Our Project Manager is Terry Bohl, America’s foremost expert in the development of commercial-sized solar on Native American reservations. Terry has developed a dozen solar projects on reservations, creating more than 3.9 kWh and 1200 kWh of battery storage. Terry has perfected a system that shortened the development process from three years to one year, and he standardized methods and techniques that are designed to return maximum to the Tribe and its enrollees. He also has great experience developing destination entertainment centers, travel plazas, and other business development projects.
