Mr. Provence has nearly 20 years of expertise, has designed and
installed over 200kW of battery based PV systems, and has designed,
installed or consulted on over 10MW of grid interactive PV systems.
He provides design consulting and inspection services to PV
installation professionals, holds three NABCEP certifications as a
Certified PV Installation Professional, Certified PV Technical
Sales Professional and Certified Solar Thermal Installer, is a
Licensed Master Electrician, and has a Marketing and Management
degree from Bainbridge State College. He has become one of the most
respected and highly certified solar PV Installers and Trainers in
the US, and is one of a small number of people in the US who holds
three certificates from NABCEP. He was also awarded Master
Certified PV Trainer status from the Interstate Renewable Energy
Council (IREC), making him the first PV Trainer in the US to
achieve all four certifications.
“I’m pleased to welcome Kelly to the team as we continue
advancing New Energy’s SolarWindow™ technology toward
commercialization,” stated Mr. John A. Conklin, President and CEO
of New Energy Technologies, Inc. “Kelly has an intimate knowledge
of electrical systems design and installation. His expertise in
solar PV will be invaluable to our efforts in developing
commercially viable products and systems utilizing our see-through
SolarWindow™ coatings in commercial glass products and integrating
them with building infrastructures to provide a source of renewable
electricity generation.”
Mr. Provence founded a PV focused renewable energy design and
installation company, Solairgen, the first privately held solar PV
training company in the eastern US. Recognizing the need for the
highest standards of integrity in the growing solar industry, he
began training for and obtaining national certification in PV
installation from the NABCEP, a national program that awards
professional certification to photovoltaic installers in the
U.S.
His passion as an environmentalist led him to involvement in the
structuring of the Georgia Solar Energy Association (GSEA),
volunteering as a director for three years, advocating for solar
energy and lobbying state and federal politicians on environmental
issues.
Realizing a need for competent and professional solar PV
training, particularly in his home state of Georgia, he
transitioned Solairgen into a solar training company and has
developed nine PV courses, from entry level PV design, to technical
sales, to advanced design and installation. He also obtained
accreditation from the Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC)
for program certification and as a Master Certified PV Trainer.
Currently, Mr. Provence is the CEO of Solairgen. He provides
design consulting and inspection services to PV installation
professionals. He also continues to develop accredited solar PV
courses and trains students from across the world with the goal to
strengthen the solar industry by providing a full spectrum of
training programs for solar design, installation and sales.
NABCEP is the most respected, well-established, and widely
recognized certification organization for North American solar
professionals. NABCEP was founded with the mission to support and
work with the renewable energy and energy efficiency industries,
professionals and stakeholders to develop and implement quality
credentialing programs for practitioners. NABCEP’s certification
programs are administered to the highest standards for testing and
certification. The NABCEP PV Installation Professional and Solar
Heating Installer Certifications have been accredited to the
ISO/IEC 17024 standard by ANSI.
Currently under development for eventual commercial deployment
in the estimated 85 million commercial buildings and homes in
America, SolarWindow™ is the world’s first-of-its-kind technology
capable of generating electricity on see-through glass windows and
flexible plastics.
About New Energy Technologies,
Inc.
New Energy Technologies, Inc., together with its wholly owned
subsidiaries, is a developer of next generation alternative and
renewable energy technologies. Among the Company’s technologies
under development are:
- MotionPower™ roadway systems for
generating electricity by capturing the kinetic energy produced by
moving vehicles – a patent-pending technology, the subject of 59 US
and International patent applications. An estimated 250 million
registered vehicles drive more than six billion miles on America’s
roadways, every day; and
- SolarWindow™ technologies, which
generates electricity on see-through glass and flexible plastics
with colored tints popular to skyscraper glass. Unlike conventional
systems, SolarWindow™ can be applied to all four sides of tall
towers, generating electricity using natural and artificial light
conditions and even shaded areas. SolarWindow™ uses organic
materials, which are dissolved into liquid, ideal for low-cost
high-output manufacturing. New Energy’s SolarWindow™ is the subject
of 42 patent applications.
Through established relationships with universities, research
institutions, and commercial partners, we strive to identify
technologies and business opportunities on the leading edge of
renewable energy innovation. Unique to our business model is the
use of established research infrastructure owned by the various
institutions we deal with, saving us significant capital which
would otherwise be required for such costs as land and building
acquisition, equipment and capital equipment purchases, and other
start-up expenses. As a result, we are able to benefit from leading
edge research while employing significantly less capital than
conventional organizations.
