About GBA's Board of Directors

GBA’s Board of Directors collaborate 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 utility customer data.

The Board is kept intentionally small to enable fast-and effective decision-making, yet includes peer-elected Participating Member representatives to ensure that 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.

Sponsoring 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 two seats available for Participating Member company representation include:
    • A two-year seat — for the candidate garnering the most votes.
    • A one-year seat — for the candidate with the next-most number of votes.

Below are the current Directors.  The ballot-box icon (🗳️) denotes voting members of the Board.  Other members ex officio are nonvoting.  Elected Participating Members will be voting members of the Board.
