Seth Baruch is National Director for Energy and Utilities and is responsible for KP's on-site and off-site renewable energy programs. KP’s renewable program is installing more than 100 MW of solar generation at hospitals and medical office buildings throughout California. In addition, Kaiser Permanente is contracting to buy the energy output of more than 330 MW of off-site wind and solar projects in and around California. These initiatives are a large part of KP’s overall strategy to get to carbon neutrality, which was achieved in 2020. Seth also manages the fuel cell program (35 MW) as well as the battery storage and EV charger programs.  KP currently has more than 1,300 EV chargers on its properties.  He also raised the funding for – and helped implement – a microgrid installation at the Richmond Medical Center, the first renewable microgrid in the State of California.  A second microgrid project at the Ontario Medical Center is currently under construction.
