North Sky Capital has appointed Dale Freudenberger as an operating partner.
Freudenberger co-founded FLS Energy in Asheville, N.C., in 2006 and served as the company’s first COO. Freudenberger helped grow FLS into the largest builder, owner and operator of solar thermal systems in the United States and a leading integrator and owner of solar photovoltaic systems in North Carolina.
