Dunsky Welcomes Senior Clean Energy and Climate Expert Sam Ross

Dunsky is thrilled to welcome Sam Ross to our team. Based in Rhode Island, Sam is a respected leader in the Northeastern clean energy sector and brings over a decade of experience developing and implementing strategic initiatives at the nexus of clean energy, economics and data analysis.

“As a hybrid firm – part engineering, part management consulting, all clean energy and climate – Sam is a natural fit for our team,” said Philippe Dunsky, President of Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors. “He is as comfortable facilitating conversations with utility sector leaders as he is analyzing complex modelling results. His deep understanding of economics, familiarity with DERs and cutting-edge grid management approaches, and first-hand experience helping organizations optimize their internal infrastructure to better support GHG reduction targets make him a valuable resource for our clients in the U.S. and Canada.”
