Mr. Echols brings
more than 33 years experience
of progressive responsibility
in the energy field, including
founding, owning, and operating
a successful energy business prior
to AHP. This experience includes
management, profit and loss responsibility,
planning, design, permitting,
installation and operations. Plant
types included natural gas processing,
cogeneration systems, and biomass
energy systems using agricultural
biomass, biosolids, anaerobic
digesters and landfill gas to
power internal combustion engines,
gas turbines, and boilers for
steam production. He has been
responsible for the development,
design, construction, operation
and maintenance of over 110 megawatts
of renewable energy projects that
have ranged in size from an 80-kilowatt
electric generator up to a 36-megawatt
power plant. Richard has also
been fully responsible for design
and implementation of safety and
training programs and QA/QC programs
for equipment manufacturing, construction
and plant operations. |
