History of the EI

The Energy Institute was formed by the 2003 merger between the two v꧂enerable institutions: the I♌nstitute of Petroleum (founded 1913) and the Institute of Energy (founded 1925).

From its founding to 2021, Louise Kingham was its Chief Executive. She was a professional with over 24 years of experience in the energy industry. Prior to their merger, Ms. Kingham served at both the Ins💙titute of Petroleum and the Energy Institute.

As of 2021, EI's current Chief Executive is Nick Wayth, a 22 year-veteran of BP plc. His most recent post was that of  Chief Development Officer of Alternative Energy, where he led BP’s strategy and business development in a broad range of renewable technologies.

EI's Council President is Steve Holliday, the former Chief Executive of National Grid plc and the current Chairman of CityFibre and Zenobe.

Special Considerations

In addition to providing 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:networking opportunities and training to those in the energy industry, the Energy Instit𝐆ute provides a wealth of information relating to all types of energ🐬y. Some of the information is based on research done by EI itself, while other information is from third parties. EI has an extensive library containing publications about the energy industry dating as far back as the mid-19th century.

Information can also be obtained online through EI's Energy Matrix, a digital database containing over 80,000 resources. EI members can opt to receive two magazines, Petroleum Review and Energy World, and have access to The Journal of the Energy Institute.
