We’re excited to share that GenPro Energy Solutions has been featured in International Business Times in an article titled “GenPro Energy Solutions: Building Community-Scale Energy Infrastructure with Discipline and Vision.”
The feature explores GenPro’s journey from its founding in 2006 as a solar water pumping distributor in South Dakota, to becoming a fully integrated Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) firm delivering community-scale renewable energy projects across the country.
The article highlights several pillars that define how GenPro operates:
A disciplined, integrated approach to project delivery GenPro’s civil, mechanical, and electrical teams collaborate from the earliest design conversations through to commissioning — ensuring decisions are grounded in construction realities, not just drawings.
Investment in people GenPro has built a robust workforce through apprenticeship programs in electrical work and heavy equipment operations. Career advancement from within is a core part of the company’s culture — including CEO Sara May, who rose through governmental affairs and finance before leading the organization.
Commitment to communities From local hiring to partnerships with regional suppliers and support for conservation initiatives, GenPro treats its project sites as long-term investments in the rural communities they serve.
As founder Dwight Patterson puts it: “That mindset of curiosity and discipline still guides us.”
And CEO Sara May adds: “Energy infrastructure is essential to modern life. Our responsibility is to build systems that perform reliably and create value for owners and communities.”
