Comfort Systems’ Brewster Earle Appointed as Chair of ABC National Green Building Committee

“Brewster will be a great asset for this new committee and will play a key role with other members to help meet the challenges ahead,” said Fairchild. “We look forward to his leadership to ensure that ABC remains in the forefront and our members continue to thrive in the green building industry.”

Brewster stated: “I am pleased and honored to be appointed Chair of this important committee. Green building is one of our industry’s most far-reaching and important topics. Since I joined Comfort Systems USA Energy Services in 2003 we have worked to ensure that Comfort Systems remains at the forefront of green building, and I will work harder than ever to serve ABC’s members in this complementary position.”

Bill Murdy, Comfort Systems USA’s Chairman and CEO, said, “We are happy to support Brewster in this endeavor. In a typical building, the HVAC system is the largest user of energy, commonly accounting for half of the energy usage of large facilities. In order to address the energy and green building concerns that are so important to our customers and stakeholders, we have invested heavily over the past few years to develop a service offering and capability that can deliver credible results. Our support for Brewster is a logical extension of our commitment to having unmatched green building expertise and credentials.”

Brewster started with Comfort Systems USA Energy Services in 2003 as Director of Business Development, and in addition to his current position as President with Energy Services, he was recently appointed to the position of Senior Corporate Vice President Energy Services, responsible for corporate strategy and marketing for energy services. Brewster’s primary expertise is in financial and economic modeling, and on a national basis Brewster leads Comfort Systems USA’s energy project development, green building training, and green awareness efforts.
