In that capacity, Michael works on fostering water innovation within the clean energy sector. Michael provides great insights into the interplay among water, energy and technology, so settle in during this cold snap and take a listen to Michael and his years of knowledge and experience in the water sector.
Also, Reese Tisdale returns for another Bluefield on Tap segment where Reese recounts top stories from 2017 and identifies trends and issues to keep an eye on in 2018.
