Former White House Climate Change Chairman Joins Cyclone Power Technologies Team
Cyclone Power Technologies, announced today that it has signed an advisory agreement with former Chairman of the White House Climate Change Task Force, Roger Ballentine, and his company Green Strategies Inc., to assist Cyclone’s strategic long-term growth.
Mr. Ballentine is CEO and Founder of Green Strategies, where for over a decade he has advised Fortune 100 companies such as CitiGroup, Wal-Mart, Coca-Cola and General Electric on matters related to energy and environmental sustainability. Previously, he served under President Bill Clinton as Chairman of the White House Climate Change Task Force and as Deputy Assistant to the President for Environmental Initiatives. He currently serves on the Advisory Board of the American Council for Renewable Energy (where he was a founding Board member), the Advisory Council of the Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and has been a Senior Fellow at the Progressive Policy Institute in Washington D.C., and a lecturer on law at the Harvard Law School.
“I understand the hurdles companies face in bringing new energy technologies to market, especially technology as truly ground breaking as the Cyclone engine,” Mr. Ballentine stated. “Seeing the advancements the Cyclone team has made to date with limited resources is inspiring, but not surprising. The Cyclone technology, I believe, is well positioned to meet growing market demand for alternative fuel and high efficiency engine solutions. I will work to get Cyclone’s technology in front of the people who need to see it.”
“We are extremely pleased to have Roger invest his time in Cyclone. He brings an enormous breadth of experience and strong contacts in many areas that are key to our success,” stated Christopher Nelson, President of Cyclone. “We are honored to be working with him, and truly believe that he can help push our company and technological development to the next level.”
Per his agreement, Mr. Ballentine will assist Cyclone in pursuing business opportunities, including sales and partnerships with major industrial players, governmental organizations, and defense contractors. He will also monitor relevant policy and industry activities in Washington D.C. for the company, and help Cyclone develop strategic, long-range corporate planning initiatives.
