ABOUT ANISH SILWAL

I specialize in the full-cycle technical development of utility-scale solar PV and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects, from greenfield site identification through EPC handoff.At Recurrent Energy, I serve as technical lead across a multi-state portfolio covering Colorado, Illinois, North Carolina, California, Arizona, New Jersey, Georgia, and Arkansas. My work sits at the intersection of engineering and project management: evaluating site feasibility, preparing conceptual site layouts, electrical design, and single-line diagrams, building energy production models, identifying and mitigating technical risks, managing third-party consultants, preparing EPC RFPs, and coordinating across development, permitting, power marketing, real estate, and construction management teams.Prior to Recurrent, I led the technical development of a 700+ MWdc PV and 500+ MWac BESS portfolio at Proteus Power across ERCOT and AESO markets, and built my foundation in PV design at Ontility (Houston) and Sunfarmer (Nepal), where I was part of the team that pioneered the first bi-directional net-metering solar PPA in the country. A few things I care deeply about in this work: 1. Technical risk management: I identify site-specific hazards early in the development cycle, including flooding, seismic activity, hail, land subsidence, and corrosion, and translate findings into clear mitigation strategies before they become expensive problems or sources of sunk costs. Value engineering: The best layouts are not just technically correct. They are optimized for LCOE, constructability, and long-term performance. Cross-functional clarity: Development engineering sits at the center of a complex web of teams. Structured deliverables and clear communication keep projects on track.
