Earthrise Energy seeks to power our world more responsibly, sustainably, and equitably than ever before. An independent power producer, Earthrise takes a holistic approach to the energy transition.  We leverage the existing transmission infrastructure of a portfolio of legacy fossil fuel generation plants to accelerate the deployment of renewable technologies. We acquire, develop, and operate power generation facilities that provide reliable electricity, support the decarbonizing grid, and meet the evolving needs of our customers and communities.
