Willdan Energy Solutions recently moved to a new location at 101 East Huntington Drive.
According to reports Willdan Energy Solutions has experienced over 300 percent growth in employees since September 2010, after first having been located in the Monrovia area since 2007.
Tony J. Coonce(director of operations at Willdan Energy Solutions) has spent the past year tripling his work force.
The company works with cities and businesses to save on energy consumption at no cost to them.
According to a story in the Pasadena Star News:
Willdan Energy Solutions manages several energy efficiency programs for Southern California Edison, all aimed at reducing the number of kilowatts used by business customers. Edison and other utilities foot the bill through the California Public Utilities Commission.
Coonce was hired away from Southern California Edison and grew his staff to 29 in order keep up with increased productivity.
“At some point I had hired so many people that I had to give up my office for work space, ” Coonce recalled. “I was working from home and cafes, just sort of like a ghost – in and out.”
Coonce said the company has a number of projects in the works for 2011 and he plans to hire more people early next year.
The company handles programs in cities all over Southern California. Willdan also does a lot of work with small businesses, Coonce added.
“Utilities contract with us to identify energy savings opportunities in businesses,” he noted. “We specialize in hotels and hospitals. A new sector that we are starting to work with is data-storage centers.”
The programs are funded by fees collected by utilities in the Public Purpose Programs charge. Utility companies receive government incentives for reducing their overall energy footprint.
“The projects all relate to a reduction in emissions and the need to avoid the construction of power plants as well as reducing the carbon footprint of businesses,” said James Mendoza, Willdan’s account manager.
The company was started in 2004 by Ashish Goel and Jay Bhalla as Intergy Corp. in Northern California. A year after Intergy opened its Southland operations in Monrovia, it was acquired by Willdan Group Inc. and now is a division of the Willdan Group, functioning as Willdan Energy Solutions.
Willdan averages 40 million kilowatts of savings annually for its customers. This equals 40.8 million pounds of carbon emissions reduced, or on average 20,400 tons of carbon emissions reduced each year, Mendoza added.
The company works closely with the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments, comprised of 29 valley cities and administers the Energy Wise Partnership, an agreement between the COG and Edison to reduce the cities’ energy consumption.
Early this month, a number of Willdan projects with San Gabriel cities were awarded by Edison, noted Rosie Kang, a Willdan program manager. In 2010, Willdan projects with COG cities totaled more than 870,000 kilowatt-hours in energy savings.
Projects with the cities of South Pasadena, West Covina, Pomona and San Gabriel all were honored for their efforts to reduce energy consumption.
Kang said the company is already gearing up for 2011.
“We are meeting with all 29 cities to reintroduce the partnership and see what other opportunities are available,” she said.

Anyone else out there using the UStream iPhone app?
I am using version 2.0 of the app.
I have been using it for a couple years and have found it to work pretty well. One of the issues I have is that for some reason even if I have a good wifi connection and record a video to the phone locally it doesn’t seem to want to upload. It sits in my videos uploading, or waiting.
The other issue is that it doesn’t allow me to record in portrait mode for some reason, I have searched for the orientation setting and there doesn’t appear to be any.
As a tip, you get a much better quality video if you record to the local phone and then upload. If you are experiencing troubles like me with uploading the videos, then you can always use the built in camera and record to the phone and then upload the video to YouTube, which works flawlessly most of the time.
Anyone see anything that you can change?

Apparently there is research showing a connection between index finger length and the risk of prostate cancer. This is interesting. The finger length is determined at birth.
If you are like me you heed the warnings to keep updated with the latest versions of WordPress. Yesterday, WordPress released an update to the popular blogging platform.
3.0.4 was released and is highly recommended that you install. It is rated as a critical update.
Also there’s an update to Exploit scanner.
3.0.4 Important Security Update
Posted December 29, 2010 by Matt Mullenweg. Filed under Releases,Security.
Version 3.0.4 of WordPress, available immediately through the update page in your dashboard or for download here, is a very important update to apply to your sites as soon as possible because it fixes a core security bug in our HTML sanitation library, called KSES. I would rate this release as “critical.”
I realize an update during the holidays is no fun, but this one is worth putting down the eggnog for. In the spirit of the holidays, consider helping your friends as well.
If you are a security researcher, we’d appreciate you taking a look over this changeset as well to review our update. We’ve given it a lot of thought and review but since this is so core we want as many brains on it as possible. Thanks to Mauro Gentile and Jon Cave (duck_) who discovered and alerted us to these XSS vulnerabilities first.

One of the questions we have… is will there be a stealth flyover on Jan 1, 2011?
So far as we can tell, yes. But we are still looking for confirmation.
Security will be extra tight within one block of the entire parade route, due to increased alert due to possible terrorist attacks. All vehicles within a one block distance of the Colorado – Sierra Madre parade route will be inspected.
Expect increased security around all Parade related events.
