David W Crane

NRG Energy Inc. former CEO

David Crane has been the President and Chief Executive Officer of NRG Energy since December 2003. Under his leadership, NRG has become a Fortune 500 company with enough generating capacity to power nearly 40 million homes, benefiting about 2.2 million retail customers. Crane established NRG’s strategy to enhance the Company’s core generation, expand retail businesses both geographically and through new offerings, and grow new green businesses. In 2012, NRG raised the bar to a new level in the competitive energy landscape by combining with GenOn Energy, nearly doubling generating capacity to about 47,000 megawatts and growing the Company to about 8,000 employees. In addition to building the Company’s financial strength, Crane is a leading voice on climate change and the power sector’s role in reducing greenhouse gases from the next wave of new power generation. He has been outspoken on the need to support cleaner energy resources and technologies critical to our transition to a low carbon-emitting society. Prior to joining NRG, Crane was Chief Executive Officer of International Power PLC, a UK-based wholesale power generation company. He also worked for Lehman Brothers and ABB Energy Ventures, where he was responsible for developing and financing independent power generation plants and transmission facilities in the Asia-Pacific region. Crane holds a bachelor of arts degree from Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and a juris doctor degree from Harvard Law School.
