Ruben Flores-Marzan, AICP, PhD Candidate in Regional Planning, is the first to hold a new position at ISO-NE that will serve as a critical bridge between the RTO and environmental justice (EJ) communities. Flores-Marzan, who has extensive experience as an urban planner, will work to bring new perspectives to ISO-NE's stakeholder processes by engaging groups that have been historically absent from energy policy and planning discussions.
