I designed and implemented energy efficiency/demand management incentive programs for electric utilities. I managed the FinAnswer Express, PacifiCorp's largest commercial and industrial DSM program, operating in 5 states. It was a 5 year contract worth $18MM and in 2011 my team and I over-delivered on the contracted energy savings and were responsible for delivering over 47M kWh. This is a lot of energy saved, and it led to increased revenue for both Nexant and PacifiCorp.
