As states across the Northeast continue to increase their appetite for renewable energy, brownfield development is becoming an increasingly attractive option, particularly as larger sites like abandoned coal mines and landfills become viable. And perhaps no development firm is better positioned to take advantage of this trend than Encore Renewable Energy.
Land-lease brownfield development has been part of Encore’s bread and butter since its founding in 2007. Our CEO Chad Farrell recently connected with Andrew Burnes at New Project Media to discuss his background in assessing and organizing cleanups of hazardous waste sites in the Northeast before launching Encore Renewable Energy and our ongoing efforts to turn brownfields to brightfields.
