Conti Solar Announces Company Rebranding and Name Change to CS Energy

Conti Solar, a national solar engineering, procurement and construction (EPC), O&M and energy storage development company, announced today a new corporate identity. The organization will be known as CS Energy, and the rebranding will encompass a new logo, tagline and web address (http://www.CSEnergy.com).

“The new name, CS Energy, emphasizes our status as a fast-growing integrated energy company that develops, designs, and builds optimized projects in the solar, storage, and emerging energy industries,” said Matthew Skidmore, CEO of CS Energy. “CS Energy pays tribute to Conti Solar’s successful track record, and the rebranding of Conti Solar as CS Energy serves to highlight the dramatic opportunities ahead providing high-value renewable energy solutions that maximize the return on investment for our customers.”

In April 2018, Conti Solar, operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Conti Group, received a strategic investment from funds managed by Ares Management Corporation’s (NYSE: ARES) Infrastructure and Power Group (AIPG), which acquired a majority ownership in the company.

The new company brand and identity is effective immediately and the rebranding will have no impact on any business operations, management, or the corporate structure.
