Introduced to harnessing solar energy in the 1980s, Corry helped construct a passive solar home noting and recalling its features, details, and integration with the natural environment.
Corry’s professional experience captures the attributes applied for renewable energy sites/projects:
Site selection—Corry has reduced national and regional site searches based on unique natural site requirements (i.e., storm susceptibility, wind directions/currents, weather conditions) with vision of timely and economically feasible construction.
Economic incentive solicitation, evaluation, and comparison.
Environmental permitting, impact assessment, mitigations.
Direct experience with US Department of Energy and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission projects—including environmental documents cited or awarded accolades by both agencies.
Key issues understanding and experience:
Siting coastally or at a brownfield site (e.g., closed landfill)?
Corry’s experience investigating/remediating Superfund sites and permitting/constructing coastal structures brings hands-on experience with the unique conditions of waste/contaminated sites and coastal/marine ecosystems—as well as the multitude of regulatory and resource agencies involved.
As an ornithological (bird) research assistant studying man-induced mortality from window kills, Corry has direct knowledge of migration tendencies and susceptibilities with a proven record of solutions.
NIMBYs seeing red versus green? Corry has calmed situations, negotiated, and resolved conflicts...including removing the live baby placed in front of the approaching dozer.
Years consulting in the aviation business brings understanding of flyways, reflective impacts, and wind currents.
A biologist by degree, Corry has a keen understanding of the biological processes, organisms, and survival needs capitalized upon to create biofuel.
