Renewable Energy

The Eide Bailly Difference
Eide Bailly has worked with renewable energy clients for more than 15 years, and serves nearly 70 ethanol, biodiesel, wind, solar and biomass clients. Our clients’ combined production capacity accounts for approximately 14 percent of the U.S. ethanol production. Clients benefit from regular contact with senior level staff, and receive timely responses to questions as they arise throughout the year.

We use an industry team approach to client service. Members of our renewable energy team are selected for their deep understanding of the industry and their active involvement in industry groups, such as the National Society of Accountants for Cooperatives (NSAC) and the American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE). Our professionals understand the demands of the industry, including the challenges faced by management and the governing board during the various stages of business, which includes start-ups, ongoing operations, as well as mergers and acquisitions.
