By broadening capabilities and deepening expertise in key market verticals, Roeslein aims to serve a wider customer base, mitigate risk, and unlock new revenue opportunities.

“For more than 15 years, our Business Development team has successfully pursued modular systems work across the U.S.,” said John DeMoulin, Vice President, Business Development & Marketing. “With this new division, we’re formalizing our commitment to the industrial manufacturing space and positioning ourselves to lead in this rapidly evolving market.”

To spearhead the division, Roeslein has made four strategic hires: Dave Mills, President, Industrial Manufacturing; Scott Rahn, Senior Vice President, Industrial Manufacturing; Jake Naeger, Director, Process Engineering; and Carl Grass, Project Director. Together, they bring more than 80 years of experience in industrial manufacturing, having worked with leading brands such as Kraft Heinz, PepsiCo, Coca-Cola, Sherwin Williams, Nestlé, Mark Anthony, and Anheuser-Busch. Their expertise spans Consumer Products, Advanced Manufacturing, and Mission Critical sectors.

“Dave, Scott, Jake, and Carl’s deep industry knowledge and client-first approach, combined with Roeslein’s strengths in prefabrication and modular manufacturing, create a powerful foundation for this new division,” said Brian Sneed, CEO of Roeslein & Associates. “As customer demand for speed to market and turnkey solutions grows, we are uniquely equipped to deliver agile, efficient, and dependable results.” The launch of the Industrial Manufacturing division represents a pivotal moment for Roeslein, reinforcing its position as one of the few vertically integrated Engineering, Procurement, Fabrication and Construction (EPFC) providers in the industry. This expansion not only strengthens the company’s business but also opens new opportunities for employees and partners alike.

Rural America Faces Mounting Farm Crisis — Roeslein Renewables says Global Maritime Shift Could Unlock $200 Billion in New Agricultural Revenues


International Maritime Organization’s Net-Zero Framework May Offer Long-Term Solution for U.S. Farmers Through Biofuel Demand

ST. LOUIS, Mo. (Sept. 29, 2025) — Rural America is under mounting financial pressure as commodity prices for corn and soybeans have fallen 40-50% from recent highs, while production costs remain elevated. A recent National Corn Growers Association survey shows that nearly half of U.S. farmers believe the nation is on the brink of a farm crisis.1 For many, 2025 marks the third consecutive year of negative profitability, threatening both food security and the stability of local economies.

Industry leaders stress that short-term fixes will not be enough. Instead, new and durable demand markets are required to restore profitability for America’s farmers. A potential breakthrough may come this October, when the International Maritime Organization (IMO) is expected to finalize its Net-Zero Framework, requiring large ocean-going vessels to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions beginning in 2027.2

Prairie Prophets Production Team Wins 2025 Prairie Communicator Award

The Prairie Prophets Production Team of Roeslein Alternative Energy produces the Prairie Prophets multimedia platform, which explores and shares the many benefits of prairie and prairie plantings to agriculture, water quality, renewable energy, rural economies, pollinator conservation, carbon storage, and wildlife habitat.  The name of this educational series is a play on both “profit”— financial gain that can be derived from prairie plantings, and from “prophet”— an effective or leading spokesperson for a cause or idea. Prairie Prophets has featured hunters, prairie conservationists, renewable energy professionals, landowners, and others to effectively communicate the many-faceted benefits of prairie and prairie plants to a diverse audience.

Alternative Energy and Conservation Pioneer Roeslein Renewables Earns International Renewable Energy Certification

Roeslein Renewables, a leader in alternative energy and conservation, has been awarded ISCC PLUS and ISCC EU certifications for biomass feedstocks used in renewable natural gas (RNG) production. This is the first ISCC certification for biomass-based crop residues, including cover crops, processed for clean-burning RNG.

The certification represents a critical step in expanding market access for U.S.-produced RNG in fast-growing international renewable energy markets. It also opens new revenue opportunities and supports rural and agricultural economies.

“With agricultural trade deficits likely to reach record highs in 2025, unlocking new export markets for U.S.-produced renewable natural gas can be a critical part of the solution,” said Bryan Sievers, director of government relations for Roeslein Renewables.

  • Large-Scale RNG Projects: Establishing capabilities to process diverse portfolios of agricultural feedstocks, including unlocking the potential for biomass and regenerative agriculture.
