He will succeed Dan Arvizu, who will retire from the alliance after more than a decade in the service, on Nov. 30, 2015, NREL said Tuesday.
“I look forward to working with Martin hand-in-hand as strategic partners to deliver the technologies and solutions that will help create American leadership in the transition to a global clean energy economy,†said David Danielson, the Energy Department‘s assistant secretary for energy efficiency and renewable energy.
The alliance manages NREL for the department.
