Clint H. Carnell

Manage full-lifecycle development of utility-scale solar projects from early-stage siting and feasibility through commercial operation, including negotiation and execution of Generator Interconnection Agreements (GIAs) with transmission operators, support for commercial teams on structuring and closing long-term energy offtake agreements (PPAs), leadership of multi-jurisdictional permitting across local, state, and federal agencies, and coordination with finance to structure, diligence, and close project debt/equity. Responsibilities include interconnection studies and milestone management, environmental and land-use compliance, stakeholder and agency interface, schedule and risk control, and delivery of projects to COD in alignment with industry best practices for land use and project execution.

Drove schedules, budgets, and crew/subcontractor coordination from pre-con through closeout. Owned submittals, procurement, change orders, and cost control (forecasting to financial close), hitting targeted gross margins while maintaining QA/QC and safety. Managed client/GC/architect relationships, resolved site issues quickly, and kept work on spec and on time. Notable projects: Alta Dairies II (Wood Partners) mixed-use streetscape/amenities, ~$1.1M; Habitat Park (Habitat for Humanity) community park build-out, ~$1.5M.

Led Phase I ESAs and Phase II limited site investigations (soil/groundwater sampling, data validation, reporting) and managed hazardous materials work—spill response, asbestos/LBP surveys and abatement, and on-site air monitoring. Served at FPL’s Turkey Point Nuclear Plant during planned outages supporting pipefitters with personal/area asbestos air monitoring (PCM), calibration, documentation, and exposure controls in compliance with OSHA 1910.1001/1926.1101, NESHAP, and AHERA. Produced clear, defensible reports, improved field safety/compliance, and kept projects on scope, schedule, and budget
