NREL looking for a few good execs… for Energy Academy

By Paul Dvorak | February 10, 2013

nrelApplications are being accepted for the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s (NREL) 2013 Executive Energy Leadership Academy. The Executive Energy Leadership Academy, also known as Energy Execs, is for non-technical decision-makers throughout the country to learn about renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies, analytical tools, and financing. Leaders in government, communities, non-profits and the private sector are eligible.

There are two Energy Execs learning opportunities, including the Leadership Program and the Leadership Institute. Programs provide executive decision-makers with information and tools to guide their organizations and communities in energy-related planning.

“Private industry, higher education, and government rely on leaders with vision and drive to make the transition to sustainable, secure, clean electricity and fuel,” says NREL Director Dan Arvizu. “The programs play an important role in bringing those leaders together to learn about what is possible and to strategize about market-viable solutions.”

Representatives from 150 industry, government, and non-profit organizations have completed the program since 2007. Participants are selected from a national pool of candidates.

Candidates can apply for one of two programs. NREL’s Leadership Program is a traditional, comprehensive program for executives with an interest in an in-depth exploration of renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies, applications, and issues. It requires travel to Golden, Colo., and attendance once a month for five months. It includes five three-day sessions completed May through September.

NREL’s Leadership Institute is a shorter, condensed program that includes one three-day workshop session in May. Learn more about Energy Execs and apply online at NREL’s Executive Energy Leadership Academy. The application deadline is March 8, 2013.
