What They Do

SOLV Energy specializes in utility-scale solar power and energy storage, providing comprehensive services that encompass engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) for solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery storage projects. Their operations also include ongoing maintenance (O&M) for active solar assets, high-voltage substation construction, and construction management. The company’s EPC services cover a wide range of activities, including site preparation, structural engineering, panel and inverter installation, electrical systems integration, and grid interconnection (source: zoominfo.com). SOLV Energy primarily targets utility-scale developers, independent power producers, and commercial and industrial clients who require large-scale deployments of 50 megawatts (MW) or greater per project, focusing on the U.S. market (source: american-securities.com). The company differentiates itself through its end-to-end project execution, leveraging its heritage from Swinerton construction to integrate general contracting expertise with specialized renewable technology.

Projects & Track Record

SOLV Energy has an impressive track record, having constructed over 18 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity across 34 states as of 2024, while also providing O&M services for more than 15 GW of solar assets in North America (source: american-securities.com). 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.

Recent Developments

In recent years, SOLV Energy has made significant strides, including a partnership with CS Energy announced in October 2024, aimed at broadening geographic capabilities and employee support, culminating in their business combination in 2024 (source: zoominfo.com). 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).

Working There

SOLV Energy offers a variety of roles across multiple departments, including EPC project management, engineering (civil, electrical, structural), construction trades (electricians, drillers, laborers), O&M technicians, and high-voltage substation specialists. 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).
