CEO Council
CEO Council Activities and Resources
The CEO Council will meet at least two times per year, and be actively connected to other CEO Council members:
- Two CEO Council Dinners per year: a CEO Council dinner will be held at ACORE's Renewable Energy Finance Forum (REFF) in New York, and a Renewable Energy in America policy conference (PHASE II) in Washington, DC. Prospective members may attend one meeting at nominal cost to get to know the Council.
- Washington Policy Breakfasts: ACORE will coordinate monthly breakfasts with policy makers nine times a year, giving CEOs an opportunity to interact with policy makers in an intimate, informal setting.
- On-Call Research: CEO Council members may call on ACORE for small research projects (data for a speech, background for testimony, etc).
- CEO Teleconferences: ACORE will host periodic teleconferences/webinars for CEO Council members on key topics.
- Contact information for CEO Council members: Each member will receive full contact information for fellow CEO Council members to network, engage in industry discussion, and stay in communication.
The CEO Council is governed by a board of co-chairmen, one each for: solar, wind, geothermal, hydro/ocean, biofuels, smart grid, international, entrepreneurs, professional services, renewable energy project finance, energy efficiency project finance, venture capital, ACORE Board, ACORE Advisory Board, government, and education.
