Clean Power Stories

“I would tell someone looking to join the industry right now that I wish I could have joined it a lot sooner than I did. It’s been a great career for me. It’s been a great job path for me and my family.”

“I joined the clean energy industry because I knew there was job security. I got the opportunity to go into wind, and it became a whole new world for me.”

“Being a service member, it really hits home when you hear the saying ‘Made in America.’ To be able to come to work every day and provide America with energy…that’s something you can be proud of.”

"I’m the first female solar operations manager for the company and I am very proud of that…One of my favorite landowner stories is when a landowner came into our office and told us the lease payments from the land he purchased several years ago put his children through college."

“Right now in solar and clean energy…there’s a large community of veterans. I think it’s awesome that it’s a place for veterans to use their talents and what they’ve learned, and we welcome it.”

“We prioritize safety and continuously watch the backs of our teammates, we stay focused on completing our missions, and ensure that our own wellbeing is taken care of so we can take care of the team and mission."

“Renewable energy is a booming industry and skills that veterans acquire through military service and training are invaluable to providing and maintaining clean energy.”

“Working in renewable development is a “jack of all trades” specialty jumping from working with landowners, to reviewing permitting standards, to building the business and financial models for a project to find viable offtake. The military experience is very similar.”

"Serving in the military prepared me for the clean energy industry by instilling core values such as teamwork, dependability, and commitment to service. When comparing those core values to the definition of clean energy, you see the syndication."
