Serial CEO Bill Nussey has created thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in value throughout his career. Learning that the cost of solar and wind-generated energy was now competitive with fossil fuels led to an epiphany.

In 2016, Bill founded the Freeing Energy Project to accelerate the shift to cleaner and cheaper energy. His book, which outlines his findings following more than a year of research and interviews with top energy experts, is slated for publication in 2018. He plans to turn his attention toward a small set of companies that will further the Freeing Energy mission. 

Bill received a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from North Carolina State University, worked as a venture capitalist with Greylock, and received his MBA from Harvard Business School.
