About us
Apex Clean Energy, Inc. is a leading U.S.- based developer of commercial-scale wind and solar energy facilities in North America. With a team of some of the most experienced renewable energy professionals in the industry, we have built a strong reputation for responsible development and quality projects constructed to the highest industry standards.
In December 2012, Apex completed construction of the 300 MW Canadian Hills Wind project in Oklahoma. Earlier that year, commercial operation of Apex’s solar facilities in Colorado commenced. The company is now developing several thousand megawatts of wind and solar projects around the country.
Prior to the formation of Apex, the management team had collectively developed, financed, constructed and managed more than $10 billion in operating renewable energy facilities totaling nearly 10,000 megawatts of capacity. Our people have a proven track record working with communities and landowners to develop state-of-the-art facilities that produce jobs, income to landowners, revenue for local government, and clean sources of domestic energy.
Our Background
Apex was formed in 2009 by a management team with extensive renewable energy experience.
In 2000, the team created Greenlight Energy, Inc. Six years later, they had developed $750 million of facilities that are now in commercial operations, with a combined generating capacity of 450 MW. Following BP Alternative Energy’s acquisition of the company in 2006, the team formed Greenlight Energy Resources to reinvest in the clean energy industry.
In 2007, Apex’s founder created Axio Power, a successful developer of utility-scale solar PV facilities in the U.S. and Canada. Axio was acquired in 2011 by SunEdison. Before being acquired, the company had secured PPAs for over 100 MW of solar capacity.
Today, thanks to a dynamic team of over 70 talented and experienced professionals, Apex is uniquely positioned to deliver clean, domestically-produced energy to homes and businesses across the U.S.
