Shell communications boss named new CEO of Aberdeen renewables group AREG

Wednesday, June 30 2021

Renewable energy – appointment

A communications advisor at Shell has been named as the new CEO of Aberdeen Renewable Energy Group (AREG).

David Rodger, who spent nine years with the oil giant, will take on the top job on October 1 in a new role for the supply chain organisation, currently led by chair Jean Morrison.

Rodger previously spent four years with AREG as communications manager before joining Vattenfall in 2009, where he supported development of the Clashindarroch onshore wind farm near Huntly, and the Aberdeen Bay Wind Farm, of which AREG was a driving partner.

He said: “Despite leaving more than a decade ago, I’ve continued to be heavily involved through advisory groups and supported the organisation at every opportunity.

“There has been enormous change in that time but we’re now entering another exciting phase for renewable energy in Scotland, and I can’t wait to be part of that with AREG as we grow the organisation to champion both the production and use of low carbon energy – right across industries, communities and homes.”

AREG is a non-profit organisation with more than 190 members, first set up in 2001 before being formally established two years later, aiming to build up north-east Scotland as a ‘world-leading centre of excellence’ for renewables.
