Field Technician Energieoptimalisatie

Altus Power is a leading commercial scale solar power company delivering reliable, cost-effective electricity to households and enterprises from coast-to-coast. Based in Stamford, Connecticut, just a short train ride from New York City, we develop, own and operate solar energy systems and battery storage nationwide. Altus builds generation right where demand is highest, turning warehouse rooftops, parking lots and brownfields into power-producing assets that feed real megawatts into the country's most capacity-constrained grids.

Since 2009, Altus has grown to own and operate more than 1.3 gigawatts of solar producing projects across 30 states, serving more than 500 enterprises and more than 40,000 community solar subscribers.

In April 2025, Altus Power closed a partnership with TPG Rise Climate Transition Infrastructure, an investor that shares our long-term vision for bringing affordable, locally generated power to communities, businesses and households faster, helping to lower costs and strengthen the grid for everyone. Our ability to scale is backed by strategic partnerships and we are well-capitalized to drive growth in markets with supportive energy policies.

We're building a different kind of power company, driven by expertise and defined by execution. Join us and help build what comes next.
