Responsible for the sales, design and implementation of energy-efficiency and renewable-energy projects at this energy start-up. Groom Energy (Dalkia's predecessor) was named to the Inc. 5000 list for four consecutive years and acquired by DK Energy US, a subsidiary of EDF France, the world’s largest producer of electricity with $85 billion in revenue and 160,000 employees.Dalkia provides a full spectrum of energy and low-carbon solutions for corporations across the US. We consult, design, engineer, install, finance, monitor and maintain energy-technology projects for our customers, helping them save money and reduce their carbon footprint.Highlights:• Combined Heat and Power (CHP): Sold, designed, permitted, and implemented our first CHP system. Obtained utility rebates and managed renewable Alternative Energy Credit revenue. Managed maintenance of the CHP operating the equivalent of > 250,000 miles/year. • Solar PV: Sold, managed the design, permitted, and implemented our first PV system. Since that early start, I’ve been instrumental in developing and implementing multiple MW of roof-mounted solar projects, avoiding > 2,000 metric tons of CO2e per year.• Energy assessments: Building on a track record covering > 500 million cubic feet of refrigerated and freezer space and > 100 commercial and industrial sites, energy-efficiency measures identified and implemented by these assessments result in savings of multiple millions of dollars and associated carbon emissions as confirmed by sophisticated M+V metrics.• Energy storage: Evaluate and install battery, thermal and compressed-air storage systems taking advantage of federal, state, and local utility incentives to significantly reduce OPEX and avoid thousands of tons of CO2e emissions per year.

Assisting industrial clients to cost-effectively meet their health, safety and environmental regulatory requirements, while minimizing the effect on their production operations.Performed the evaluation of the technical and economic feasibility of alternative control technologies to control VOC and HAP emissions from waste tanks at a pharmaceutical chemical-manufacturing facility. Technologies examined included thermal and catalytic oxidation, flares, carbon adsorption, scrubbing, and condensation. Oversaw the conceptual design of equipment to minimize the costs of the client's operations. Recommended an innovative, cost-effective technology that uses liquid nitrogen as the cold source for a cryogenic condenser.

Company was originally known as Eastern Smelting and Refining. I was recruited to re-launch this $20-million precious metals refining company, change its focus to the industrial market, gain ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications and position it for sale. I inverted the market mix from 20/80 to 80/20 industrial/retail.

Complete profit-and-loss responsibility for a $10-million division of this $68-million company. Sold the company to Tetra Tech; now a $2.3 billion leading provider of consulting, engineering, and technical services worldwide.

A start-up consulting business sold to TRC Companies. Managed a $20-million revenue unit of this now $1.2 billion, privately held company.• Developed, trademarked and marketed a method of optimizing the design and operation of air-pollution-control systems - OPTIMIZE®. Created a unique, high-value service that differentiated this start-up company from its competitors.• Restructured a 77-product-line base to a 15-product-line base using weighted product mix, marketing and engineering cost/benefit analysis criteria. This effort better positioned the company in terms of its product definition and market presence while simultaneously and significantly reducing the cost of operations.• Developed, patented and marketed a new Vane Control System resulting in sales of over $1 million in the first year at margins of $300 thousand. This achievement confronted competition head-on and crushed threats from pirates.
