E. Patrick Jenevein III – President
Patrick Jenevein entered the energy sector in 1986 when he founded The Nolan Group, the general partner of Tang Energy Group, to build a business developing, installing, and operating natural gas processing and gathering facilities, and developing oil and gas reserves. In 1996, Mr. Jenevein formed Tang Energy Group along with Dr. Yih Min Jan with the goal of pursuing growing opportunities in the clean energy sector internationally. Mr. Jenevein's extensive worldwide experience in the clean energy business, especially in China and the United States, uniquely positions Tang to benefit from the growing business of energy diversification and wise stewardship of the environment. Mr. Jenevein chairs Tang's Board of Directors and has led Tang's growth since its founding.
