In this role, White reports to company President and CEO Dennis Reid and is responsible for global sales of H2scan’s hydrogen monitoring products within the transformer industry.

White joins H2scan from Qualitrol, a company focused on condition-based monitoring for utility assets, where he served as a senior sales manager in the Midwest U.S. region. Previously he worked as an application engineer and a sales manager at General Electric. White began his career as a substation design engineer at the electric utility company Ameren.

“Hydrogen monitors provide high value and low maintenance, which translates to increased reliability and decreased costs for utilities, particularly important during this time when companies must cut back on in-person monitoring of their transformers,” said White. “H2scan provides a world-class product no other company can compete with and has the talent to grow tremendously in the coming years. I look forward to playing a role in this growth.”
