"We're getting the band back together. I hired Todd at EnerNOC as a front-line salesperson in 2007, a year in which I hired 60 front-line salespeople,” said Matt Plante, President of Voltus. “Todd was exceptional from day one and was promoted to every role in the sales organization until he was the global sales leader. He gets results, he hires well, he leads by example, and he’s an energy markets expert who earns the trust customers put in him. In short, he’s everything Voltus looks for in a leader. Together, Todd, Gregg, and I have brought more than 10,000 MWs of new demand response to market and we're fired up to do it again."

"Voltus leads demand response for three reasons: they're the world's leading experts in demand response, they have a no-cost, no-risk, single page commercial agreement that makes it simple for customers to sign up, and their technology is best-in-class, unlocking multiple revenue streams for the customer that deliver more than twice the value of the competition," said Todd. "I'm excited to bring this platform to market with a fully scaled sales team equipped with the differentiated advantage of offering more demand response programs to commercial and industrial customers than any competitor in the market."
