Chris Wright_Meeting Request Form 2.17.2025.docx Alex -- Hope you are doing well! Following up on the below, is there any availability later this month for Sec. Wright to chat with Invenergy? Understand that there are a lot of moving pieces -- but resharing their previous request -- and hoping there is an opportunity we can find to connect with them. As mentioned by Heather, CRES has recently created a partners program with corporations that align with our all-of-the-above energy positioning. To that end. our partner Invenergy, which develops, owns, and operates gas, hydrogen, geothermal, transmission, solar, wind, and storage assets across the country, is looking to connect its CEO Michael Polsky and president, Jim Murphy, with the Secretary for a meeting in Washington. (I believe they are both headquartered in Chicago, if the Secretary may be traveling anytime soon to that part of the country.) Andrew Wills, who is in house at Invenergy, has submitted a few meeting requests, one of which is attached, but he elevated it to me since he had not heard back from the Department. Depending on the date of the meeting, Heather may attend the meeting with Invenergy. They are looking for dates in April but certainly will meet sooner or later if the Secretary's schedule allows for it. Suggested dates are 4/15, 4/21, or 4/22, but again, they are flexible based on the Secretary's availability.
