MHT's Galen Moore: Honoring innovation in New England
Following the Clean Energy Council Fellows
MHT managing editor Rodney Brown on NECN: 22 tech companies give back to community
As the cleantech industry breathes a sigh of relief after the financial meltdown of a year ago and awaits passage of clean energy legislation, industry leaders gathered to count their achievements and rally support around political leaders Wednesday at the New England Clean Energy Council’s Green Tie Gala.
The gala honored the 25-year effort of Steve Cowell, founder and president of Conservation Services Group., as well as the growth of cleantech companies like Boston’s EnerNOC Inc.. Devens’ American Superconductor Corp. and Watertown’s QD Vision Inc.
Rep. Edward Markey addressed the roughly 400 attendees at the John F. Kennedy Library and Museum, exhorting the efforts of his colleagues in Congress to pass legislation that will open up the energy market to new ventures and opportunities to export technology abroad.
After the ceremonies, NECEC President Nick d’Arbeloff unveiled a surprise musical performance — a set of rock classics fronted by RockPort Capital Partners’ Chuck McDermott and his “Cleantechs.”
The list of honorees includes:
Clean Energy Hall of Fame Inductee: Steve Cowell of Conservation Services Group
Corporate Citizen of the Year: Millipore Corp.
Employer of the Year: American Superconductor Corp.
Emerging Company of the Year: QD Vision Inc.
Breakout Company of the Year: EnerNOC Inc.
Council Leadership Awards: Co-Chairs of Workforce Development Committee: Kevin Doyle of Green Economy and Wanda Reindorf of Conservation Services Group
