His has built industry-leading startups by developing first-to-market innovations combined with an obsession with quality and customer service.

For Home Energy Club, he recently launched a technology solution which helps customers answer their primary question when using an electricity comparison site — namely, “which is the best energy plan specifically for my home”? His AI-driven Plan Picker, along with his TrustPlan process to vet electricity plans, helps customers to cut electricity bill surprises and find the plan which delivers the lowest annual cost for their home based on their actual SmartMeter energy usage.
As a business leader passionate about the environment, Frank developed expertise in the production of electricity from natural gas which is stranded at oilfield sites and historically burned into the atmosphere, producing massive emissions of methane. His MinerBeast firm connects Bitcoin miners with flare gas operators to reroute their gas to power mining operations, and bring an end to ozone-destroying gas emissions.
To promote the use of renewable energy in order to help reduce CO2, Frank created GetGreenEnergy.com in cooperation with major electricity providers which specialize in green energy sold at discount rates. Also, to engage young people in what will become the most critical issue of their generation, climate change, Frank and his son launched the Climate Champions Youth Art Contest.
Early in his career, Frank patented an invention to solve wastewater problems in the energy industry, providing competitors free use of his invention to help produce cleaner waterways.
