Hayden Wood is Bulb’s co-founder and chief executive. As the UK’s largest renewable energy supplier, Bulb aims to make energy simpler, cheaper and greener, using technology to help people lower their bills and their carbon emissions. Prior to founding Bulb in 2015, Wood studied economics at The London School of Economics and spent 10 years as a management consultant, first at Monitor Group and then Bain & Company. During his time working with one of the major UK energy suppliers, Wood became aware of the inefficiencies inherent in traditional energy companies and the lack of affordable renewable energy options for UK consumers. He decided to leave Bain and use his industry experience to found Bulb, alongside old friend and co-founder Amit Gudka.
