About Us - Executive Management

Khosro E. Mehrfar is the managing partner.  Dr. Mehrfar’s interest in alternative energy started early in mid 70’s when he was an undergraduate student in college of engineering at the university of Tehran, Iran.  

After graduation, he moved to U.S. to pursue higher education and earned his Master in 1982 and Ph.D. in 1986 in Civil engineering with emphasis on energy, environment and natural resources from the University of Akron, Ohio. While at the university, he led a team of engineers for the 3D design of NASA's underground wind tunnels at Lewis research center and later designed and implemented a GIS computer system for Public Utilities Commissions of Ohio - PUCO under Governor Richard Celeste and current co-chair of Homeland Security project at Century Foundation. 

The deliverable which was successfully installed at PUCO's headquarter in Columbus, Ohio was an advanced computer system to fully control and manage all electrical power grids of various utility companies across the state.


After completing graduate school, he moved to California and started working for Los Angeles office of Bechtel Corporation, an engineering and construction Management Company and became manager of automation on Bechtel’s Disney-MGM Studios Theme Parks projects in Paris. 

While at Bechtel, studying the complexity of the management of nuclear reactor power plants to create electricity in U.S. and in Europe convinced him that to produce safe, clean and enduring energy, solar power is one of the best alternatives. This conviction was further confirmed after he was assigned to a joint U.S. and Europe energy producing project with Italian power corporation Enel and EDF of France.

He started his own company; Mehr US Corp. and his interest in alternative, sustainable clean energy lead him to be part of a spin-off company dedicated to solar energy. Dr. Mehrfar is an associate &/or board member of the following Professional Societies
