Joel S. Gilbert, P.E.
Retired from APOGEE Interactive, Inc.
Joel Gilbert P.E. was the Chief Software Architect and Co-Founder of Apogee Interactive Inc. where he directed the design and development of energy analysis applications for residential, commercial and industrial users.
His client roster included virtually every major investor-owned utility in the US and their key trade associations including the Edison Electric Institute (EEI), the Electric Power Institute (EPRI), the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association, and the American Public Power Association (APPA).
He was also retained by many of the largest energy users in the United States to assess their energy technology alternatives and energy master plans. Even though he retired, he believes most news media covering the energy industry is biased and misleading, so he tries each week to point out where the center of the road leads.
Joel does not believe the truth is complex. In fact, he believes it is pretty obvious once you really think about it. Hence the website name: Captain Obvious
