SolarCity Appoints Robert Kelly as CFO

SolarCity, a provider of solar financing, design, installation, monitoring and energy efficiency services, has appointed Robert Kelly as chief financial officer (CFO). Kelly, who brings more than 25 years of business and finance experience to SolarCity, will be responsible for managing the company’s financial affairs and will oversee its corporate and project finance and accounting organisations.
