CHARLESTON, S.C., March 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Palmetto, a rapidly growing technology company accelerating the national adoption of clean energy, announced today that it is acknowledging the transformational, multi-year business contributions of Chief Technology Officer ("CTO") Jared Wray by creating a new position for him - the post of Palmetto co-founder. Wray, whose full title is now CTO and co-founder, is credited with accelerating Palmetto's technology evolution to an online clean energy marketplace. 

"The first time I met with Jared and shared my technology vision for Palmetto with him, Jared was able to lay out a game plan to transform our technology offering," stated Chris Kemper, Palmetto founder and Chief Executive Officer. "From there, he led a team to develop an end-to-end software and logistics platform that is changing the industry. Now, Palmetto's digital marketplace is an end-to-end solution that is revolutionizing and democratizing the utility industry. For us, this is just the beginning of great things to come."
