Vignettes of Recent Work
Interviewing & Engaging
“I want to take a moment to recognize an invaluable member of the D CEO team. For more than a decade, we have been fortunate to have had Jennifer Warren lead our energy coverage. Jennifer is known not just regionally or nationally but globally for her expertise, which spans energy trends, and their economic and geopolitical implications, and resource sustainability issues.
The energy CEOs we feature love talking with Jennifer because she knows their business—like no other. In recent years, Jennifer has written D CEO features on Scott Sheffield, Trevor Rees Jones, and George Yates. And this year, she wrote a must-read profile of Kelcy Warren. We’re grateful to her and proud to collaborate with her. Here’s more from Jennifer.”

Body of work from D CEO magazine, 2007-present
Since the inception of D CEO, numerous articles related to Dallas-based energy firms, infrastructure giant Fluor, and leaders and trendsetters have been written.
BOOK CHAPTER: “Targeting the Future: Smarter, Cleaner Infrastructure Development Choices” | Climate Change, November 2012
China and India, with their high economic growth trajectories, offer the planet a significant opportunity to reduce carbon emissions provided they invest in climate-smart infrastructure. The globe is also becoming increasingly water stressed. Understanding the energy-water-climate nexus is critical to achieving sustainable development. View chapter
Cover story: “Paving the Path for India's Growth” | Far Eastern Economic Review, March 2008, with co-author Dr. Andrew Chen, distinguished professor of finance
For India's rapid growth to continue, investment in infrastructure would need to double, from 5% of GDP to an estimated 9% by 2012 -- or $500 billion. Utilizing global capital markets and the private sector is the way forward for greater efficiency, transparency, and proper incentives. Incumbent approaches in financing infrastructure have shortcomings that encourage waste, inefficiency, and corruption. India is perfectly poised to leverage a new market-based approach for sustainable infrastructure development to the benefit of its economy, the Indian public, and global investors.
