Jane Melia, CEO and Co-founder, Harvest. Cambridge PhD in fluid dynamics, civil engineer, transformational business leader, mom of three, and low-key climate warrior whose EV license plate reads 350 MAXI. Jane started Harvest with her husband Pierre when their gas furnace broke down in 2018. As true energy nerds, Jane and her team have built an elegant, elemental
solution for 10% of Americaʼs carbon problem. Sheʼs now focused on collaborations and knowledge-sharing with stakeholders across the residential built environment. Her goal is to
enable decarbonization of thermal loads at the speed and scale demanded by the climate crisis. With 15 years of leadership at five startups, she knows her way around a boardroom as well. You can trust her to plan and irrigate your native garden – and she brews a mean cup of tea.
