Dan Rau is president and owner of Colorado Geothermal Drilling, located in Brighton, Colorado, and founded in 2005. The family-run business installs geothermal systems for residential and commercial customers across the Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins and Colorado Springs areas.
Considering the company was launched just before the 2008 economic recession, Rau is no stranger to adversity. The early and extraordinary obstacle meant pivoting drilling projects away from new construction to retrofits, but it didn’t stop the young business from advancing.
