring lasting value to property owners and tenants alike.

King Energy manages every component of the solar platform, from installation to operations and tenant billing. Using their innovative OneBill™ software platform, King Energy simplifies the financial interaction between property owners and tenants by consolidating utility and solar charges into one transaction, making the process easier and more efficient.

In bringing this ambitious solar project to fruition, King Energy extends its gratitude to Dunhill Partners, the City of Chino Hills, Southern California Edison, and all partners involved in this collaborative effort.
