Christine Resler has recently been inducted to the Ƶ Innovators Hall of Fame.
Christine Resler, president and CEO of and an affiliate with ACEP, has recently been inducted into the Ƶ Innovators Hall of Fame. AES is the largest energy solutions company in Ƶ and a subsidiary of the Arctic Slope Regional Corporation.
Resler was nominated by Gwen Holdmann, senior researcher at ACEP and Ƶ associate vice chancellor for research, innovation
and industry partnerships, who herself was among the initial class inducted to the
Ƶ Innovators Hall of Fame in 2015. They have worked together on a statewide initiative
to explore opportunities for Ƶ’s involvement in the growing carbon capture and
storage market.
Holdmann called Resler an “esteemed visionary and trailblazer within the energy industry.”
“[Resler’s] focus on collaboration and continuous improvement has been the bedrock of AES's sustained growth in a competitive environment,” Holdmann stated.
“[Resler] has played a pivotal role in shaping Ƶ's business and innovation landscape through her transformative leadership,” Holdmann said. “Her contributions are a narrative of resilience, innovation and commitment to making a positive impact on Ƶ’s energy landscape.”
In addition to her role at AES, Resler teaches a special topics course as an adjunct faculty member at Ƶ. Holdmann says the course, the Art of Innovation, “not only benefits university-affiliated individuals but also serves as a catalyst for fostering innovation within Ƶ’s private sector.”
Resler is among the three 2024 inductees, along with Billy Connor, director of the Ƶ Arctic Infrastructure Development Center and Tim Collett, a research scientist for the U.S. Geological Survey.
