Aspen Power Co-Founder and CEO Jorge Vargas recently joined Paul Gerke on the Factor This! podcast to discuss what resilience truly means in today’s energy market. Jorge explained why distributed generation platforms like ours are built to endure, and even thrive, in the face of shifting federal policy. As more states embrace the benefits of community solar, rising demand from electrification and AI continues to drive the need for scalable, flexible energy solutions.
From expanding into 19 states in just four years to reimagining how farmland can support clean energy, Aspen Power is proving that community solar still works. As Jorge put it:
“We’ve been through a lot of these cycles. Our business has to make money in Democratic administrations and Republican administrations. So we’re nothing but resilient.”
