DENVER, CO — Stanley Consultants promoted longtime company member Lance Sulzen to lead its energy, power and environmental market. Member-owned Stanley Consultants is a worldwide provider of engineering, environmental and construction services.

Sulzen has 22 years of experience in the energy and environmental industry with a master’s degree in civil engineering, is a licensed Professional Engineer in various states and a certified Project Management Professional. He has spent the last 15 years with Stanley Consultants, and the last two and a half years as a project delivery lead providing leadership and oversight of project financial performance.

As Market Leader, Sulzen will be responsible for executing the company’s new business strategy. Shifting energy markets have dictated similar changes for the industry’s service providers, Sulzen said.

“We are experiencing a tremendous transformation in our energy landscape with a shift from centralized utilities to decentralized customers, moving more and more to decarbonized generation, and transitioning to a portfolio of distributed energy resources, reciprocating engines, microgrids and district energy solutions,” he said.

Stanley Consultants will continue its shift with the industry, refining its distributed energy resource business while working to strengthen its core power generation business. Sulzen said a key strategy will be to leverage the company’s other services to address client needs.

“With the accelerated changes we are experiencing in technology advancements and communities’ demands for smarter, cleaner and more resilient cities, we have a great opportunity to collaborate and grow with our power delivery, federal, water and transportation markets to offer full-service solutions to our customers,” Sulzen said.

Sulzen remains in the company’s Denver, Colorado, offices, reporting to Energy Business Leader Larry Head.

“Demand for clean, sustainable, resilient, reliable energy is repowering the utility and will be transforming the industry,” Head said. “Lance’s work will be critical to the success of Stanley Consultants.”
