(Sept. 25) – Dallas-based renewable energy company Hover Energy has hired Reliance Holdings USA general counsel Kelly Cope to lead its corporate in-house legal department.
Hover Energy Chief Executive Officer Albert McLelland said that Cope’s two decades of experience as a corporate in-house counsel for energy companies makes him an excellent choice to handle legal and contractual matters.
A 1994 graduate of the University of Texas School of Law, Cope was Unicol’s general counsel over LNG from 1996 to 1998 in Indonesia. He served as corporate counsel at Devon Energy from 1998 to 2011. In the six years since, Cope has been the general counsel for the U.S. subsidiary of India-based Reliance.
Cope received a bachelor’s degree in business administration at Texas Tech University and an advanced degree in international studies at Queen Mary Westfield and the London School of Economics.
Hover Energy’s website claims the company possesses a transformative wind power generation technology and expects to remake the onsite wind energy market by providing an impactful wind power solution with high energy density and a wide range of applications, including the built environment.
