One significant change is Steven Lichtin’s recent appointment as the Managing Director and CEO of Advantage Capital Renewables.

His valuable insights will surely benefit the solar industry.
From a sustainable solar energy provider, Pineapple Energy Inc., CEO Kyle Udseth announced his resignation. SUNation Energy founder Scott Maskin, who has over 23 years in the solar industry and heads a regional solar company based on Long Island, NY, will take up the interim CEO role. Scott’s extensive experience will no doubt steer Pineapple Energy in the right direction.
Over at Xcel Energy, Rob Bernsten recently bagged the role as the company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Legal and Compliance Officer.

Moreover, there have been some interesting job moves in the world of solar, power, and sustainable energy. These movements include Daniel Smith at Catalyze and Katlyn Lawver at Convergent Energy and Power—both holding significant roles and promising to contribute meaningfully to the growth of renewable energy.
While there’s no shortage of activity in the corporate space, I want to remind you that the solar industry extends beyond the boardrooms and businesses. The solar revolution is literally at your doorstep, waiting to be installed on rooftops. So, if you’ve been considering a solar array for home use, now’s a perfect time. Solar companies are tirelessly innovating, providing superior and efficient solar products.
In other news, a position has opened up for Director of Community Solar Development. This is an excellent opportunity for a trained professional with a passion for solar development, looking to contribute to a Community Solar Project in New York State. It calls for expertise in land acquisition, permitting, utility interconnection, and regulatory compliance, among other areas.
As an industry, solar is multifaceted: it combines innovative tech, crucial sustainability efforts, and exciting career opportunities. While these developments are noteworthy, they are just the tip of the iceberg. As we dive deeper into the opportunities that green technology provides, the future of this industry becomes even brighter. For those interested in joining the solar revolution personally or professionally, remember, every solar panel installed gets us closer to a greener, cleaner future.
