:XSNX), developer of Power Glass(TM) -- an innovative solar technology that allows glass windows to produce electricity from the power of the sun, announced today that Dr. Richard Rocheleau has joined the Company's Scientific Advisory Board. Dr. Rocheleau brings over 25 years of experience as a recognized leader in the development of material and device sciences for applications in the solar and renewable power industry. As an advisor he will offer strategic guidance in XsunX's thin-films process development and research efforts.

"XsunX is working to ensure that we execute on our vision for the wide scale use of architectural glass as a power-generating platform and our mission to become a leader in the building integrated photovoltaics industry," stated Tom Djokovich, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board.  of XsunX. "Enlisting the help of scientists such as Dr. Rocheleau is one of the best ways to ensure that success.

. At HNEI, Dr. Rocheleau established the HNEI Thin Films Laboratory and developed a research program focused on thin film photovoltaics and renewable hydrogen production Hydrogen production is commonly completed from hydrocarbon fossil fuels via a chemical path. Hydrogen may also be extracted from water via biological production in an algae bioreactor, or using electricity (by electrolysis) or heat (by thermolysis); these methods are presently not  having near-term applications in both the commercial and military sectors. Dr. Rocheleau also serves as the PI of several programs including the Hawaii Energy and Environmental Technology Initiative, and the Hawaii Hydrogen Center for the Development and Deployment of Distributed Energy Systems. He is the author of over 30 publications in peer reviewed journals and over 20 conference proceedings in the areas of photovoltaics, photo electrochemical electrochemical /elec·tro·chem·i·cal/ (-kem´i-k'l) pertaining to interaction or interconversion of chemical and electrical energies.

Leveraging his extensive scientific and leadership capabilities he has led teams of scientists/engineers in multi-disciplinary programs providing contract research and development of PV and semiconductor manufacturing processes and has provided consulting services to a number of domestic and international firms including, Chronar Corporation, Solarex, First Solar, Trex Enterprises and Global Solar Inc. Dr. Rocheleau received his BChE and PhD (1980) in Chemical Engineering from the University of Delaware [3] The student body at the University of Delaware is largely an undergraduate population. Delaware students have a great deal of access to work and internship opportunities.  and a M.S. in Ocean Engineering (1977) from the University of Hawaii.
