With a commitment to environmental stewardship, social equity, and long-term impact, we empower communities, industries, and policymakers to make energy choices that matter.
Join us on a journey where sustainability meets innovation — and where energy becomes a force for good.
Thomas Holme
Co Founder & President of all Projects.
Thomas Holme grew up in Shakopee, Minnesota. Stayed in Minnesota for all of his education as well as to be closer to his family. Some of his hobbies include fishing, hunting, golfing, watching/playing hockey as well as volunteering Lifeline Pilot. Mr. Holme currently lives in Minneapolis with his finance and their dog.
Mr. Holme has built a career at the intersection of hard work, innovation, and vision. With a background in construction, he understands the importance of strong foundations-not just in buildings, but in the way we power our communities. Over the years, Thomas has gained hands-on experience in every stage of construction, giving him a practical understanding of how energy use and efficiency directly impact both costs and the environment.
As a licensed pilot, Thomas also brings a unique perspective: one that looks beyond the horizon. Aviation has sharpened his awareness of efficiency, precision, and the urgent need for sustainable energy solutions in a changing world. From the sky, the effects of climate and environmental change are clear, fueling Thomas’s passion for sustainable development.
Bridging these two worlds, Thomas is dedicated to promoting green energy solutions that don’t just imagine the future, but actively build it. Whether it’s advocating for renewable integration in construction projects, supporting clean energy innovation, or engaging with communities to inspire change, he believes that the path forward is one where human progress and environmental stewardship go hand in hand.
Mr. Holme’s mission is simple: to help create a future where homes, workplaces, and communities we build today are powered sustainably for generations to come.
