Now in its fifth year, the annual Environment+Energy Leader 100 recognizes those environment and energy “doers” who break trail in creating new solutions, programs, platforms, best practices and products to help their companies – or other companies – achieve greater success in commercial and industrial environment and energy management.

“The Honorees on the annual list show groundbreaking work and dedication to the field of sustainability and energy management,” says Paul Nastu, President of Environment+Energy Leader. “We’re thrilled to recognize this year’s Honorees and congratulate all who made the list.”

“I’ve had the distinct privilege of working closely with Nicole since she started as a project engineer at Ameresco in 2004,” said George Sakellaris, President and CEO of Ameresco. “As soon as she began her role with our company, it was clear that her passion, dedication, and expertise in the field would lead her to great success. It has been a pleasure and an honor to see her grow over the years and I am proud of the leader she has become. When I founded Ameresco in 2000, I dreamed the company would be seen as a leader in innovative clean energy solutions, and now that it has come to fruition, I realize it would not have been possible without Nicole’s guidance and management. I am eager to see all that she accomplishes in the coming years because her knowledge and passion is palpable and inspires others to think innovatively.”
