William I. Brobeck - Founder

The Energy Credit Card began with the planning of the installation of a PV system for Mr. Brobeck's home. With monthly utility bills in the many 100's of dollars, a solar PV system became an obvious choice.

But as the costs and benefits became clearer, there were definite drawbacks that could not be ignored. The problem was simple, how to make a PV system provide financial help with ALL of his energy costs? The answer was a credit or debit card with credits from the sale of electricity back to the utility put on the card.

Henry Kim, Partner, Kaufman Enterprise Solutions

For almost two decades, Henry has been an entrepreneur, financial executive, and consultant with several start-ups, as well as, a host of small and medium-sized businesses, wherein he has repeatedly increased net profit margins. He has empowered the owners of these businesses to realize the initial dream associated with starting their businesses - freedom.

In his role as Rent-a-CFO/Controller for many companies, Henry managed the financial matters of the firms, which allowed the owners to do what they do best - sell their products and services, and grow their businesses. In every instance, he has helped increase the net profit of his clients by at least 25% immediately. He helped one of his clients double their net income in one and a half years, and quintuple their net income in just four years. He helped turn around another client from yearly net loss to an annual net income over a quarter of million dollars the next year. In this case, the business owner was able to use his new found wealth to return to his native country of Mexico and become a real estate investor.

Henry has broad experience in all aspects of accounting, auditing, and financial management in many industries, including construction, real estate, Internet, VAR, and IT consulting/training. He has helped companies "on the bubble" to regain their footing and prosper.
