Solectria Renewables, LLC, a leading U.S. PV inverter manufacturer and wholly owned subsidiary of Yaskawa America, Inc., announced that it has been included in The Boston Globe Magazine and The Commonwealth Institute’s (TCI) annual Top 100 Women-Led Businesses in Massachusetts. Honored companies were selected based on revenue or operating budget, workplace and management diversity, innovation and number of full-time employees.

“This year’s list includes female leaders from virtually all sectors, including healthcare, energy, technology, finance, education, and retail,” said Globe Magazine Editor, Susanne Althoff. “It’s a testament to the diversity of industry and opportunity that exists in Massachusetts and also to the heights to which women can ascend.”

For the past 13 years, TCI has compiled the list to highlight the achievements of Massachusetts women. This marks the second year of its partnership with the Globe Magazine, and represents a more holistic approach to creating the list. This year’s list includes nonprofits as well as for-profit organizations, and incorporates new ranking data. Although revenue or operating budget is still an essential component, workplace and management diversity, innovation and number of full-time employees also played a part in the rankings.

“It’s no surprise to us that women are the fuel helping drive the economic engine in Massachusetts,” said Aileen Gorman, executive director of TCI. “There is no sector where women leaders are not represented; we and the Boston Globe Magazine are excited to celebrate this, and we hope this also inspires other women to strive for leadership positions in our region.”

“I am honored and humbled by this recognition, especially given the vast number of companies led by exemplary women,” said Anita Worden, CEO of Solectria Renewables. “Solectria is one of few manufacturers on the list and the only renewable energy company.”
