About Lynn Jurich
Lynn Jurich, co-founder and former CEO of Sunrun, has been discussing her transition from the solar industry to women's health and longevity. In a December 2025 podcast appearance, she described founding the Female Longevity Institute and moving "from solar panels to stem cells, from kilowatts to epigenetic age." She stated that her new venture asks "what would it look like to design a health care system that actually works for women's biology ambitions and lifespans." In a July 2025 discussion, Jurich advocated for proactive preventive care for women, emphasizing stress management, sleep, and weightlifting as key interventions, and said she is "very optimistic and very hopeful" about changes happening in women's health. Jurich continues to serve as Executive Co-Chair of the Board at Sunrun. In a 2021 keynote, she described the company as "the nation's leading solar battery storage and energy services provider" and called for streamlining permitting and interconnection processes, which she termed "green tape." She has stated that rooftop solar in the U.S. is about half the price it is in other countries due to higher soft costs and regulatory friction. Jurich has also discussed Sunrun's work aggregating residential batteries into virtual power plants that can dispatch power to the grid, and she has said the company is "still early innings" in terms of what it will achieve.
