Happy #NationalDogDay! At Scout, we're celebrating our furry friends and the planet they love to explore. Let's work together to create a greener world for them to enjoy, one where every walk is a breath of fresh air.

As our 2024 summer internship program comes to a close, which saw 24 (!) talented professionals join Scout for the past 3 months, Marketing Intern Madeline Loughlin sat down with her fellow interns to hear about how their Summer with Scout wrapped up. Read about it below! https://lnkd.in/g9p3WTwE

This past weekend, six Scouts rode 68 miles and climbed over 5,300 feet in the B Strong Ride on mountain roads near Boulder, Colorado to support local cancer care organizations, Boulder Community Health Center for Integrative Care (CIC), Live By Living Foundation, and Camp Kesem at CU Boulder. Cancer has impacted the lives of so many of our fellow Scouts, families, and friends. Thank you to everyone who rose to the challenge of the ride and contributed to raising funds for a great cause! Please visit the below link to the donation page for B Strong Ride to support the work of these great organizations.  https://lnkd.in/eyE9EZAT

At Scout, we match a vibrant culture with meaningful work in the renewables industry. There are plenty of reasons to work at Scout, but we highlighted our favorites in our latest blog! https://lnkd.in/ge-dfpsz

Our projects represent more than clean power generation; they also represent powerful economic vehicles for the communities in which we work. Scout has brought 1 GW of projects into operation that will generate more than $160 million in economic benefits for their communities over the expected operating life of the generating equipment, contributing to schools, hospitals, infrastructure, and other local needs. These impacts, as well as our charitable contributions, will continue to increase as we build out our substantial pipeline. A clean energy future is a prosperous future for all!

Last week, Scouts in Texas working onsite at our under-construction Markum Solar Farm joined Markum contractor Mortenson to celebrate 365 Days of Safe Work. The celebration featured a raffle, catered lunch on-site, and an opportunity to prove to the Markum crew that their safety achievements are recognized, celebrated, and rewarded. Thank you to the Mortenson team for hosting this celebration and for your unwavering commitment to safety excellence!

This week, our interns had the chance to visit Jack's Solar Farm. To hear more about how our interns have been making an impact this summer, check out our latest blog post:

Whether developing wind farms or watering schedules, Scout employees are always working to create a greener future. Earlier this month, our new Scout Garden Committee hosted its inaugural summer planting event to promote a greener, more connected workplace, creating a shared space for employees to interact with nature and each other in a more meaningful way.
