Schneider Electric, a leader in the digital transformation of energy management and industrial automation, recently announced that Charlie Hadlow will lead EnergySage – one of the largest renewable energy marketplaces in the U.S. – as the company completes its transition from “start-up” to “scale-up.” Hadlow intends to continue delivering on the company’s consumer-focused vision and accelerate growth into new verticals and go-to-market strategies, including international expansion.
“I am thrilled to welcome Charlie as the leader of EnergySage, one of the leading consumer brands in the energy landscape,” said Nadege Petit, Chief Innovation Officer at Schneider Electric. “We are collectively seeking to deliver a more sustainable world through electrification, digitization, and decarbonization, and Charlie is well-positioned to drive EnergySage’s role in this mission.”
Most recently, as Vice President of Marketplace Growth for EnergySage, Hadlow oversaw all consumer sales and advisory services, business development, manufacturer partnerships, and customer success. Additionally, throughout his four years at the company, Hadlow has managed other key functions, including marketing and revenue operations, giving him a unique perspective on the growth potential of EnergySage.
Prior to joining EnergySage, Hadlow held senior executive roles focused on digital and go-to-market strategies, and has supported private equity firms as a strategic advisor. Hadlow earned a B.A. in Public Policy from Duke University and his MBA from Georgetown, graduating with distinction from both universities.
While at EnergySage, Hadlow has partnered closely with CEO and Founder Vikram Aggarwal, who is taking time after 14 years at EnergySage to pursue other opportunities. “We are grateful for the foundation that Vikram built, and are excited for the future of EnergySage under Charlie and the executive team’s leadership’, said Petit.
“I couldn’t be prouder to see Charlie step into this role,” said Aggarwal. “He’s one of our most passionate and capable leaders and someone who prioritizes both the consumer and our critical industry partners. He will be a driving force in taking the company to the next level.”
