FOUNDING MEMBERS

Brad Meikle
Mr. Meikle founded Renewable Analytics LLC in 2008, a Solar PV industry research firm based in San Francisco after two years of following the solar industry. The mission of Renewable Analytics is to provide reliable forecasts of supply, demand and pricing for key components. Industry research firms serving the solar industry tend to provide market forecasts that are updated just annually, too infrequent for a volatile growth industry. Renewable Analytics uses its founder’s experience in following commodities to employ elasticity of demand and reflexivity analysis rationale. Prior to Renewable Analytics, Mr. Meikle followed the semiconductor and technology hardware industries. Mr. Meikle graduated with honors from SUNY Albany in 1996,  B.S., Finance.
