Saverio began his career commissioning aircraft carriers for the U.S. Navy before moving into an engineering and consulting role within the energy industry. In the past 20+ years, he has developed and led commissioning and energy programs for a wide range of facilities, with a focus on healthcare, mission-critical facilities, and high-end pharmaceutical laboratories. He is a results-oriented energy program developer, recognized for published case studies and articles, piloting innovative energy reduction projects for city and state agencies, and the creation and delivery of several accredited education programs. He is particularly known and lauded for his TED Talk presentation style and engaging his audience, and is frequently invited to present to clients, partners, and industry stakeholders across varying platforms. Serving as a board member of the Building Commissioning Association and adjunct professor for the CUNY School of Professional Studies, he had cultivated expertise and experience developing and teaching efficient operations strategies and nationally accredited courses to local union schools, city agencies, and healthcare institutions. His work as a trusted adviser has allowed him to help define legislation in support of NYC’s energy and carbon emissions goals. It is this dedication to the energy industry that earned him an Urban Green Service Award from the NYC Chapter of the US Green Building Council and the Energy Engineer of the Year Award from the NYC Chapter of the Association of Energy Engineers.
