Electro Power Systems opens in San Francisco: Marco Terruzzin appointed MD for North and Latin America

Marco Terruzzin is the new Managing Director for North and Latin America of Electro Power Systems, the forerunner of smart oxygen and hydrogen-based integrated systems for clean energy storage, recently listed on the French regulated market. In addition to the organization and management of the new American branch in San Francisco, Terruzzin will also look after the strategic management aspect with responsibility for developing the business and the sales network.

Marco Terruzzin, a 42 year-old graduate in mechanical engineering from Padua, with a Doctorate in Energy Economics and an MBA from the University of Virginia, has remarkable experience in the energy sector and an extensive knowledge of the complex dynamics of the American and Asian markets. Fifteen years of experience gained with major management consulting and energy players: after a beginning in management consulting with Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, he joined Edison, one of the largest electric utilities, as marketing manager. He then moved to Zurich and London at Poyry, international consulting company, to serve as manager for global clients across the energy sector and in 2006 was called on by GE as renewable energy expert for the Wind Energy division in the USA. From 2007 to 2014 he has been working between New York and Shanghai as Managing Director at Evolution Markets, world's largest environmental brokerage firm. 

Marco Terruzzin, Managing Director for North and Latin America of Electro Power Systems, stated:

"North America is a transformational market for the EPS scaling up thanks to its supportive regulatory environment for grid-support applications and massive renewable energy growth, which requires innovative energy storage solutions. This is a unique opportunity to position HyESS, the Hybrid Energy Storage System developed by EPS, into the most vibrant and dynamic market worldwide for behind and in-front of meter applications. With a current price already below 250$/kWh, EPS owns today the most cost effective, clean and flexible technology capable to fulfil the largest range of services that any modern grids need."

 Luca Dal Fabbro, Chairman of Electro Power Systems, commented:

"It is a pleasure to have Marco Terruzzin" -- comments Luca Dal Fabbro, Chairman of Electro Power Systems -- "as part of our top management team led by our CEO Carlalberto Guglielminotti. His experience, international background and skills in the energy and cleantech sector are a fundamental asset to develop a complex market as the USA."
