About Peak Demand

Peak Demand is an executive recruiting firm focused in renewable energy and power generation. For more than 16 years, we have partnered with solar and energy storage companies to identify and place the leaders who build and grow clean energy businesses.

Our team works with executives across development, engineering, construction, manufacturing, and sales to solve one of the industry’s biggest challenges: finding the right people to drive growth.
