UpTower is excited to announce that Steve Scott has joined our leadership team as Chief Growth Officer.
Steve brings decades of renewable energy leadership experience, including helping lead and scale nationally recognized renewable energy service organizations and overseeing large-scale wind and battery operations for one of the largest utility-backed renewable energy operators in the country. He has deep industry relationships, a proven track record of building high-performing teams, and a genuine passion for the people and partnerships that drive this industry forward.
His addition marks an important step forward as we continue building on the strong foundation our team has created through safety, quality, integrity, and people.
With Steve joining the organization, we are further strengthening our ability to support customers, expand long-term partnerships, invest in our people, and continue positioning UpTower for the next phase of growth within the renewable energy industry.
What makes this especially exciting is the combination of experienced leadership, an exceptional field and office team, and our award-winning training organization, recently recognized by the Global Wind Organisation (GWO) as the #1 Training Team in North America.
The future is bright for UpTower, our customers, and the people who move this company forward every day.

We’re always investing in our people and raising the standard for real-world training.

Every piece of equipment we bring in is focused on one goal — making sure our technicians are fully prepared before they ever step into the field.

Excited to add this new hub to our training program. Another step forward for our team.

Repower Work Across the Country 🇺🇸⚡

Over the past year, our team at UpTower has had the opportunity to support major repower projects across the U.S. from Texas, up through Northern Iowa, and all the way to California.

Across 4 wind farms and 3 different owners, we’ve been proud to bring the manpower and experience needed to help get these large-scale projects across the finish line.

Here’s what that looked like:
🔹 Large-scale labor support
🔹 Full MCE crews
🔹 Commissioning
🔹 Final owner walkdowns

But what stands out the most isn’t just the work — it’s the collaboration.

A few years ago, it would’ve been surprising to see multiple contractors and ISPs working side-by-side. Today, it’s becoming the norm — and it’s making the industry stronger.

👉 Over 50% of our work last year was supporting other ISPs and contractors as a partner on their projects.

Repower scopes are massive. It takes the right people, working together, to deliver the quality owners expect.

And honestly — it’s a great thing to be part of.

If you’re in the middle of a repower (or planning one) and need a team that can plug in and support at any level, we’re here to help.

Last week Jordan Bielefeld, our VP, had the opportunity again this year to attend the ACP Operations, Maintenance & Safety Conference (OMS 2026) in Orlando — joining more than 1,600 professionals from across the renewable energy industry focused on one common goal:
How do we continue improving the way wind assets are operated, maintained, and supported in the field?

The conversations around safety leadership, technician development, operational efficiency, and long-term asset performance were excellent. It’s always encouraging to see how many organizations are committed to pushing the industry forward.
At UpTower (www.uptower.com) those same priorities guide the work we do every day.

Over the past year our team has grown significantly, closing out the year with 70 traveling wind technicians supporting projects across the United States. Our crews are working directly with:
• Utilities and asset owners
• Independent service providers (ISPs)
• O&M providers
• Repower and major corrective projects
• Turnkey service scopes
• Supplemental labor and technical expertise when additional capacity is needed

Our focus has always been simple:
Provide highly capable technicians, deliver quality work, and operate safely while helping our partners keep their fleets running.

The demand for skilled technicians and reliable field support continues to grow across the industry, and it’s exciting to see how many organizations are investing in improving how renewable assets are maintained long term.
If we connected at OMS, it was great meeting you and having those conversations.
And if we didn’t get the opportunity to connect while in Orlando, I’d welcome the chance to continue the discussion.

Whether you're an owner, operator, ISP, or O&M provider, if you’re exploring ways to strengthen your technician support, project ex*****on, or field capabilities management and myself here at UpTower would be glad to be part of the conversation.
The wind industry continues to grow quickly, and strong partnerships between owners, operators, and service providers will be critical to supporting that growth.

Looking forward to connecting with more of you across the industry.

We want to give a big shoutout to the crew over at Mike Molstead Motors — especially Josh Molstead, Ryan Driscoll, and Jim Molstead. Over the last year and a half, we've completed 39 vehicle purchases through them for our business and a few personal ones as well. That kind of volume only happens when the service is truly exceptional.

We’ve worked with other dealerships in the past, but these guys continue to stand out. They’ve been friendly, professional, and extremely helpful through every transaction. No, not every single thing has been perfect — and I wouldn’t expect it to be — but what does matter is how they’ve handled any hiccups: quickly, professionally, and always doing right by us.

From trades, to purchases, to even buying some of our older trucks — they’ve made it all smooth and straightforward. If you’re looking for people who genuinely care about their customers and back it up with action, I can’t recommend them enough.
