Carol Browner is the director of the White House Office of Energy and Climate Change Policy. Or, at least, she was. Yesterday White House officials announced that the country’s top green energy administrator would be leaving her post.
“Carol is confident that the mission of her office will remain critical to the president, and she is pleased with what will be in the [State of the Union address] and in the budget [next month] on clean energy,” a White House representative told Politico. “The president’s commitment to these issues will of course continue, but any transition of the office will be announced soon.”
There’s currently no word on who will replace Browner or when the position might be filled.
Browner was the first ever person to hold the postion of director of the White House Office of Energy and Climate Change Policy, a role she began in January 2009. Prior to that, she spent eight years as the director of the Environmental Protection Agency. She hasn’t announced where she’ll be going next.
