A Conversation With Arno Harris of Recurrent Energy, Part One




Solar Power World show

Summary: As the commercial sector drove much of the growth in the solar industry in 2013, Recurrent Energy led the way. The company worked with Google, MetLife and Duke Energy, just to name  few. To say Recurrent has developed projects for some of the heavy hitters in the commercial sector would undersell its accomplishments. We talked to Arno Harris, Recurrent's CEO, to get his perspective on what drove the industry in 2013 (including the loosening of financing), and how it feels to have the United States finally competing with with Germany as a world solar leader. Hear what Arno has to say in this first of a three-part conversation. Next week, Arno discusses grid-interconnection and the looming expiration of the investment tax credit (ITC) that faces in the industry in 2016.   This podcast is brought to you by Solectria Renewables.
