OUR TEAM

SMALL TEAM, BIG EXPERIENCE

With a small team, we understand the value of our people and how they make the difference in the work we do. Each member of the Balanced Rock Power team brings an entrepreneurial spirit and love for the outdoors to work each day, and that’s what drives our vision for developing clean energy across the United States.

We believe in strong partnerships between those we work with and for — whether with our landowners, customers, or colleagues, we strive to develop strong relationships and value the mutual benefits those connections bring.

Businesses should always be more than profit. They need to re- invest in the community and have a positive impact. We’re dedicated to developing and doing so in a way that is beneficial for everyone.”
~ John Knight, CEO

Passionate about the environment

Our team lives for the outdoors (it shows with our headquarters being in Moab, UT!) — whether that’s meeting with our clients and landowners out on their property or getting out to enjoy the desert, mountains, plains, canyons or prairie where we live — and is committed to securing its future. Because our team members are located in Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Texas and the rest of the West, we are never far from our projects or the land that inspires us.

With deep expertise in renewable energy development — from early stage development through to operations — our team brings over 75 years of collective experience to the table.

Most of our team started at smaller start-ups that were purchased by larger energy companies, so they decided to make the move back to a small, focused, and nimble team that conducts itself with integrity and respect.”
