Soltage is a company started up several years ago by several Yale students who were seeking to help businesses and institutions save on their energy costs through fixed rate pricing for clean renewable energy – solar power.

Recently featured on the Sundance Channel, Soltage founders Jesse Grossman (CEO) and Vanessa Stewart (COO) are forging a new solutions pathway for helping people save on their energy costs.
