Rue Phillips, a Shropshire-born entrepreneur with over 30 years of experience leading renewable energy innovations worldwide, has returned to his roots to launch Genren, a cutting-edge renewable energy company. Combining success in the renewable energy sector with a celebrated musical career, Phillips brings a unique blend of innovation and creativity to his latest venture.

Phillips, who co-founded the largest independent solar operations and maintenance company in the U.S., has built and managed multiple multi-million-dollar renewable energy enterprises. Widely regarded as a pioneer in the industry, he developed a standardized commissioning protocol now widely used across the global solar industry. His expertise extends beyond solar, across the renewable energy sector; he co-founded a top-tier EV network operator and asset management platform and was named one of the California Business Journal’s “Top Ten Entrepreneurs to Watch in 2024.”

“Launching Genren in Shropshire feels like coming full circle,” said Phillips. “Our mission is to help UK homes and businesses reduce costs, lower their carbon footprints, and achieve energy independence. By leveraging our decades of experience, we’re driving the UK’s transition to a net-zero future.”

Beyond renewable energy, Phillips has an unexpected claim to fame: his global music career. Over the years, he has collaborated with legendary artists such as Ozzy Osbourne, ELO, The Eagles, and Bob Dylan.
