Michael Lewis Biography

Michael Lewis is an energy executive with more than three decades of experience in the sector, recognized for his expertise in renewable energy, decarbonization, and the low-carbon transition. Lewis joined Powergen in 1993, initially working in technical and environmental roles before moving into corporate strategy and development. Following E.ON's acquisition of Powergen, he relocated to E.ON's headquarters in Düsseldorf as vice president of corporate development. Lewis has consistently approached responsibility as a core business issue rather than a corporate social responsibility add-on, a philosophy that has shaped his career in energy leadership.

E.ON invested €12 billion in its renewables business, where Lewis became the first employee. He was appointed managing director for Europe on the board of E.ON Climate and Renewables GmbH, later becoming CEO responsible for global wind power development, construction, and operations. In this role, Lewis led E.ON's international expansion into offshore wind energy. Climate change and decarbonization have been central themes throughout his career, with a focus on addressing the ongoing impacts and challenges of climate change.

Lewis was appointed CEO of E.ON UK, where he led the company's transformation into a supplier of zero-carbon energy solutions. He oversaw E.ON's UK retail business, one of the largest energy firms in the country, serving more than five million customers. During his tenure, Lewis chaired the Energy & Utilities Skills Partnership, a program dedicated to workforce development in the energy industry to support net zero carbon targets. He has been a public voice on energy policy, speaking at industry forums such as the edie Sustainability Leaders Forum and events at London Business School, and engaging with media on topics including energy innovation and the United Kingdom's path to net zero.

The supervisory board of Uniper SE, a German energy company, announced the appointment of Lewis as chief executive officer following his tenure at E.ON UK. He serves as CEO, chief sustainability officer, and labor director of Uniper SE, and is also non-executive director of United Utilities Group plc. Drawing on extensive experience in the sector—from building E.ON's offshore wind business to guiding Uniper through recovery after the gas crisis—Lewis has demonstrated the ability to deliver the energy transition through cost discipline, system thinking, and a focus on security of supply.

Lewis holds a BEng (Hons) in Engineering Technology, an MSc in Pollution and Environmental Control, and an MA in Environmental Law. He is a chartered engineer and a fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, as well as a chartered water and environment manager and a member of the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management. He also studied strategy implementation and change at Harvard Business School. Lewis’s combination of technical credentials, strategic vision, and leadership across major European energy organizations positions him as an authoritative voice on the future of energy, renewable energy, and sustainable business practices.
