The Center on Global Energy Policy (CGEP) at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs welcomes Partner Tommy Beaudreau as the latest addition to its Distinguished Visiting Fellows program.

The Distinguished Visiting Fellows Program brings renowned energy experts and public and private sector veterans into the Columbia University community. During their appointments, fellows connect with researchers, scholars and students to offer their real-world experiences in policy-making and problem-solving.

Tommy Beaudreau is Co-Chair of WilmerHale’s Energy, Environment and Natural Resources Practice. His practice focuses on a broad range of areas including conventional and renewable energy and large-scale infrastructure projects; environmental regulatory, litigation and enforcement matters; crisis management and response; and Tribal matters. In addition, Mr. Beaudreau leads internal investigations and responses to government investigations and congressional oversight.

“I am excited to re-join the CGEP community to advance serious strategic and policy discussions on some of the most significant challenges we face today relating to climate and energy transition,” said Tommy Beaudreau. “This includes thinking through the energy mix, the revitalization of communities dependent on natural resource development, responsible sourcing of materials necessary for renewable energy and technology development, as well as environmental justice and the rights of Indigenous communities.”
