Mr. Brad Crabtree is the Assistant Secretary for the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE's) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM), where he leads and directs FECM’s research and development programs. Mr. Crabtree brings nearly three decades of experience in energy and climate policy to his role as Assistant Secretary. Prior to joining DOE, he served as Vice President for Carbon Management at the Great Plains Institute (GPI), where he cofounded and directed the Carbon Capture Coalition, which works to advance carbon management technologies to meet climate goals, create high-wage jobs, and support domestic energy and industrial production. At GPI, Mr. Crabtree also helped launch the bipartisan State Carbon Capture Work Group to foster deployment of carbon capture and carbon dioxide transport infrastructure, and he led GPI’s efforts to establish the Industrial Innovation Initiative aimed at decarbonizing key industries. Additionally, he co-directed Powering the Plains, a project that crafted a comprehensive 50-year regional blueprint for energy efficiency, renewable energy, and carbon capture. Mr. Crabtree previously coordinated energy policy advisory groups for the Midwestern Governors Association and facilitated the Midwestern Greenhouse Gas Reduction Accord Advisory Group for six governors and the premier of Manitoba. He has also led multiple overseas delegations of U.S. policymakers and private sector leaders to examine other countries’ policies and experience in carbon management and renewable energy technology. A North Dakota native, Mr. Crabtree is a graduate of the Georgetown School of Foreign Service and has an MA in history from Johns Hopkins University.

As the manager of the Office of Innovations in Planning and Air Quality Data with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, Air Pollution Control Division, Stefanie Rucker searches for creative opportunities to reduce air pollutant emissions in ways that are efficient, data-driven, and most importantly effective. She has a Master of Science degree in environmental engineering and has been with the Division since January 2008, spending the majority of that time working on oil and gas related air quality issues, permitting, and regulation. She loves talking to stakeholders and industry members about how, together, we can meet all of our air quality goals. Her biggest achievements are when she can get disparate groups to collaborate and even find consensus on the many difficult problems we face. Stefanie has represented the Division in the development of: 1) Colorado’s Storage Tank and Vapor Control System Guidelines, 2) the first ever O&G methane control requirements adopted in February 2014, 3) the upstream intensity and midstream steering committee rules adopted in December 2021, and 4) the intensity verification rule adopted in July 2023. She has been recognized for her work with a Clean Air Excellence Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and a Frank Johnson Environmental Excellence Award from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

Edward Lush is a Director of Business Development in the New Energy Ventures group at Williams. Edward joined Williams in September 2022 and is focused on the development and commercialization of low carbon products, specifically differentiated gas and renewable natural gas. Prior to Williams, Edward worked as the Head of Midstream at Project Canary for close to a year, where he led midstream strategy and business development initiatives. Before Project Canary, Edward spent 8 years in the midstream sector with MarkWest Energy Partners and then MPLX (a subsidiary of Marathon Petroleum Corporation) following MPLX’s acquisition of MarkWest. During his time at MPLX, Edward held various commercial roles, including leading business development efforts for all of MPLX’s gathering, processing, and fractionation assets in the Marcellus and Utica shales. Edward began his career as a corporate and transactional lawyer, working both in private practice and in-house. Edward holds a JD from the Washington University in St. Louis School of Law and an MA in Geography and International Relations from the University of St. Andrews in Scotland.

Tracey leads climate engagement work with the oil and gas industry at Ceres, a sustainability non-profit that supports investors who are evaluating risks posed by pressing sustainability issues. Tracey believes that meaningful climate engagement is founded in open dialogue that balances industry challenges with investor interests in managing portfolio climate risk. Focus areas have included incorporation of climate considerations in O&G financial reporting; midstream industry engagement and the role in the energy transition; the E&P net zero path; a Permian Basin collaborative effort with operators to identify actions to reduce emissions broadly across the basin. Prior to Ceres Tracey was a governance and ESG analyst at Fidelity where she played an integral in launching the ESG Office.
