Message to Shareholders
Correlate Energy Corp. believes that demand for renewables will continue to grow exponentially through 2030 and beyond. The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) expects the US solar industry to nearly triple in size over the next five years. According to U.S. Department of Energy (US DOE), the existing electrical infrastructure in the United States proves inadequate for accommodating the surging demand for renewable energy. As a result, the need for localized energy systems that can operate independently or in connection with the main power infrastructure, such as microgrids, will play a pivotal role in facilitating the ongoing transition to renewable energy in the United States.
“Correlate Energy Corp. is led by a team of rare and accomplished energy project experts, dedicated to addressing this burgeoning challenge. The embracing of distributed energy in the United States not only promises significant environmental benefits but also presents a large economic opportunity to unlock value for our shareholders,” said Todd Michaels, Chief Executive Officer of Correlate Energy Corp.
Massive institutional project investment funding and consistent long-term government incentives are key drivers of the decentralized energy trend in the United States. That combined with material electrical cost savings and robust customer demand create an unparalleled economic opportunity.

1 Correlate performs certain adjustments to GAAP revenue to approximate expected revenue from executed contracts in place, which are either under installation or pre-installation. Customer deposits represent cash that has been received from contracted customers but not yet recognized as revenue under GAAP. Additional contracted revenue represents any other expected revenue from contracted customers but certain milestones have not yet been achieved. Correlate considers non-GAAP revenue to be important indicators of the operational strength of the business because it indicates the value that each of the contracted projects will bring to the Company in the near term. All current projects under construction are expected to be completed within six months.
