Since 2015, Halfpenny has grown the DLC, a former project of the Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships, into an independent, international non-profit that drives energy efficient and connected lighting solutions across North America. As executive director and CEO, she has helped drive the DLC's success through strategic planning, stakeholder engagement and collaboration, and continuous improvement of business systems.
"I'm honored to be recognized by E+E and inspired by the work of the other honorees to transform our buildings and our energy systems and improve our global environment," Halfpenny said in the DLC's original release.
The E+E Leader 100 is now in its fifth year and recognizes those environment and energy "doers" who break trail in creating new solutions, programs, platforms, best practices and products to help their companies – or other companies – achieve greater success in commercial and industrial environment and energy management.
