Speaker: Danita Park

Electric Vehicles (EV) are at the tipping point of mass adoption. Join Danita Park on a journey that will navigate the macro drivers at play spurring EV adoption in the United States and Texas, explore exciting new EVs entering the market, examine barriers of EV adoption, and challenge commonly held misconceptions along the way.

Danita Park, Director of EV and Commercial Development at NRG, is responsible for innovating new sustainable advisory solutions for business retail customers. With 20 years of energy industry experience, she works across functional teams to provide insight and guidance to customers seeking new solutions to meet sustainable and electrification goals. Previously, Danita was the Director of Asset Management in the NRG East Region, responsible for the economic performance of nearly 7,000 MW of electric generating facilities in New York, New England, and New Jersey. Before joining NRG, she held wholesale commodity roles at Dynegy and Calpine. Always curious and passionate about learning, she holds a BSC in Biochemistry and an MBA from the University of Calgary, Canada.


PLEASE NOTE OUR NEW REGISTRATION POLICY:
Due to new protocol from the Downtown Club regarding their food ordering timeline plus the lack of a buffet during COVID to handle walk-in registrants, we have had to make the following changes:
  • Registration will now close at 12 noon on the Tuesday before the luncheon.
  • Any luncheon registrations that have not been prepaid by credit card will only be held until 11:40 AM on the day of the luncheon. After that, they will be released to any walk-ins who are onsite. Therefore, we strongly suggest that you prepay for your luncheon to guarantee your spot.
  • The Downtown Club is charging an increased price for any plates added after the Tuesday noon deadline. Therefore, any late registrants will be charged an additional $10 for their luncheon. Late registrations will be accepted between 12 noon on the Tuesday before the lunch through 12 noon on Wednesday. All late registrants must prepay for their lunch. To place and pay for a late registration, please call Penny Sullivan at 281-974-0624.
  • Walk-in spaces will be limited due to the lack of a buffet to handle overflow. The only walk-in spaces available will be those left vacant by pre-registered no-shows. Therefore, we strongly suggest that you pre-register for the lunch.
We thank you for your understanding and hope to return to a more relaxed policy as COVID cases decline.

Registration Options

Online registration is now closed. Please contact Donna Foy if you are interested in late registration.
