Noel Lafayette
Project Manager, Solar Energy Executive, and Founder in Weston, CT 06883
Noel Lafayette, founder of SHR Energy Management, LLC is a renowned leader in the solar energy industry. His array of expertise includes financing, development, policy, and origination of commercial, industrial and small scale utility projects spanning the North East of the United States. He set forth in 2012 to establish his own company providing energy at a more competitive cost amidst Weston Connecticut's budding solar energy industry. Consequently, building owners have no upfront costs, creating an affordable financing option, now commonplace today but revolutionary at the time.
Although Lafayette has accumulated numerous successful ventures employing his expertise surrounding this alternative energy, his humble beginnings arose from an investment banking business. Among the originators of distressed real estate and private lending, Noel was positioned perfectly to forge complex transactions to fund projects in the solar industry's infancy. Funding options such as a Solar Power Purchasing Agreement rooted in these transactions would later transform the solar energy business landscape. This influential financing model enabled building owners to leverage investor funds during the construction of the solar power system through an LLC.
Noel’s holistic approach to solar power consulting stems from the vast knowledge cultivated from 13 years of experience, encompassing multiple facets of the rapidly expanding solar industry. SHR Energy Management with Noel at the helm is capable of leveraging esteemed partnerships to facilitate funding. More importantly, Noel seeks innovative ways to align the impending demand of alternative energy with complex policy reform by leading by influence as Chair of Government Affairs and Policy on the Board of Directors of the Solar Connecticut Trade Association. Through this position, he has emerged as a Thought Leader, often interacting and contributing to evolving policies with state representatives and agencies.
Mr. Lafayette demonstrates his strong interpersonal, communication, and presentation skill in his work with clients and in consulting as a strategic, proactive, decisive, and client-centric consultant. These executive-level traits are what earn Noel Lafayette countless impressive client testimonials. His mission is to educate many more executives, business owners, and leaders about the importance of embracing solar power as a viable energy source of the future.
