TerraGo is pleased to introduce the newest member of our Smart Cities & Utilities team, Ben Chadbourne! Ben joined TerraGo as a Smart Cities & Utilities Sales Engineer.

Ben has a strong background in streetlights, smart city infrastructure, and project management, and  has direct experience managing SLV and consulting clients on energy savings best practices.  Ben has worked on all aspects of a streetlight program including design, implementation, management, system integration, driving O&M efficiencies, material requisitioning, analyzing/reporting, and much more.
