Todd Ahern is transforming how the solar industry does business. As Founder and CEO of The Megawatt Group, Todd’s vision is to build the most efficient, transparent, and scalable solar marketplace in the U.S.- one that streamlines procurement, eliminates bottlenecks, and accelerates transactions. The Megawatt Group empowers Tier-1 solar module manufacturers to scale without the overhead, acting as a high-performance outsourced sales partner across sales, marketing, legal, and logistics.

Todd began his solar career over a decade ago after earning his MBA from The George Washington University School of Business. During his nine-year tenure at a leading module manufacturer, he closed over 600 deals totaling 1.3GW and $671M in revenue, gaining deep insight into both the explosive growth and inefficiencies in the solar supply chain.

Since founding The Megawatt Group, Todd has led the company to remarkable growth: more than 1,300 module deals closed, 1.4GW sold, and $464M in revenue generated in 6 years.  Under his leadership, the company has earned repeated National recognition-including a top 100 spot on The Financial Times’ Fastest Growing Companies in the Americas list in both 2024 (#70) and 2025 (#97), back-to-back rankings on the Inc. 5000, and 3 years in a row on the Inc. Regionals (#39 in 2024).  And in 2024, Energy Tech Review named The Megawatt Group a “Top Renewable Energy Services Company” for its data-driven, customer-centric approach to module sales.

Ahern remains hands-on across departments while relentlessly pushing toward his ultimate goal – to build the “Amazon” of the solar industry. By creating a seamless digital marketplace and offering end-to-end support, he’s redefining how solar buyers and sellers connect, transact, and scale in today’s fast-evolving clean energy economy.

“I believe the next era of clean energy will be defined by how fast we can connect supply with demand,” says Ahern. “That’s where The Megawatt Group excels.”
