Good Energy Solutions, a leading provider of solar energy and electrical services in Kansas and Missouri, has been awarded a 2025 Foundation Award by Lawrence Business Magazine. This marks the seventh time the company has received this prestigious recognition, which honors local businesses demonstrating significant growth and commitment to the community.
The Foundation Award celebrates businesses in Douglas County that have been operational for at least three years and have achieved notable employment growth. In 2024, Good Energy Solutions expanded its team, culminating in 57 employees by year’s end. This growth was bolstered by the strategic acquisition of Laven Electric in October 2024, enhancing the company’s capacity to meet the rising demand for renewable energy solutions.
“Receiving the Foundation Award for the seventh time is a testament to our team’s dedication and the community’s support,” said Malcolm Proudfit, CEO of Good Energy Solutions. “We’re committed to advancing sustainable energy solutions and contributing positively to our local economy.”
The award ceremony was held at Maceli’s Banquet Hall & Catering in Lawrence, with representation from Good Energy Solutions’ leadership, including Shana Good, Malcolm Proudfit, Amory Bottorff, Michael Schumann, Jeff Dunn, and Zac Brough. Prior to the event, CEO Malcolm Proudfit discussed the company’s mission and growth on KLWN radio.
