Evergy
David Campbell is President, CEO and Chair of Evergy. He also is First Vice Chair of the Edison Electric Institute.
Evergy is a utility company with a diverse energy mix that serves some 1.7 million customers across Kansas and Missouri. Being in the Heartland comes with geographic advantages that allow for that diverse energy supply, which includes lots of wind, and natural gas production.
The company also benefits from nuclear power, and Evergy’s Wolf Creek Nuclear Generating Station recently celebrated forty years of providing reliable energy to the region. Wolf Creek will continue operations for at least two more decades.
The leader responsible for keeping an eye on that energy mix and lots more is Evergy CEO David Campbell. He joined Evergy in January 2021 as President and CEO and was appointed Chair in May 2024. He also is First Vice Chair of the Edison Electric Institute.
