Co-Founder, Eden Energy · PJM Certified Dispatcher
David Lim
Los Angeles, California
The certified dispatcher selling power market operation services on the PJM market he learned to operate.
David Lim co-founded Eden Energy Technologies in 2026 to sell PJM market operation services such as power trading, outage scheduling, and asset reporting at edenenergy.ai, and studies for a Chicago Booth MBA while he runs it. He reached that seat the long way: natural gas at Vega Energy, solar finance at Lightsource BP, a first venture in Terra2, then three Invenergy roles that took him from scheduling generation to trading it day-ahead as a PJM Certified Generation Dispatcher. Alongside the work he reviews the Department of Energy's CyberForce competition.

2025–PRESENT
Founding Eden Energy and an MBA at Chicago Booth
David co-founds Eden Energy Technologies in May 2026 to sell PJM market operation services at edenenergy.ai, positioning the firm on the credential he earned first — PJM Certified Generation Dispatcher — and the day-ahead desk he traded at Invenergy. He runs it while earning a Chicago Booth MBA on the Dean's Honor List.
“We are a nimble team of operators experienced in all ISOs in the United States. Our primary focus is PJM as we are PJM Certified Generation Dispatchers with real-time and day-ahead experience.”
2023–2025
Trading electricity at Invenergy
Three successive Invenergy roles in Chicago, from Power Scheduler to Day Ahead Power Trader to Trading Associate (2023–2025), convert David's analyst background into live power-market operating experience. This is where he earns the PJM Certified Generation Dispatcher credential — the operating heart of the résumé Eden Energy is built on.
2019–2022
Solar finance and a first venture
David moves from gas into solar finance at Lightsource BP (2019), structuring power purchase agreements and running M&A for bp's solar subsidiary, then founds his first company, Terra2, in San Francisco. The founder chapter overlaps the pandemic's onset, during which he volunteers as a CORE COVID tester.
“Entrepreneurial experience & managing team”
2015–2018
Cutting teeth in natural gas
David's energy career begins on the gas side at Vega Energy in Houston — a 2015 internship, then a full-time Analyst role (2017–2018) covering natural gas commodities, scheduling, and pipeline infrastructure. He graduates Harvard Cum Laude in Economics in 2017, the same year he returns to Vega full-time.

2008–2014
Economics foundations
Before energy, David reads Economics at Harvard (2013–2017, Cum Laude), captaining the Federal Reserve Challenge and leading the MIR Investment Club, with a 2014 LSE summer term. It follows a Valedictorian finish at West Ranch High School — early, applied interest in markets and monetary policy.
