At age 52, Mark Klein, while fighting cancer and being a devoted parent to a son with autism, co-founded Broad Reach Power and built a national renewable energy storage business that he sold 5 years later for $1 billion. Humbled by his great fortune, Mark founded Pacific Northwest Energy Consultant so he can devote his life to bringing renewable energy to underserved communities throughout the US. He also generously gives his time and resources to support organizations like the Autism Society of San Diego. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
