Industry veteran brings more than two decades of power sector experience as Swift Current scales development to meet rising U.S. electricity demand
HOUSTON and BOSTON, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Swift Current Energy (Swift Current) today announced that Scott Koziar has joined the company as Chief Development Officer and a member of its executive management team. Koziar will lead Swift Current’s development organization and advance its portfolio of utility-scale solar, wind and energy storage projects as data centers, advanced manufacturing and other large loads drive the need for new power generation across the United States.
Koziar brings more than 20 years of experience in the power sector, most recently serving as Chief Development Officer at Apex Clean Energy, where he oversaw a 63 GW pipeline of utility-scale wind, solar and battery storage projects. During his tenure, Apex commercialized 12 GW of projects now in construction or operation.
“Development is at the heart of what we do at Swift Current, and Scott is a proven leader who knows how to build teams and move complex projects from concept to operation,” said Michael Arndt, Chief Executive Officer of Swift Current Energy. “That experience is especially valuable today. The power market is changing quickly, demand is accelerating, and customers need solutions at a scale we haven’t seen in decades. Scott’s leadership will help us move faster and capitalize on the opportunities we see across our portfolio.”
“I’m thrilled to be joining Swift Current and grateful for the opportunity to work alongside such an experienced team,” said Koziar. “What attracted me to the company was its relationship driven culture and its track record of taking on ambitious, complex projects. With electricity demand reshaping the opportunity for new energy development across the country, I’m excited to build on that track record and help move the next generation of projects forward.”
Rick Miller, who has served as Interim Chief Development Officer since August, will continue with Swift Current as Senior Vice President of Development and work closely with Koziar to advance the company’s development portfolio.
