Statement
The energy industry is at the center of
a profound change. The electric grid
we've built over generations, working
in the background to serve society's
needs, is increasingly in the spotlight
today. Climate change is no longer a
warning for the future but a stark reality
we face every day. The technological
advances and standards necessary to
address these challenges would seem
daunting to most, but as engineers, we
do not shy away from problems. We
run toward them. We solve problems
through innovation, and IEEE-PES is
the energy sector's leading professional
society equipped to embrace our member's
ingenuity to innovate the solutions
we need.
If elected, my mission will be to
empower all PES members globally to
lead these efforts by serving as a cata96
ieee
power & energy magazine
lyst for action and as a bold champion
for a greener and secure energy future.
As President-Elect, I will bring my vision,
passion, and collaborative leadership
to the role. I pledge to bring together
all our members' voices to leave
the world better than we found it.
