Greg S. Mowry

Professor and Program Director, Renewable Energy and Alternatives Laboratory (REAL)
University of St. Thomas, St Paul, MN

Dr. Greg Mowry came to the University of St. Thomas in 2003 with 25 years of bleeding-edge engineering, research, and product development experience in nanotechnology based companies. Dr. Mowry has performed both fundamental and applied research as well as the engineering required to transform research concepts into successful high-volume products. More recently Dr. Mowry has focused his efforts on power, power electronics, and distributed hybrid alternative energy systems which find use in industry and in developing countries. His concern for the environment and the energy future of civilization has resulted in Dr. Mowry leading student project teams into countries such as Moldova, Tanzania, and Uganda where hybrid energy systems have been deployed -- all for the common good. This work has also resulted in multiple patents for startup companies in the hybrid power systems and portable biodiesel production space. He also serves as the director of both the Renewable Energy and Alternatives Laboratory (REAL) and the MSEE program - which has a power emphasis.
