Austin | Politican and Agency Official

Mr. Duncan has been involved in the energy field for many years. He served as a Research Fellow at the Energy Institute at the University of Texas, and earlier worked as General Manager for Austin Energy, the municipally-owned utility serving Austin. Prior to this role, he was Director for Planning, Environmental and Conservation Services within the City of Austin, and still earlier, served as a Councilmember for the City. He is proud of his role in helping to found the sustainable Mueller neighborhood, to initiate the first municipal energy conservation program in 1981, to found the first green building program in North America in 1990, to lead all US utilities for renewable energy sales (2000-9), and to establish a national campaign to persuade automakers to build plug-in hybrid vehicles.
