Environ Energy, New York, announced that Mark Mininberg, founder and CEO, has transitioned to the role of co-chairman. Christopher Sternberg, who joined Environ as president in November 2023, has been promoted to CEO.
Sternberg brings more than 25 years of leadership experience in energy trading and risk management, commodity data analytics, and new product development, with roles at Shell Energy, AutoGrid, Genscape and S&P Global. He will continue to focus on talent development, mergers, acquisitions and rapid growth in Environ’s energy procurement, engineering, decarbonization and sustainability solutions.
“We’ll continue to build a company our clients, partners and staff can be proud of,” Sternberg said. “Our mission is clear – to provide the best energy, engineering and sustainability solutions to meet the challenges of a changing world. I’m excited and humbled to have the opportunity to deliver the next phase of growth of Mark’s vision for Environ. We are at the beginning of the energy transition, and we are ready to serve our clients to make smart energy and sustainability choices that save money and boost efficiency.”
Mininberg founded Hospital Energy (now Environ) in 1995 to provide affordable, clean energy and energy-efficiency solutions for healthcare institutions. The company evolved into Environ in 2021 and has grown fivefold with six acquisitions in three years under Mininberg’s leadership, with the support of private-equity firm 424 Capital.
