GBA Board of Directors

GBA’s Board of Directors collaborates to broaden adoption of standards-based Green Button data technologies that enable energy and water utilities to offer secure, customer data-access and -sharing platforms and new services that leverage standardized Green Button customer data.

The Board is kept intentionally small to enable nimble decision-making, yet includes peer-elected Participating Member representatives to ensure a diversity of opinions and company types are represented: from utilities to vendors that serve utilities; and from third-party service providers to government representatives.

Sponsor members delegate a Board representative.  Participating Member elections to the Board of Directors are held in the second half of each year for the coming year’s representation.

The ballot-box icon (🗳️) denotes voting members of the Board.  Other members ex officio are nonvoting.
