Arch Solar is relocating its headquarters from Plymouth to Milwaukee.
A new 14,000-square-foot facility is expected to house approximately 45% of Arch Solar’s 150 employees, with plans to add 30 new jobs.
“This strategic move reflects the growing demand for renewable energy solutions here in Milwaukee and across the state,” said Jolynn Van Ginkel, vice president of Arch Solar. “We’re well-positioned to help our customers make the transition to a cleaner, more sustainable future.”
Arch Solar was founded in 2003 in Plymouth and has offices in Milwaukee, Madison and Plymouth. It works with residential, commercial and utility customers.
“The expansion in Milwaukee underscores our commitment to supporting the city of Milwaukee’s Climate and Equity plan by expanding renewable energy access across the city,” Van Ginkel said. “By making solar energy more accessible and affordable for all residents –especially in underserved neighborhoods – we’re not just reducing the carbon footprint, we’re lowering energy costs, creating green jobs and building a more resilient city for generations to come.”
Arch Solar has worked on a variety of high-profile Milwaukee projects, including the Baird Center, Milwaukee Public Museum, Hunger Task Force and MLK Library. The company has also worked with various Bliffert Lumber and CH Coakley locations.
Arch Solar is a sustainability partner of the Milwaukee Bucks. The company also supports a variety of associations and nonprofits, including RENEW Wisconsin, Midwest Renewable Energy Association, Focus on Energy, Grow Solar Greater Milwaukee, Habitat for Humanity, Hunger Task Force and more.
