5B
In 2013, 5B arose from Chris’ passion to accelerate the global transition to clean energy. Chris' vision has grown 5B from a small start-up to a global organisation, hosting award-winning technology. As Chief Executive Officer, Chris has a strong focus on developing cutting-edge technology that reduces the cost of renewable energy. Under his leadership, our team has reinvented the solar supply chain to simplify how projects are delivered, with fewer materials, lightning-fast deployment, and streamlined logistics.
After graduating with 1st class honors in Renewable Energy Engineering at UNSW, Chris and 5B co-founder Eden Tehan designed and installed a micro-hydropower system for the remote Vanuatu village, Imaki. Chris then founded ‘Solar Fields’, where he worked with government, communities and the private sector on various projects from early-stage development through to delivery. His prior experience at Infigen Energy as Development Manager prepared him to inspire and lead our team at 5B.
Chris is an avid explorer of the natural world. He is a tech diver, a rock climber, and enjoys nothing more than a good adventure with great friends.
