Dan Martin, whose Amped Solutions leverages experts in the design, construction, financing, and operation of commercial and industrial solar and energy storage projects. They own energy storage systems themselves and are quite familiar with the changing regulatory, tax, operations, maintenance, and monitoring challenges of this asset class. Working with world-class engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) firms, they can design, install, and maintain a photovoltaic and/or energy storage solution for your facilities to achieve maximum energy savings across your entire commercial real estate portfolio. As the team reached out to some amazing minds within the battery power business, they connected with the ever-growing Sunbelt Rentals unit in Richmond, California.

Marin IJ: Trump Administration Warns Marin Schools About DEI Programs
Carroll said that federal money, which accounts for approximately 10% of local schools’ total funding, is not used for DEI efforts. Carroll said the California Department of Education has not heard back from the federal government since issuing its responses. News of the ultimatum to Marin schools surfaced during the April 15 meeting of the Marin County Board of Education. Carroll provided members of the board with a brief summary of the DEI issue as part of the report that he provides at every meeting. The matter wasn’t agendized for discussion.

The San Francisco Standard: ‘Two Crazy Women’ Are Bucking Multiple Industry Trends: Expand to the Presidio, Then Mill Valley in Early 2026, Near the Seaplane Adventures Space Along the Waterfront
Margherita Sagan’s husband, Loring, is the cofounder and partner in Build, a firm that does residential development in San Francisco. He and Margherita recently bought a decrepit waterfront building in Mill Valley, at 242 Redwood Highway Frontage Road, where the Grateful Dead once practiced and still functions as the base for seaplane tours. It will house Piccino No. 3. Like everything Rogat and Sagan do, the Mill Valley project has been a little nuts, as any property dealing with water elements will be. But with the building permits secured, they hope things are on track for 2026.
