Summary
Christopher Galantino is an Associate Principal with eight years of hands-on experience accelerating decarbonization for utilities and energy-sector clients through rigorous energy and financial simulation, program development, and regulatory strategy. He blends technical depth in capacity planning, electrification, non-wires/non-pipes alternatives, and benefit-cost analysis with practical deal-side due diligence to help organizations balance growth, compliance, and stakeholder impact. A Cornell-trained environmental and systems engineer, his master’s work built a demand/supply simulation for a geothermal-plus-heat-pump district heating system tied to campus carbon neutrality goals—evidence of his ability to translate models into actionable decarbonization pathways. Outside consulting, he has roots in applied sustainability from founding a student pro bono consulting group to on-the-ground water-treatment design in Honduras, and he pursues nature-based recreation that keeps his perspective grounded in real-world systems.
