Tom Weirich, head of marketing and stakeholder relations for EDP Renewables North America joins the show to talk about his book, We Took the Risk. The book details stories of early leaders in the renewable energy industry. It’s a great resource for anyone looking to get involved in the industry, or, if you already work in renewables, it’s a great way to get re-energized and re-inspired. In this conversation, Tom talks about his time working for the American Council on Renewable Energy, also known as ACORE. He discusses the many lessons he learned from his mentor Bill Holmberg. He also dives into the book writing process and talks about working with The Creator Institute at Georgetown University. I hope you enjoy the show!
