Zach Pettis joins Verterra Energy with 20 years of experience in the aerospace industry designing systems and leading teams on rocket, satellite, and aircraft programs. In his most recent role at Collins Aerospace, an RTX business, Zach held roles in Program Management and Value Stream Management. At Orbital Sciences Corporation, he worked on the Orion spacecraft, the Cygnus spacecraft supporting the International Space Station, and Stratolaunch (the world's largest aircraft), as well as holding roles in electronics packaging and systems engineering.
“Zach joins us with strong experience in the aerospace and defense sectors, designing complex systems and managing programs / product lines of significant size and volume. His experience with both DOD and commercial customers is critical to our portfolio of operational energy programs, as we transition our technology to rate production. We are excited to welcome Zach to the Verterra team!' - Brian Kane | COO
"Working in this field has been a lifelong dream of mine; the ability to harness the power of running water has fascinated me since childhood. There's a palpable sense that big things are happening within these walls, and I feel incredibly grateful and excited to be part of this journey." - Zach Pettis | Program Manager.
Verterra is on a mission to harness the power of flowing water in rivers, oceans and canals to produce abundant, reliable power.
Volturnus is a vertical axis turbine that uniquely harnesses the power of flowing water by combining the working principles of centrifugal pumps & hydrofoils with a rugged, hydrodynamic design. Similar to an underwater 3D weather vane, VOLTURNUS works in harmony with the current to dynamically adjust once deployed. When installed in modular arrays, the technology creates scalable, continuous power from small, 100 watt backpack scale, up to multi-MW arrays.
Based in St. Paul, MN Verterra is funded by mission driven investors and a multi-year DoD contract to commercialize the technology for multiple applications.
