With a passion for environmental stewardship and a commitment to sustainable practices in the electrical engineering industry, Pravin Sankhwar brings an extensive amount of experience in engineering design and research. Holding a degree in master’s in electrical engineering from Michigan Tech, a bachelor’s in electrical engineering from Malviya National Institute of Technology, and a PhD candidate, he combines academic knowledge with practical expertise to drive meaningful change in renewable energy industry. Throughout his career, Pravin Sankhwar has successfully led projects that promote sustainable initiatives, reduce carbon footprints, and engage communities in eco-friendly practices. He believes in the power of collaboration and innovative thinking to address today’s environmental challenges. Pravin Sankhwar is a licensed Professional Engineer in Maryland and Texas. With significant years of experience in graduate-level studies, electrical engineering consulting business, and petroleum operations, he has contributed to safe practices in the industry per codes and standards. Since the majority of his projects were 600V and less, he happened to review and design lighting and power plans. When working in the building design and construction industry, he developed insights into the distribution of electrical power. Thus, he followed local building codes and National Electrical Code. This advanced his interest in obtaining International Code Council certification as a Commercial Electrical Inspector. Additionally, a sustainable practice background from my Master’s degree studies in electrical engineering led me to apply and earn Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design - LEED AP (BD+C) certification. The National Electrical Safety Code (NESC) has been his top resource when dealing with medium-voltage and high-voltage line clearances. It wasn’t long ago when he started preparing for his Professional Engineer exam and realized the importance of NESC in medium and high-voltage applications. This led him to become a NESC Subcommittee’s Principal Member
