Envision Solar International announced today the appointment of Desmond Wheatley as President and COO. Wheatley has been a consultant of Envision since May of 2010. He will be assisting the CEO and Board of Directors in the development of company strategy and leading day to day activity in the company.
With two decades of management experience in technology systems integration, as well as energy management, communications and renewable energy, Wheatley has founded and operated four profitable start-up companies, engaged in M&A activities and evaluated acquisition opportunities. He has also raised commitments of $500 million in debt and equity.
Mr. Wheatley is a founding partner in the consulting practice Crichton Hill LLC and was the CEO of iAxis FZ LLC, an alternative energy and tech systems integrations company. He has been in several senior management positions at companies such as Kratos Defense and Security Solutions, fka Wireless Facilities, and spent the last five years as president of ENS, the largest independent security and energy management integrator in the United States.
Before starting ENS, Wheatley held senior management positions in the cellular and broadband wireless industries, lobbying in Washington DC on behalf of wireless providers. His teams have designed and deployed broadband networks across the United States.
Currently Mr. Wheatley sits on the boards of Admonsters in San Francisco, CA, and the Human Capital Group in Los Angeles, CA. He was formerly a board member of DNI in Dallas, TX.
“I am delighted to be evolving my existing relationship with Envision Solar,” stated Mr. Wheatley. “During my tenure as a consultant since the company went public, I have become increasingly excited by the opportunities ahead of us. Envision has a group of products and services which are unique in this high growth industry and the company is well positioned to take advantage of the six years of vision, product development and 10 Megawatts of installed base it has achieved under Bob’s leadership. There is a nexus occurring in the market place and the level of interest we are receiving for our Park Solar and integrated Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure gives me a strong indication that we should anticipate real traction in 2011. I look forward to assisting the team through our next period of significant growth.”
“Mr. Wheatley is a highly accomplished leader that will complement the existing management team very nicely,” commented Mr. Bob Noble, Founder and CEO of Envision Solar International. “We are delighted to welcome him to Envision’s management team and look forward to supporting him as he takes the business forward, capitalizing on his wealth of international, public company, deployment and integration experience. The appointment marks a new and exciting era for Envision Solar as we look to grow the Company to the next level,” concluded Mr. Noble.
