Find Energy & Solar leads your competitors can't.

Reach commercial and utility-scale solar developers as projects move toward construction.

Commercial and utility-scale solar and storage is built by developers, EPCs and independent power producers whose buying follows the project pipeline: origination, interconnection, financing, procurement and construction. The people who matter are project developers, procurement leads and construction managers, not homeowners or rooftop installers. Updately watches project hiring, industry posts about interconnection and procurement, and company tech stacks, so you reach the team as a project moves into the phase where it needs you.

Buying signals

The signals that predict a Energy & Solar deal

Updately watches job boards, LinkedIn, Reddit, X and company websites for these moments, then finds the person behind each one.

Hiring signal

Development, procurement and construction roles

Each hire tracks a project phase: developers and interconnection managers mean a growing pipeline, procurement leads mean equipment buying, site superintendents mean construction is close. Match your pitch to the phase.

Example job post
“Hiring: Director of Procurement — lead module, tracker and inverter sourcing for a multi-GW utility-scale solar and storage pipeline.”
Social signal

Developers posting about interconnection and supply

Developers and EPCs discuss interconnection queues, tariff uncertainty and equipment lead times on LinkedIn and Reddit. Updately connects those posts to the company and the person behind them.

Example post
“Two of our projects just got hit with a big network upgrade cost in the latest study. How are other developers handling restudies?”
Social signal

Project milestones and financing announcements

Notice to proceed, financial close, new PPAs and commercial operation dates are announced publicly. Each is a company about to spend on construction, equipment or operations.

Example post
“Thrilled to announce financial close on our 150 MW solar plus storage project. Construction starts this spring.”
Tech stack signal

Software and data tools in use

See which GIS, project management, CRM and monitoring tools a developer or EPC runs, so you know whether you're replacing a tool or filling a gap.

Example website scan
“Developer's job posts mention managing land and interconnection data in spreadsheets and a generic CRM, with no dedicated development platform.”

FAQ

Selling into Energy & Solar: common questions

Who buys at a solar developer or EPC?+

Development leads and VPs of development own pipeline, land and interconnection tools and consultants. Procurement directors buy modules, inverters and trackers, construction managers buy labour and site services, and asset management directors buy O&M, monitoring and reporting once projects are operating.

How is this different from the residential solar page?+

This page covers commercial, community and utility-scale developers, EPCs and power producers. Residential solar installers sell to homeowners, hire salespeople and buy very different tools, so they're on their own page.

What signals mean a project is close to buying?+

Procurement and construction hiring, notice to proceed, financial close and PPA announcements are the clearest. Interconnection study results and permitting milestones mean consultants and engineering services are needed sooner.

Can I target battery storage developers only?+

Yes. Describe your ideal customer in plain English, such as 'standalone battery storage developers in the US', and every lead is scored against it. Job titles, project announcements and company descriptions make storage-focused developers easy to separate.
