Clifford Griffin joins the company as Senior Vice President,
Corporate Controller and Chief Accounting Officer. Mr. Griffin
comes to Energy Focus from Babcock & Wilcox, a $700M+ global
leader in energy and environmental technologies and services for

reporting. Prior to Babcock & Wilcox, Cliff spent eight years
at Advanced Lighting Technologies, a $200M producer of lighting
products, components, and systems. Steve Socolof, Chairman and
Interim CEO, commented, “Energy Focus is excited to have a
financial leader as senior and as experienced as Cliff Griffin join
our executive team. Cliff’s financial background at large, publicly
traded companies will serve Energy Focus extremely well as we
embark on our established growth strategy to lead the market with
new, cutting edge and differentiated products.”
Steve McGuire joins as Director of Business Development. Steve
will lead OEM relationship development, primarily for our EnFocus™
Power Line Control (PLC) technology and help to further develop our
sales agency and distribution channels. Mr. McGuire brings 25 years
of experience in the lighting industry, primarily with Philips
Lighting, and has built sales and distribution for several other
companies. Greg Galluccio, Senior Vice President of Product and
Engineering commented, “I am happy to have such a seasoned
commercial leader join my team. Steve McGuire will help us bring
our EnFocus™ PLC technology to our direct customers, our channels,
and our OEM partners.” Steve McGuire added, “I’m excited about
working with such a professional team of coworkers to introduce
Energy Focus to the OEM markets with EnFocus™ lighting controls and
to help drive Energy Focus products in markets that our competitors
cannot address.”
Nicholas Peragine will be joining as Director of Regional Sales.
Nick brings over 10 years of relevant experience building and
leading sales teams in the commercial lighting industry. Mr.
Peragine commented, “I am so pleased to be joining the sales team
and playing a significant role in our next phase of development and
success, ultimately building Energy Focus into a major player in
the lighting industry. We are still in the early days of conversion
for commercial buildings to adopt energy-saving LED lighting
solutions, such as our new line of lighting products including the
innovative EnFocus™ power line control system.“
Steve Socolof, Chairman and interim CEO, concluded, “I am very
happy about having Cliff Griffin join our senior leadership team
