Figueroa joins Aspen Power from Verogy, where he was Co-Founder and Chief Financial Officer, leading capital raising and all finance functions for the solar developer. Previously, he was Chief Financial Officer at Greenskies Renewable Energy, where he was a key member of the deal team that completed the company's sale to Clean Focus Corporation in 2017.

Earlier in his career, Figueroa spent nearly a decade at Goldman Sachs, managing investment portfolios for the firm’s foundation, endowment, and ultra-high-net-worth clients.

“Alex has built and financed distributed generation companies from the ground up, and he knows what it takes to turn good projects into lasting value,” said Michael Sheehan, Chief Executive Officer of Aspen Power. “He has raised capital, closed transactions, and led finance teams that move at the pace this industry demands. As we grow our solar and storage portfolio, Alex gives us the financial leadership needed to deliver for our partners with speed and discipline. His arrival completes a leadership team built for Aspen’s next chapter.”

“Aspen has assembled a proven portfolio, a talented team, and a clear strategy at exactly the moment distributed energy matters most. That combination is rare, and it’s why I’m here,” said Figueroa. “The job in front of us now is making sure the finance function keeps pace with the platform, so that every project we develop, build, and operate delivers real value for the communities and partners we serve.”

Figueroa's appointment completes the recent build-out of Aspen Power's executive leadership team, following the appointments of Michael Sheehan as Chief Executive Officer and Jason Patsio as Chief Commercial Officer.
