Meet Recurrent Energy

Founded in 2006, we are one of the top solar project developers in the U.S. and have developed, originated and constructed projects ranging from commercial rooftop installations to large utility-scale plants that include vast amounts of storage.

Recurrent Energy has always led the pack in solar energy development. As an early mover in U.S. markets such as California, Recurrent Energy set the standard for solar energy development and contracting. As solar energy became more cost competitive in markets across the United States, we expanded our footprint as well, meeting the needs of our customers nationwide. We have a best-in-class team with in-house experts across all stages of the project development lifecycle, from siting, design, interconnection, permitting and procurement to origination & structuring, financing, construction, and asset management. To complement our solar experience, we also have extensive in-house energy storage design, marketing, and optimization expertise.
