Argand Energy Solutions L.L.C., a solar energy development and finance company based in Charlotte, N.C., has expanded into New York and the tristate metropolitan market with the recent opening of an office at 777 Westchester Ave. in White Plains.
The regional office is run by Anthony Conklin, a former employee of Mercury Solar Systems in Westchester who recently joined Argand as vice president for business development. Conklin most recently was regional sales director at ESI Power Corp.
Argand officials in a press release said Conklin will focus on developing business among public entities and commercial clients. Erik Lensch, Argand president and CEO, said the company looks forward “to working with commercial and industrial clients in the region to help them convert their rooftop, land and parking areas into income-generating assets while at the same time creating clean energy jobs in the region.”
Conklin noted that with New York state committing $1 billion for a solar energy development initiative, “Solar is more affordable than ever before.”
