2022 ANS Annual Meeting
Ms. Hotchkiss has 35 years of experience bringing new energy technologies to market. In the late 80’s she helped build a market for “fringe” technologies. Today we know them as geothermal, wind and solar – the stalwarts of renewable energy. Her career spans regulation, advocacy as well as private sector power generation. With ECG she now dedicates her expertise to building a roadmap for fusion as a regulated, accepted, and welcomed green commercial choice. Ms. Hotchkiss holds a bachelor’s degree in history from Yale College.
