About Yezin Taha
Yezin Taha is the founder and CEO of Nevados Engineering. Nevados provides a comprehensive All Terrain Tracker (ATT) solution for the solar industry that eliminates the need for grading on almost any site. Yezin founded Nevados to enable installation of solar power plants in less time, at lower costs, and in more locations.The solar industry initially developed around flat land installations. Because of this, software tools and structural equipment necessary to install on non-flat land were not developed. Nevados is committed to breaking the flat land paradigm and has developed the tools to do so. Through our three core values of Transparency, Leadership, and Partnership, we work with our suppliers, staff, and customers to lead the solar industry into the future of non-flat terrain.
Experience

Aug 2014 — Present · San Francisco, CA, US
Nevados provides a new Single Axis Tracker solution for the solar industry that makes tracker installation on natural terrain as easy as on flat and graded land. The Nevados All Terrain Tracker (ATT) tracker has passed UL3703 testing and has completed a bankability study with DNV-GL.The Nevados ATT can fit to natural flat, rolling, and sloped terrain without the need for grading the land. The installer no longer has to remove the fragile topsoil at the installation site, or spend budget returning the site to its natural state. This reduces the construction schedule, eases permitting, and reduces the likelihood for delays and complications during install. Further, this capability reduces construction costs by up to 15%, increases site options by 3X, and increases power generation from each module by up to 32%.Nevados is funded and supported by the Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) and the California Energy Commission through funding awards totaling $3.8M.
