Ryan Saffarini, CTO

Ryan earned his chemistry degree from the Honors College at the University of Utah. After Graduating, Ryan focused his passion and aptitude for science on the important mission of halting climate change. A move to sunny Arizona inspired Ryan to found Pure Energy LLC with the goal of bringing affordable solar energy to every Arizona rooftop.

In a few short years, Pure Energy grew from its humble origins to a leading residential solar installer converting more than 100 homes a month to clean solar energy across two states, Arizona, Florida and North Carolina. In 2023, after years of successful collaborations, Pure Energy and Sun Valley Solar Solutions merged. Together the companies represent a combined footprint of nearly 16,000 commercial and residential solar projects, or more than 171 MW of clean solar energy production.

As CTO at Sun Valley Solar Solutions, Ryan drives the development and integration of cutting-edge technologies that enhance business operational efficiencies while also improving the customer experience and education.

“I believe that consumers will always choose sustainable alternatives when given clear unbiased information. I love seeing homeowners light up when they realize that saving money and saving the planet are not mutually exclusive endeavors.”
