Our team ignited the Nebraska solar market, creating a thriving pipeline of community and municipal projects. Now, with a national footprint, over $168M in annual revenue, and a workforce of 100+ professionals, we partner with developers to build premier solar farms, focusing on community and utility-scale projects across the Midwest.
