Most power consultants understand finance. Most engineers understand equipment. Very few understand both, and fewer still have actually deployed hundreds of megawatts under real project conditions. Fussell spent 25 years building that complete picture — from wellhead to turbine pad to signed commercial contract.
From M1A1 tanks to turbine pads to $900M power contracts — a career defined by showing up where the technical and commercial meet, and delivering results in both.
Leads development and commercialization of modular gas turbine generation solutions for data centers and high-demand power applications. Manages the full project lifecycle from turbine sourcing and packaging through commissioning and long-term operations support.
Joined as VP of Business Development and earned a promotion to President nine months later. Ran all commercial, operational, and personnel functions for a fast-growth mobile power generation company serving industrial and energy customers.

Led U.S. business development for Jereh's Mobile Power division, selling direct-drive turbine frac fleets and electric power solutions to major oilfield services companies and energy operators across North America.
Jereh subsidiary — Texas produced water and drilling waste disposal, three Class 3 injection well facilities.
Co-founded an independent advisory firm to help Oklahoma policymakers understand natural gas-to-electricity conversion, microgrid technology, and decentralized power infrastructure. Operated entirely pro bono as a community service.
Establishes provisions for distributed energy resources (DERs) and microgrid generation, with a focus on behind-the-meter electric generation and Corporation Commission authorization for line construction in public rights-of-way. Authored by Sen. Dana Prieto and Rep. Brad Boles. FW Consulting provided the technical framework underpinning the bill's distributed generation definitions and behind-the-meter provisions.
Before moving into power generation, spent 17 years in technical oilfield operations, completions engineering, and industrial sales. That background gives reservoir-to-surface knowledge that most power executives simply do not have.

From SPE conference papers to national trade press to a state capitol presentation — writing and speaking that turns technical insight into policy and commercial action.
Two decades of hands-on work — from tank bays and wellheads to turbine pads and behind-the-meter microgrid sites. Real projects, real iron.
The career started with a wrench in a tank bay and a slide rule in a classroom — before there was ever a commercial deal to close.
