Dustin Looper

Dustin facilitates all aspects of our solar developments here at Paddle Energy, from initial conversations with Landowners through construction completion.  His career spans 15+ years in the commercial real estate industry where he led projects totaling more than 10,000,000 square feet and thousands of acres.  Project work has ranged from large solar developments to heavy manufacturing, land conservation, and everything in between. Being an outdoor enthusiast, from a farming community, and part of his family’s generational land holdings, Dustin is both sympathetic and opportunistic when it comes to developing land for our solar projects throughout the United States.  Understanding the Landowner’s goals, local processes, and having years of development experience makes for a smooth delivery and a good experience.  Dustin is very focused on his work, and it is important to him that all involved parties receive clear communication and have their expectations met.

While not at work or spending most of his free time with his wife and two young children, Dustin can be found traveling the world, backpacking the Blue Ridge/Appalachian Mountains, researching seemingly useless topics, or obsessively maintaining his backyard veggie garden.
