Wind Energy Company Welcomes Barry Logue to Team
20 November 2008 — Somerville,
MA – Second Wind Inc., a leading provider of advanced software
and instrumentation for the wind energy industry, has hired Barry
Logue as Director of Sales. Logue’s main efforts will be focused
on developing the market for Second Wind’s new Triton™ sonic
wind profiler. Triton uses advanced sodar technology for wind resource
assessment, addressing some of the limitations of earlier sodar systems
and allowing wind developers to capture accurate wind data at up
to 200 meters in most locations, without being attended.
“Second Wind has long been acknowledged as a leader in wind
technology innovation,” Second Wind President Walter Sass said. “Triton
represents a quantum leap forward in wind assessment systems, providing
more bankable data and allowing rapid deployment and redeployment
of the techology at multiple wind sites. This newly created position
fits with our plans to communicate the value of Triton to a growing
and maturing wind industry.”
“As the industry embraces our technology, particularly the
Triton, we are attracting experienced executives and talent. Larry
Letteney recently joined our team as Vice President of Operations,
and I am confident that Barry’s background and skills will
help to drive sales and productivity to new heights,” said
Sass.
Logue brings to Second Wind nearly 20 years of experience in sales
and business development, including building and leading sales and
marketing teams for international high technology companies such
as TriStar Systems, Optikos Corporation, and Cambridge Research and
Instrumentation, Inc. With a background in aeronautical engineering,
Logue said the application of science to enable benefits to a larger
community resonates with his own values.
“I have worked for small engineering firms for my entire career,
and it was Second Wind’s corporate culture, the founders’ principles,
and the challenges of building a team that drew my attention,” Logue
said. “I’m excited to work among a team of leading experts
in the technology of wind assessment and it’s no exaggeration
that Triton is changing the paradigm for how these assessments will
be conducted. Based on the early success we’re seeing, I am
convinced that Triton will rapidly become a mainstream assessment
tool.”
