Eli has spent over a decade in the renewable energy industry, specializing in solar project development, site acquisition, market expansion, and business strategy. He has led commercial, community, and utility-scale projects from lease execution through commercial operations, managing utility program submissions, building high-performing teams, and navigating complex regulations to drive growth.

With a strong track record in site acquisition and market entry, Eli ensures projects align with financial, technical, and regulatory needs. His entrepreneurial mindset and cross-functional collaboration have helped expand clean energy access while creating value for landowners, businesses, and utilities.
