Our projects produce more than just renewable energy.
Together with communities, Pivot helps deliver affordable and reliable local power, increase energy autonomy, and provide local economic benefits. Pivot Energy invests in every local community where it develops and operates solar and energy storage projects through a community investment fund.
We have donated over $1.3M to fund local initiatives in the U.S., and have pledged millions more.
OUR PRIORITIES
Achieve your energy goals faster with our impactful development philosophy.
Reliable, Affordable Power
Solar and energy storage are among the fastest and most affordable ways to meet rising energy needs. Pivot projects help communities and businesses keep pace with energy demand while expanding local energy choice and reducing nationwide dependence on foreign energy imports.
Local Economic Development
Pivot Energy’s solar and storage projects are boosting the economic health of rural communities nationwide by generating hundreds of thousands of dollars of local property taxes, creating new income for landowners and vegetation partners, and stimulating local spending. Pivot invests in the communities it serves – donating over $1.3 million to local impact initiatives that support long-term community benefits.
Preserving Agricultural Character
Land partners and their communities can be confident that preserving agricultural land character is a priority we share. 100% of qualified project sites employ dual-use practices, including on-site livestock grazing, pollinator habitat creation, native plant enhancement, and crop production. We emphasize holistic land stewardship practices, from development to dispatch to decommissioning, leaving your land healthier than we found it.
OUR INITIATIVES IN ACTION
Pivot believes that renewable energy projects should contribute to local economic growth and provide a long-term, reliable, affordable power supply. We take deliberate action to ensure maximum community impact across the entire development process.
Community Engagement and Investment
Pivot’s three-touchpoint community engagement plan brings stakeholders into the process early and keeps them engaged throughout development. We incorporate community input to inform our local investment commitments.
Domestic Sourcing
Pivot is proud to be at the forefront of investing in and installing U.S.-made solar panels and other domestically produced solar and energy storage components, encouraging the onshoring of the energy industry.
Creating Jobs
Each of Pivot’s energy projects creates jobs for a diverse set of individuals: local graziers who support land stewardship, subcontractors who specialize in installation and maintenance, and the service workers supported by tax revenue from local energy generation. Our focus on local communities adds up to nationwide job creation and economic support.
In 2025 alone, Pivot created more than 940 construction jobs in the U.S.
Focus on Low-Cost Energy Choice
Electricity ratepayers should have access to the most affordable electricity possible and autonomy over their energy options. We prioritize reducing energy bills for low-income community solar subscribers, ensuring everyone has access to energy choice.

Local Investment, Local Growth.
Commitment to Community Investment
Driving growth and success in communities across the nation.
Community organizations lead the way in providing needed services and support. That’s why we invest in local organizations for every project built. We are proud to support a broad network of regional and local partners who work to reduce energy burden, introduce students and prospective workers to the renewable energy industry, and strengthen rural agricultural communities.
LONG-LASTING COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS
We work hand in hand with local organizations that understand community needs to provide tangible support to drive impact where it’s needed most.
Pivot’s support is instrumental in creating workforce pathways into the growing solar industry, especially for minorities, women, and those in underrepresented groups. Together, we are driving meaningful change and paving the way for a more inclusive and sustainable future.”
