This week, we’re joined by Johnny Altomonte, CEO and founder of Verne Energy Solutions.
Johnny graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science from ADMU, where he is also finished his Master of Environmental Management. Before founding his company, he was an Environmental Policy Consultant at the Land Transportation Office, assessing policies and practices regarding the Philippines’ Clean Air Act.
At Verne, Johnny operates and implemented sustainable energy projects, from renewables to energy efficiency. Aside from his day job, he is also a consultant at the Philippine Senate and World Wildlife Fund, a Senior Research Fellow at the Access to Sustainable Energy Programme – Clean Energy Living Laboratories and a faculty member at ADMU’s Environmental Science Department and Ateneo School of Government.
Some fun facts about Johnny!
