In conjunction with this appointment, Neil Murdoch has resigned from the board.

“We are excited to welcome Brad and look forward to drawing on his extensive experience in the hydrogen and cleantech manufacturing sectors,” said Loop Energy Chairman, Kent Thexton. “Brad’s knowledge and expertise in scaling manufacturing operations is a key value-add at the board level as we grow Loop Energy and leverage its proprietary technology. We’d like to extend our gratitude to Neil Murdoch for his dedication and contribution to the board.”

“Brad’s experience scaling manufacturing operations and driving profit margins will be beneficial to Loop Energy and our team,” said Loop Energy President & CEO, Ben Nyland. “More focus on emerging and profitable market segments and an emphasis on sizing our operation to current market conditions will drive profitability and shareholder value appreciation sooner. Management and the Board are aligned on a vision and a direction forward.”
