The team from the US branch of Photosol will be integrated into Engie North America

Dave Carroll, chief renewables officer at ENGIE North America, said: “The projects represent excellent greenfield opportunities for both solar and storage to help accelerate our journey towards net-zero. The team at Photosol will bring great experience, insight and further agility to our business in North America and we are delighted to have the opportunity to come together.”

Engie North America currently operates 4GW of renewable energy across North America with a double digit growth for this year, according to the company.
