David Korn

David Korn, P.E., is Vice President and Co-Founder of Ridgeline Energy Analytics. He is a Senior Engineer with over 30 years of experience, whose work ranges from evaluating utility efficiency programs, to auditing and metering electricity usage in buildings and building systems, to helping investors establish savings levels of their projects. Previously he was Vice President of measurement and engineering at The Cadmus Group where he supervised 90 engineers and technicians (2011-2018). He oversaw an engineering laboratory that tested the energy efficiency of products and systems, including long term metering of lighting systems. David led teams that developed metering technologies for commercial and residential load analysis. He also led solar teams that performed quality control inspections on commercial and residential solar PV installations. He helped set voluntary energy efficiency standards for equipment, including water coolers, air conditioners, heat pumps, roof-top units, dehumidifiers, computers, and battery charging systems. His areas of expertise include: 

·  Establishing and applying measurement methods for a range of utility and private sector funded projects;

·  Supporting evaluations of non-wire alternatives for grid-constrained areas;

·  Analyzing capital recovery of efficiency equipment investments;

·  Performing energy audits of residential, multi-family and commercial buildings;

·  Conducting stock assessments in support of potential studies of efficiency potential; and

·  Evaluating conservation voltage reduction in grid systems.

He is a member of EVO’s International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) Technical Committee and the Subcommittee on Statistics and Uncertainty. He is a Professional Engineer and a Certified Energy Manager by the Association of Energy Engineers. David holds a B.S. in mechanical engineering from Cornell University.
