In this Convo of Flanigan’s Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Mark Swanson, newly appointed as the CEO of Aeromine Technologies, the innovative rooftop wind energy system that converts a building’s wind flow into renewable energy. Swanson brings 30 years of leadership experience to Aeromine. For the last 12 years, he has held leadership positions in the rooftop solar industry, with a proven track record in manufacturing, scaling operations, and driving customer-focused growth.

Prior to joining Aeromine, Swanson held a distinguished career in solar and distributed energy, serving as COO at Complete Solaria. He also spent time as COO and General Manager of EPC at Borrego Solar Systems, and served as Vice President at SunPower. In his new role as CEO at Aeromine, Mark will oversee Aeromine’s transition from low volume manufacturing and pilot projects to full-scale manufacturing and widespread commercial use. He shares that Aeromine is currently working with some of the world’s largest and most ambitious enterprises to plan their first commercial Aeromine installation.

He and Ted discuss Aeromine’s breakthrough technology, which is harvesting the flow of wind over a building. The scalable renewable energy solution harnesses the power of wind in an efficient system, with motionless, vibration-less, and noise-less units. The solution is long-lasting, and requires much less rooftop space than other options to generate distributed energy. Ideal for large, flat rooftop buildings – including warehouses, big box retailers, data centers, office, and apartment buildings – Aeromine is leveraging existing financial structures, installation resources and incentives established by the solar industry.
