Bill Zebuhr
"William Zebuhr has a Master's Degree in mechanical engineering from Cornell University. He has experience in the large corporation world, the defense industry, and extensive experience as an inventor and entrepreneur in the energy and environmental fields. He has about thirty patents and a lot of experience with investors. He is founder and CEO of Ovation Products Corporation (see www.ovationproducts.com). The company has developed a small vapor compression distiller which has broad application in cleaning water for domestic and industrial use worldwide. This is a disruptive technology that will have a major impact in the multi billion dollar water industry.
"Bill was founder and CEO of two other companies and cofounder of one. One of these was a major developer and manufacturer of solar heating systems and another is a major player in the heat recovery industry. These products have enabled the savings of hundreds of millions of gallons of oil.
"Bill has had a long time interest in the fringes of science and technology and has helped raise seed capital for several inventors in these areas. It was this interest that led to meeting Gene Mallove and the association that resulted in becoming Chairman of the New Energy Foundation. Bill's broad practical experience, his interest in the connections between technology and metaphysics and the potential impacts on the environment will be helpful in helping to set the direction of NEM in the future."[1]
