Steve understands how to assemble data, information, action and results that are meaningful to the constituents of each Energy Management Team. He helped shape the Net Zero press release content for the City of Albuquerque in late 2018. He anticipates Executive level requirements and communication with ease. He has run large ‘operations’ organizations in the semiconductor industry with direct profit and loss responsibility in unforgiving business environments. He had direct responsibility for over $500M in highly complex equipment installations globally with extensive vendor management requirements. He stood up New Mexico’s first commercial and industrial demand response program establishing 32 MW of virtual peaking power plant capacity in 2008. As his career in energy progressed, Steve realized early that our customers don’t have a data problem, they often have an information problem that touches electricity, gas and water waste.
Aislin is a key player for the PNM Peak Saver Program and directly project managed the iOT Telemetry deployment at over 80 NM locations. He directly managed B&D Industries team members in their subcontract to Generac to ensure safety, timeliness, quality, and budget performance. Additionally, he developed the Scope of Work (SOW) for the remote BAS scripting (Trane, iCSI, ACS) for over 40 PNM Peak Saver locations for automated demand response. He served as the lead in addressing and PNM & Generac telemetry design issue that included close coordination with a licensed electrical engineering firm. He managed all projects from ‘zero to one’ ahead of schedule and well under budget. He is fluent with Building Automation Systems and expert in the quantitative analysis of vast interval data recording (IDR) data sets. He also led Generac’s first Distributed Energy Management Software (DERMS) deployment with PNM in New Mexico. Aislin has been with Mountain Vector Energy since 2018.
