From our own roof to 400+ projects

Douglas R. Berry, our president and CEO, formed SRE in January 2010. He was a partner at KPMG for 21 years, then a partner at ParenteBeard. He started that firm's renewable energy group in 2009, and then left ParenteBeard to form SRE.

Our first array was 40 kW, on the roof of our own headquarters in Mechanicsburg, PA. The largest on our Projects page is 4,400 kW, floating on a reservoir in Sayreville, NJ.

Today we do the whole job. We develop, finance, build, own, monitor and maintain solar, and sell the credits (SRECs) it earns. Building new arrays is most of our work.

Our leaders come from project development, finance, public accounting and tax. We invest in many of the projects we develop.

Our focus is clean, renewable power that brings utility cost savings and a smaller carbon footprint.
