Before joining ESI, Ryan worked at Southern Company for 14 years. During the past 10 years, Ryan worked in the company’s engineering & construction services department managing contracts and the construction of capital projects for the company’s generation facilities. Ryan has extensive experience managing capital projects involving ash pond closures, dry ash landfill closures, CCR handling technology, package boilers, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) units, and SCR’s.
