“QBotix is the most innovative company in the large-scale solar project space right now, and I'm excited to be part of its growing momentum,” said Miskovsky. “QBotix technology is where solar is heading – reducing costs while increasing energy production to deliver superior lifecycle economics. The experience of the last four years has shown me that the balance-of-system (BOS) is where project costs are being driven down most; QBotix is perfectly positioned to lead that charge.”   

Prior to joing Zep Solar, Miskovsky was the US President of Canadian Solar and co-founder/CEO of solar PPA-financing company CleanSource Power. Before entering the solar industry, he held senior roles at a number of technology start-ups and finance companies. Miskovsky is a Princeton graduate and received his MBA from Dartmouth's Amos Tuck School.
