Ryan Warner
Co-Founder

Ryan Warner is a native North Dakotan. Raised in Bismarck, he graduated Bismarck High in 1996 and holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Philosophy and Religion from the University of North Dakota. After living on the East Coast for almost a decade, he moved back in 2014 with his wife and young daughter to be closer to family. Since college, Ryan has been interested in renewable energy technology, community-led entrepreneurship, supporting "local" businesses and horizontal organizational structures. 

After working in the insurance industry in Bismarck, Ryan reconnected with an old college friend - James Kambeitz - to co-found a solar-based business. Buoyed by the strength of their convictions to help develop the ND Solar Industry from the ground up, both gave up their current jobs to pursue this new solar-based venture - Lightspring, LLC - in January 2018. 

Over the last 2 years, Lightspring has installed nearly 100kw of solar PV and battery storage. Led by a cooperative and collaborative spirit, Lightspring seeks out win-win scenarios that create solutions that are greater than the sum of their parts. Instead of simply putting up as much solar as possible, Lightspring strives to understand a client’s needs and current power consumption profile in order to make the best recommendation for each client. Unlike some solar developers, Lightspring stresses the vital importance of investing in energy efficiency/conservation measures along with energy production/storage.

Ryan views each collaboration as an opportunity to both learn something new as well as freely share what he has already learned. To these ends, he has led solar installer training sessions to create a local workforce, and works with local Indigenous-led organizations to help bring about energy awareness, sovereignty and self-sufficiency. At Lightspring, Ryan focuses on energy policy, regulatory issues, grant writing opportunities, utility relations, and new market development.
