Sean Park
Entrepreneur and CEO in Qatar
Sean Park is an entrepreneur and technology founder focused on building new ways to generate, integrate and operate energy. As co-founder & CEO of EnergyX, he leads the company’s long-term technology vision and global expansion.
In 2019, Sean co-founded EnergyX around the belief that energy systems could generate more, waste less and operate more intelligently. The company began with buildings because they combine enormous electricity demand with vast areas of underused physical surface. That first market has since become the foundation for a broader ambition: to build a fundamentally more efficient way to generate and integrate power.
EnergyX today is built around two proprietary technology engines. EnergyX Foundry develops the physical technologies for next-generation power generation, centered on proprietary single-junction perovskite photovoltaics that can expand where and how solar generation exists. EnergyX Intelligence combines artificial intelligence, deterministic physics, geospatial intelligence, geometry, material behavior and operating data to design and operate physical energy systems.
Together, the two technologies create a reinforcing physical and computational system. Foundry changes how power is generated. Intelligence changes how energy systems are designed and operated. Every deployment creates models and operating data that improve subsequent design, forecasting and control.
Under Sean’s leadership, EnergyX has built a commercial footprint across more than 20,000 buildings, deploying proprietary building-integrated energy technologies and intelligence capabilities in the real world. The company has developed 300+ intellectual property assets and delivered EnergyX DY-Building — the world’s first Zero Energy Building Plus certified building — which generates more energy than it consumes and has reached 129.9% energy self-sufficiency.
EnergyX is now expanding internationally across the United States, Korea and MENA, while developing Qatar as a strategic base for industrialization and global scale. Buildings remain the company’s first market, but not the boundary of its technologies. Sean’s longer-term objective is to make more of the physical world capable of generating power and to make the energy systems around it increasingly intelligent.
Prior to EnergyX, Sean served as a Board Director at Tapas, which was acquired for $510 million. His earlier career spanned hedge-fund investing at Perry Capital and AXA Investment Managers, including co-managing approximately $2 billion in global equity and equity-derivatives portfolios. He began building companies during his university years as a co-founder of Bernice & Co.
