Speaker Bio: Chandra Farley; Chief Sustainability Officer, City of Atlanta 

Chandra Farley serves as Chief Sustainability Officer for the City of Atlanta and leads the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability and Resilience. In this role, she sets direction for the City’s sustainability and resilience goals and leads the interdepartmental and community-wide engagement necessary to manage the increasing effects of climate change on Atlanta’s natural and built infrastructure through an environmental justice lens.  Chandra led development of Climate Resilient ATL, the City’s first comprehensive climate resilience action plan. Climate Resilient ATL establishes the community-wide and municipal-led actions necessary to increase clean energy, reduce emissions, expand access to local food, address energy burden, and advance sustainable transportation. Informed by the lived experiences of Atlanta’s diverse communities, this comprehensive action plan elevates culturally shaped approaches to guide execution. 


Prior to joining the City, Chandra founded ReSolve Consulting, an energy justice consulting firm and launched the “Good Energy Project,” a social space envisioned to connect the transformational power of Black Women to the clean energy economy.

Chandra is a well-known leader in sustainability and energy, and her work has been recognized with multiple awards. Her advocacy extends to Congress, where she has twice testified to the importance of a justice-centered climate action agenda. She has also held multiple local and national board service roles. In 2022, Chandra completed a historic run for the Georgia Public Service Commission. 

AEE is looking for event sponsors at a $300 and $600 level.  Sponsors will have their logos displayed on future correspondence, recognized during the event, and allowed to set up a small display in the room.  At $300, a sponsor will receive a complimentary ticket to the dinner, at $600, the sponsor will receive 2 complimentary tickets.
