Our Team

Rich leads a team of professional analysts and problem solvers who are responsible for the strategies and solutions that help our customers become better consumers of energy.

The One Power Energy Services team was assembled early in Ohio’s deregulation history and has used customers’ data, along with consistent educational practices, proven modeling strategies, and frequent customer interaction to drive savings to our customers’ utility expenses. The vast knowledge and experience of Rich and his team members provide the perfect balance between data analytics and business methodology.

Prior to joining One Power, Rich held positions with Lykins Energy Advisors, Ford Motor Company, and owned his own service company. Rich holds a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from The Ohio State University College of Engineering where he specialized in fluid dynamics.

Problem-solving through creative and strategic customized solutions is Scott’s passion. A long-time business associate of OPES’s Head of Research and Development, Rich Bohon, Scott and Rich have built a uniquely qualified team where better analytics and best practices provide better-customized energy solutions.

The OPES team has the necessary independence and autonomy to tackle the energy market. As the team’s Director of Analytics, Scott uses business discovery and interpretation of data analytics to communicate meaningful data patterns to customers. He combines scientific technology with regulatory best practices to achieve optimal energy solutions.
