GRC Annual Meeting: Opening Session enough change in the industry where we become the tail that wags the renewable’s dog; show everybody how it’s done.” Gregg Rotenberg, Vice President of Strategy and Renewable Energy Investment at Chevron announced that the company is re-entering the U.S. geothermal power market after an absence of some years. (See Inside Geothermal on page 9.) He also made a rallying call for the industry: “It’s time for geothermal to stop being renewable energy’s wallflower. It’s time for geothermal to take its rightful place as a leader among renewable energies. My challenge to you is that the only way we all get there is if we help our industry identify truly great projects. We need to provide the quality of knowledge that’s needed so that everyone knows which fork in the road leads to prosperity and success. Only then can we convince all the necessary investors, the lenders and the public, of our credibility, and only then will we succeed in creating a bigger, stronger geothermal industry.” Richard Campbell, GRC president, with Paul Thomsen, president of the GEA at his side, spoke about the proposed consolidation of the GRC and the GEA. “An announcement was sent to all members of both organizations last year stating that both boards of directors determined that a consolidation of the two organizations was in the best interest of the geothermal community. A committee, consisting of members of both boards, is leading this effort and making good progress.” “With unanimous support from the boards of directors of both the GRC and the GEA, a legal firm was jointly hired to investigate options for consolidating the entities. This firm pointed out the difficulties of merging a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non- profit public benefit organization, the GRC, with a 501(c)(6) tax-exempt non-profit trade association, the GEA. The firm discussed options for moving forward and later this year we are planning a first joint meeting of the GRC and GEA boards to discuss these options.” Paul Thomsen, GEA President (left) speaks about GEA and GRC plans and missions as Richard Campbell, GRC President, looks on. “I want you all to know that I give my total support to the joint relationship of the Geothermal Energy Association and the Geothermal Resources Council. I believe this will benefit the geothermal community worldwide.” Edward Njoroge, CEO of the Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen), and GRC member, made comments from the floor: “I want to thank the presenters for giving us a reality check because far too often we come to these conferences and it’s all good news. It is good to have a reality check on what we are doing.” The crowded Opening Session adjourned and the attendees went out to take part in Technical Sessions, Poster Sessions, Workshops, Field Trips, the Membership Meeting and Awards Luncheon, and walk the aisles of the GEA Trade Show. It was going to be a busy and fulfilling week for all. opening session photos by Jerry Newton Photography. Background photo on page 26 provided by J.
