Juhl Wind Appoints Chico & Nunes Attorney to the Company's Board


Posted: 7/9/2008

Mr. Hurley is currently Of Counsel with law firm of Chico & Nunes, P.C.  Prior to joining Chico & Nunes, Mr. Hurley served as the Special Director of the Office of Emergency Energy Assistance for the State of Illinois.  In this role, Mr. Hurley was responsible for the successful implementation of the "Keep Warm Illinois" and "Keep Cool Illinois" Campaigns that were driven by anticipated increases in the costs of natural gas and electricity. Mr. Hurley continues to be an active participant, as well as a guest speaker, at numerous conferences relating to issues impacting businesses that operate in regulated industries, including energy, telecommunications and investor-owned water systems.

As Chairman of the Illinois Commerce Commission and a member of the commission for many years, Ed oversaw the work of nearly three hundred employees and a budget of $128 million. During his tenure at the ICC, Mr. Hurley was a decision-maker involved in resolving the most complex issues impacting Illinois businesses governed by the ICC, including the deregulation of the electric energy markets, the process for procurement of electricity by electric utilities, and mergers and acquisitions of telecommunications, electric, and natural gas utilities.

"I am very pleased to be joining the team at Juhl Wind and I am looking forward in helping them lead the growth of Community Wind," Hurley said.  "In this era of electric deregulation and soaring energy prices, I have long advocated for ways to develop energy solutions at the community level and it is clear to me that Juhl Wind is leading the industry in this area." 

"I have worked with Ed Hurley for many years and have watched him lead efforts to promote renewable energy," added John Mitola, President of Juhl Wind.  "Ed brings to Juhl Wind relationships across the U.S. and the Midwest with leaders at electric utilities, ISO (Independent System Operators) and state legislatures that we can tap to help promote the growth of wind power in general and Community Wind in particular."
