Alicja Chilińska-Zawadzka - manager with many years of experience in the preparation and implementation of investments in the area of renewable energy sources. General director for 13 years, and since 2024. President of the Management Board of EDF Renewables Poland. Graduate of the European University Viadrina in Frankfurt/O.

She is actively working for a fair energy transition in Poland. As she herself says, human beings should always be at the center of change. That's why she initiated the “Wind - Mine of Opportunity” program, which enables miners to be re-trained as wind turbine technicians, giving them the chance to work in the zero-carbon industry of the future.

She is also committed to supporting the development of the Lubuskie region. In 2024, she became chairman of the board of the Go Green cluster, whose founder is the Western Chamber of Industry and Commerce. The cluster's activities focus on networking in the field of green technologies.
