Marieke Abbink new director New Energy Coalition

Marieke Abbink-Pellenbarg (48) will join New Energy Coalition as of February 1. She succeeds Gertjan Lankhorst as general manager. Marieke is currently the managing director of RBO Foundation, an organization that deals with issues at the intersection of education and the labor market.

Marieke Abbink-Pellenbarg is married, has two daughters, and lives with her family in the town of Grijpskerk. In her free time, she is a member of the Supervisory Board of Huis voor de Sport in Groningen and a member of the national program council of the NCP NLQF.

Lankhorst will introduce Abbink-Pellenbarg to the field, and she will take over from him on April 1st. Abbink will fill the position full-time.

New Energy Coalition wants to connect the knowledge and experience of all parties involved in the energy transition. I'm pleased that we've found a director who can play this connecting role like no other.

- Max van den Berg, Chairman of the Supervisory Board
