About George Wenzel

I’m a systems-oriented engineer and strategist with nine years of experience in the energy sector, currently pursuing the System Design and Management (SDM) program at MIT. My career has focused on bridging technical modeling, business strategy, and sustainability to accelerate the energy transition.Before MIT, I spent six years at ENGIE, leading projects at the intersection of market analytics, renewable integration, and portfolio optimization. I developed tools and models that helped guide investment and operational decisions across power generation assets and trading portfolios.At MIT, I’m expanding that foundation through research and coursework in systems thinking, data-driven decision-making, and product innovation, with the goal of shaping scalable solutions for decarbonization and energy systems transformation.I’m particularly interested in roles that connect technology, business, and sustainability — from product management in clean energy tech to strategic roles in global energy companies.
