BayWa r.e. Americas

Introducing BayWa r.e. Remote Communities! 🙌  This new initiative, introduced this year by our own remote team members, brings together colleagues from across the country for in-person meetups, truly embracing our coast-to-coast presence.  👥 These events feature activities that reflect the local identity of the cities our team members live in. Through these gatherings, we aim to foster collaboration, build relationships, and create a supportive network for our remote workforce.  Shout out to Diana C. and Jenette Sears for working on this initiative. 👏 #WeEffectChange #RemoteCommunities #Collaboration #Community

In the south of Texas, our team visited one of our solar farms to learn more about agrivoltaics.  🐑 While the area surrounding this solar farm is mostly woody plants, the solar farm is covered in native grasses, which makes it the perfect environment for sheep to graze in.  ☀️ Combining solar farms with agricultural activities does not only benefit the communities, but also provides shade and shelter for the sheep, while improving soil health and enhancing overall land use.  At BayWa r.e., we believe that sustainable land management and renewable energy drive each other forward. As agrivoltaics is gaining traction on a global scale, we strive to collaborate with our communities and local partners to benefit them and the energy sector. #WeEffectChange #Agrivotaics #SolarGrazing #Sheep   

The Americas team bid farewell to one of our BayWa r.e. Groundbreakers, Axel Veeser. After 15 years in renewables and 5 years establishing the team in the Americas, Axel led us to incredible milestones.    Axel is a groundbreaker in renewables, and we made a video about his impressive career. Watch it here!    As Axel moves back to BayWa r.e. headquarters in Munich, we thank him for his support and leadership (and soccer skills!). Best of luck as you "kick off" the next chapter, Axel!    #WeEffectChange #Groundbreakers #Americas

Our team gathered in Buena Park for the annual company picnic. This year we spent the day at Knott's Berry Farm, giving the event a whole new spin (literally). Highlight of the day? Snoopy himself made a surprise visit to our group! 🎢 A big thank you Tammie Harlan for planning and organizing this successful event. We also extend our gratitude to everyone who joined us from across the Americas, including those who brought their families to share the fun! 🇺🇸   #WeEffectChange #CompanyPicnic #Teamwork

The BESS sector is experiencing remarkable growth, as it is the only grid-connected technology capable of collecting excess energy and redistributing it when it is needed the most. ⚡️   As we face increasing energy demand, BESS are essential for enhancing grid reliability and resilience. It ensures stable power for communities, prevents blackouts during severe weather events, and integrates high levels of renewable energy into the grid.   Investing in battery energy storage is a crucial step to optimize grid performance and lower costs. Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), BESS can also take advantage of tax credits to further reduce costs. Whether as standalone or integrated with existing assets, BESS is a versatile and essential component of our energy infrastructure.   #WeEffectChange #BESS #BatteryEnergyStorage

Our developers travel to all parts of America, connecting with the land and the communities we serve. Recently, instead of a regular team activity, they went horseback riding with Whispering Woods, a local riding stable near one of our Kentucky projects. 🐴 We cherish our agricultural roots and the tradition of working with the land. This unique experience reminds us of the deep connection between renewable energy and the legacy of farmland and is a powerful reminder that our work is more than just technology and innovation. 🌾 Thank you, Whispering Woods, for the amazing tour! #WeEffectChange #TeamBuilding #Farmland #Legacy
