Meet The Team
The Brilliant Energy Institute is powered by a small but mighty team that brings people, expertise and ideas together to advance clean energy solutions. We act as the connector linking Ontario Tech’s deep research strengths with an extensive network of international industry partners and organizations, government collaborators, community leaders and academic experts.
Our team coordinates and drives interdisciplinary projects, knowledge exchange and events that amplify impact far beyond our size. Alongside our dedicated alumni, who continue to contribute to the energy and sustainability sectors across Canada and beyond, we create a dynamic ecosystem of collaborators eager to build a climate resilient future.
Meet the team and the brilliant network behind BEI’s work.
