Len Levine, Principal Consultant

Len Levine has over 30 years experience in energy analysis, regulatory strategy, and government relations.

He has a track record of producing excellent performance and results.

Having worked as a corporate government relations executive as well as in a variety of government policy and regulatory positions, Len brings a unique combination of experience in business and government. He has a long history of achievement in finding solutions to complex business problems where government policy or regulation is a factor. Clients say that one of his major strengths is development of strategies to accomplish an objective and that his value comes from understanding the government-regulatory model and the business requirements of all the different players.

He has also used these talents for the good of the community also, serving two terms as an elected Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner in Washington, DC. During that time, overburdened underground utilities needed urgently to be upgraded in the Georgetown Historic District. Using his leadership position as an ANC Commissioner, he assembled a Community Relations Team (CRT) so that local residents and businesses could work with the utilities and the DC Government during the four-year long, $40 million Georgetown Project. The CRT was a key part of the successful completion of the project and Len's leadership was recognized personally by the Mayor. Also received recognition from the Georgetown Business Association, the Citizens Association of Georgetown, and the Office of People's Counsel of the District of Columbia.

Before becoming a consultant on government relations and regulatory strategy in 1999, Mr. Levine was Vice President, U.S. Government Relations for TransCanada PipeLines, where he was responsible for the company's U.S. government relations activities. He designed strategies and led teams that were successful in winning government approvals for major natural gas and crude oil pipeline projects in the U.S. Prior to his TransCanada experience, he had a 17 year career with the U.S. government, where he was a Department of State Foreign Service Officer and an analyst and manager with the Department of Energy.
