Streamlining Environmental Permitting in Clean Energy Development with Robin Laine, CEO of Transect EP 135
Welcome to the Clean Power Hour! On today’s show, we are joined by Robin Laine, CEO of Transect. Transect empowers solar and wind energy developers to take control of the environmental permitting process, delivering due diligence in minutes - not weeks or months.

Robin served as a field biologist, project manager, division director, and national program manager for local, regional, and national environmental consulting firms. In addition to advising her clients on environmental requirements, Robin established in-house natural resource compliance processes for numerous enterprise energy companies. She gave presentations across the U.S. educating various industries on managing federal and state environmental regulations.
She currently leads Transect and its mission to accelerate how we consume environmental data now and into the future.
