It is among the largest community solar developers in the country and has developed and delivered systems in 17 states.

    Position Overview

    We are seeking a highly skilled Associate General Counsel with extensive experience in the renewable energy sector, particularly in Solar, BESS, and EV Infrastructure projects.
