What Dynamic Energy does

Dynamic Energy Solutions, LLC is a U.S. commercial and industrial solar developer and engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) firm headquartered in Wayne, Pennsylvania with an additional office in Philadelphia. Founded around 2010 and operating for approximately 15 years, the company designs, finances, builds, and operates distributed generation solar projects including rooftop, ground-mounted, carport canopy, and community solar installations across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, and Midwest. Customers include enterprise industrial manufacturers, commercial REITs, educational and municipal institutions, retailers, nonprofits, and landowners; notable logos include CubeSmart, Kingspan Insulation, STAG Industrial, Belimo, Wacoal America, Barrette Outdoor Living, Estes Express Lines, Skidmore College, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, and Albertsons. The company generates revenue through a multi-stream model combining turnkey EPC services, 20-25 year Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), direct solar purchase with Investment Tax Credit monetization, asset sales to infrastructure investors (including Goldman Sachs Asset Management and Amp Energy), and C-PACE financing through partners such as Greenworks Lending.

The company's core technology stack combines in-house professional engineers, project managers, and master electricians with a Spark AI-powered site assessment tool that aggregates zoning, environmental, and sentiment data to compress early-stage evaluation from 4-10 hours to under one hour. Since 2022 Dynamic Energy has operated as a subsidiary of Pattern Energy, one of the world's largest privately-owned utility-scale wind and transmission developers, providing balance sheet support and grid-scale expertise while preserving its distributed generation focus. The firm supports add-on services including battery energy storage, EV charging infrastructure, and ongoing asset management, and reaches customers through direct enterprise field sales, an affiliate referral program, and community solar subscription offerings in utility territories such as New York's SCEF program and National Grid Zone F. Leadership includes CEO John Conley (formerly Chief Commercial Officer, with prior tenure at Tesla, SolarCity, and SunPower), President and COO Oliver Davis, and Chief Development Officer John Motta.
