He has also been instrumental in the design and installation of solar, power storage and hydrogen-driven generation.

John Darling said, “CMG is one of the most exciting business opportunities I have seen. The clean tech space is exploding with innovation. I look forward to sharing my experience and network in a way that can help us scale up and deliver maximum value to all stakeholders.”

In his Microsoft position, Craig has worked with the largest enterprises across Europe, including many global energy companies, to design and execute their business transformations. Craig will bring his expertise to support the CMG Board and executive team in strategy and acquisitions, positioning the company to become a world-class renewable energy player. 

Craig Miller said, “With the new Board of Directors now in place, CMG is very well positioned to accelerate bringing to market and deploying new environmental technologies that will make a difference to our planet. We are leveraging our extensive partner network to bring our technology to large-scale deployments, setting new levels of efficiency for low-carbon solutions. Our strategy is to grow CMG by acquiring new technologies, enabling us to offer greater choice to our customers and to increase the positive impact CMG will have in the market and on the environment.” 

Commenting on the new appointees, CMG’s CEO, Darren Taylor said: “The objective of these new appointments is to build on our clean energy and business-building experience, while strengthening our position in this fast-paced industry. We now have an extremely experienced Board, and our new Chair (Président du Conseil d’Administration), John Darling will be a huge asset to CMG as we roll out our innovative technology to a wider market.
