His experience includes obtaining hundreds of air, solid waste, and water permits for health care facilities, and universities including several Power Plants. He has undertaken many complex environmental issues and advised facilities of appropriate corrective actions, thus saving millions of dollars. Under his supervision, many hospitals and universities were brought into complete regulatory compliance with reference to the EPA’s Federal Clean Air Act and other stricter Rules.

On a weekly basis, EES mitigates hundreds of Violations by legalizing the (non-compliant) operating sources by providing as needed engineering support. He created several proprietary calculations for use in assessing the NYC local laws for sustainability, greenhouse gas emission reductions. During the peak Covid 19, Dr. Kasinathan and EES team played vital role in obtaining emergency authorizations for the tents to accommodate the patients in many hospitals. He frequently speaks in conferences and seminars on the topics of energy, environment, digital economics, green buildings, sustainability, emission reductions and regulatory compliance, and has published several articles as well.
