Active Energies Solar Wins 2025 “Best Place to Work” Award from Vail Valley Partnership

May 11, 2025 — Active Energies Solar is proud to announce that we have been named the 2025 “Best Place to Work” by the Vail Valley Partnership. This recognition celebrates our commitment to creating a workplace where employees thrive, both professionally and personally.

“This award is a reflection of our team’s dedication to building a culture where people are supported, challenged, and appreciated,” said Rich Clubine, owner of Active Energies Solar. “We believe that when our employees feel valued, they can deliver the best service to our customers and make a positive impact in our community.”

At Active Energies Solar, we prioritize work-life balance by offering four-day workweeks, allowing our employees to enjoy more time with family and the beautiful Colorado outdoors. Our comprehensive benefits include paid time off, healthcare subsidies, and gym memberships, supporting the well-being of our staff.

We invest in our employees’ futures through profit sharing and 401(k) matching, ensuring that their hard work contributes to their long-term financial security. Recognizing the challenges of local housing, we’ve also provided below-market rent housing options to ease this burden.

Professional growth is a cornerstone of our culture. We offer on-the-job training, leadership development, and education reimbursements to help our employees advance in their careers. Beyond our workplace, we’re dedicated to our community, exemplified by our $65,000 solar array donation to Brush Creek Elementary, powering their greenhouse classroom and eliminating the need for natural gas heating.

With a 90% employee retention rate in 2024, we take pride in the supportive and inclusive environment we’ve cultivated. This award is a testament to the dedication and values of our entire team.
