The Gas Company Names Joseph J. Boivin, Jr. Vice President—Operations
The Gas Company (TGC), Hawaii’s clean gas energy provider, has named Joseph J. Boivin, Jr. as Vice President—Operations. He is responsible for overseeing operating activities of TGC’s island business units statewide. Mr. Boivin reports to Thomas K.L.M. Young, Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.
“Joe’s expertise will help us deliver reliable, clean gas energy to our customers as we expand the management infrastructure for our operating units,” said Mr. Young. “His oversight will also enable our senior management team to devote more resources to the new initiatives we are pursuing to increase the renewable portion of our gas supply.”
Prior to joining The Gas Company, Mr. Boivin was a Senior Associate in the Honolulu office of Booz Allen Hamilton, a global strategy and technology consulting firm. Earlier in his career he served as a Managing Director for Washington Capital Partners, LLC, a private equity investment fund, Research Staff Member at The Institute for Defense Analyses supporting the Secretary of Defense and a Manufacturing Engineer at Northrop Grumman where he led several large-scale projects for the Department of Defense. Mr. Boivin holds a BS in Mechanical Engineering and an MBA in Finance from the University of Arkansas, as well as an Executive MBA in International Business from Georgetown University.
The Gas Company has been in business since 1904 and has a workforce of 300 professionals. It provides clean, reliable and energy-efficient gas to residential, business and government customers throughout the state of Hawaii — Oahu, Maui, Hawaii, Kauai, Molokai and Lanai. The Company manufactures synthetic natural gas (SNG) at its 16.7 million-cubic-foot-capacity plant located on Oahu and supplies SNG through a 1,100-mile pipeline network, and supplies propane gas (LPG) statewide. TGC is developing technology to further reduce its carbon footprint by incorporating domestically produced, renewable alternatives to petroleum for gas supply in Hawaii.
