NAEMA recently held the 2020 Board of Directors election. Six (6) of the twelve (12) Board positions were up for election for a two (2) year term, starting May 2, 2020. NAEMA is very pleased to announce that following candidates were elected:
• Bret Estep, Tenaska Power Services,
• Cindy Hammarlund, ALLETE Clean Energy
• Dean Jones, NorthPoint Energy Solutions
• Claudia Morrow, Vistra Energy
• Bill Nielsen, Uniper Global Commodities
• Karyn Scanlon (NAEMA Board Secretary), Manitoba Hydro
Many thanks to all of the candidates for their willingness to serve NAEMA and its membership.
In addition, the following Board members will continue to serve for the second year of their two (2) year term:
• Jay Alexander (NAEMA Board Vice President), TransAlta Energy Marketing
• Vince Findley, AEP Energy Partners
• Kristen Gamache, Enel Trading
• Joni Hamson, EDF Renewables
• Cham Kong, ACES Power Marketing
• Jim Richardson (NAEMA Board President), Avant Energy
I would also like to recognize Tim Noeldner (WPPI Energy) who chose to not run for re-election to the Board. Tim served NAEMA in numerous roles over many, many years and has been one of the true stalwarts guiding NAEMA’s development and growth. On behalf of the Board Members and all of NAEMA’s members, I would like to recognize and thank Tim for his invaluable efforts over the years…he will be missed (though I’m hopeful he’ll continue to attend NAEMA’s Conferences).
In that vein, please mark your calendars for NAEMA’s Fall Conference, hosted by Maxar, scheduled for October 5-7, 2020, at the Loews Atlanta Hotel. We’ll be sure to keep you posted on conference details, or any changes associated with the ongoing COVID-19 situation, as we get closer to the date. Thank you and stay safe!
