One Energy is a Utility 2.0 company. It sits between the consumer and the utility company, and because it's more agile than a utility, it can make this happen. Fast.


One Energy went from shovels in the ground to flipping the proverbial switch, in just eight months. One Energy CEO Jereme Kent joins Jim Park to talk about the project, its potential and why he chose to build this facility in Findlay Ohio.
