Danielle Cesario | Program Assistant
Danielle’s love for all things wine began during her undergrad program while working for Dr. Margie Ferree Jones at Cal PolyΒ Pomona. Under Dr. Jones, Danielle assisted class during the wine courses which laid a foundationalΒ appreciation for viticulture and wine making. Her bachelor’sΒ degree in HospitalityΒ Management took her to Napa, Florida and eventually Bordeaux. There she studied Wine Business and began her focus and researchΒ on winery and vineyard sustainabilityΒ certification and practices. Her love for regenerative practices, community and education is what continues to excite her and keep passion alive for the work that Napa Green and all its membersΒ do.Β
When she’s not working with Napa Green, Danielle is tending to her small property in Norco where she farms and lives on half an acre with her husband, two cows, cats, working dogs and a small flock of chickens and ducks.
Bill Bennett | Winery Program Engineer
Bill Bennett is trained and licensed as a Civil Engineer, and draws on decades of experience with commercial and industrial resource use to help Napa County wineries understand, manage, and reduce energy and water use. Beginning in 2016, Bill led the design and facilitation of βIntegrated Resource Auditsβ for wineries seeking Napa Green Winery certification or recertification. These one-stop, user friendly energy, water and waste evaluations baseline and track resource efficiency over time and provide targeted recommendations for both cost and resource savings. With more than 160 reviews to date, Bill has developed a broad portfolio of operational guidance and recommendations which have helped Napa Green wineries save more than $4 million in energy costs and over 27 million gallons of water (as of July 2021).
Prior to joining Napa Green, Bill was a key team member at Sustainable Napa County (SNC) where he designed and implemented a county-wide energy efficiency program for commercial customers of PG&E (Napa County Energy Watch). Prior to SNC, Bill was the Resident Engineer for the Anheuser-Busch InBev Fairfield brewery, where he led successful and innovative energy efficiency changes at this $500 million facility including 1 MW of ground mount tracking solar, 1.5 MW wind turbine, anaerobic digestion, upgrades and automation of compressed air, boilers, and ammonia refrigeration systems, making it a beacon for energy conservation in an industry, with production issues very similar to those of the winemaking community.
