Background

John’s career began at what was once the largest oil refinery in the Texaco system (Port Arthur, Texas), where he managed instrument and control modernization projects and a steam turbine generator installation.

John led a team of electricians in transitioning existing power plant circuits—including controls for power generation, boilers, switchyard circuit breakers, and protective relaying—to a centralized control center.

The job was wire by wire, in the darkest corners of electrical panels installed in the 1930s. Cases of flashlight batteries were used in the process. John’s success with the project promoted him to Power Plant Superintendent.

From Texaco, John advanced to plant management in 1991 for Falcon Seabord’s 80 MW NorCon facility (PA), then in 1993, Falcon’s Saranac Energy 240 MW facility (NY). In 1997, he became General Manager for Panda Energy’s Brandywine 230 MW plant (MD), and beginning in 2014, the Panda Liberty 840 MW plant (PA).

Screwdriver in one hand, multimeter in the other, 24/7 responsibility, zero lost time under his watch. These stand for John’s management career spanning more than 40 years.
