"ALLY Energy is thrilled to be the first and only US company to participate in this historic transatlantic allyship. The Women's Energy Network Alliance is a powerhouse of energy leaders dedicated to a cleaner future. Together, we will lead the charge toward net zero with innovation, tenacity, and resilience, and ALLY will serve as the platform to connect professionals to jobs," commented Katie Mehnert, ALLY Energy founder and chief executive officer. Mehnert is also an ambassador for the United States Department of Energy and a Representative to the National Petroleum Council.
This allyship which supports the rights of minority or marginalized groups was founded on one common mission: to make much faster progress on female representation in the energy sector to meet the urgent energy transition challenges today and in the future.
"We're happy to partner with representatives from the US and UK to advocate for women in all aspects of the energy industry. We are confident that the Women's Energy Network Alliance will be beneficial to women of all ages and at all stages of their careers," commented Grace Kimberley, Women's Energy Network Alliance project manager.
