The company is currently engaged in major projects that leverage its expanded capacity following the merger with CS Energy, focusing on utility-scale solar and storage in high-growth regions such as California, Texas, and the Southeast. This expansion is supported by a multi-GW development pipeline, indicating a robust future for the company (source: zoominfo.com). Key clients include leading solar developers and utilities, with formal partnerships established to enhance service delivery and project execution capabilities.

On January 15, 2025, the company acquired SDI Services, a foundation drilling firm, which enhances its project execution capabilities in renewables by adding skilled labor and equipment capacity (source: sdbj.com). Additionally, SOLV Energy launched its third annual PowerUp! Renewable Energy Scholarship on January 16, 2025, awarding $1,500 each to six U.S. high school seniors pursuing careers in energy, reflecting its commitment to workforce development (source: zoominfo.com).

The company has grown from over 600 employees before 2020 to approximately 800 today, reflecting its national expansion efforts (source: zoominfo.com). Active hiring is taking place at its San Diego headquarters and project sites nationwide, particularly in California and states like Texas and New Jersey following the merger. The company culture emphasizes a "people first" mentality, fostering team growth and innovation, while also investing in corporate social responsibility programs and policy advocacy (source: solvenergy.com).
