Sheldon Kimber is the Co-Founder and CEO of Intersect Power, a clean energy company that develops, owns, and operates some of the world’s largest grid-tied projects, delivering American-made, low-carbon solutions for global markets and co-located industrial facilities. Emily spoke to Sheldon about his journey from growing up in South Africa and Ohio, to studying at Kenyon College and going to business school, and eventually working in the trenches of clean energy development, where he formed a vision for fast, flexible infrastructure that challenges the status quo. That vision became Intersect Power, which he founded in 2016 to deliver large-scale clean electricity to the industries that need it most. Intersect has raised over $2 billion in equity, operates $4 billion in assets—including one of the largest battery fleets in the country—and is breaking ground on $9 billion more, with major customers like Google and Microsoft.
