Episode description

We sit down for an insightful conversation with Corey Hindin, Director of Business Development at AC Power, to talk about transforming brownfields into productive solar farms. We delve into:

  • How business development is structured at AC Power, which entails various steps ranging from market exploration to closing agreements with landowners for project due diligence.
  • The unique characteristics of brownfield development, such as the need for intricate planning and careful navigation of regulatory restrictions, compared to more straightforward greenfield development.
  • The increase in competition and interest in brownfield solar development due to the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act and the importance of standing out through expertise and a responsible approach.
  • The stringent environmental regulations in place for transitioning brownfields into solar projects and how AC Power manages these complexities to create investor-friendly ventures.
  • AC Power's ambitious goal to generate 1.21 gigawatts of energy and become the industry leader in brownfield solar development.

And a lot more!
