NEW YORK, 09/17/2026 – Capital is arriving in energy and infrastructure faster than the leadership able to deploy it. Parity, the gender equality network founded within global recruitment firm Levin, today named 100 senior women running programs across the sector in its 100 Women in Energy & Infrastructure Tech 2026 report, published in partnership with LSEG.
The list spans data center infrastructure, energy storage and battery technology, grid management, renewable energy, nuclear and next-generation energy, energy trading and power markets, smart buildings and construction.
It is one of three reports published together, alongside FinTech and HealthTech, covering 300 women in total.
The 2025 cohort indicates how quickly this tier of the market moves. Of the 300 women featured across last year’s reports, 42% have since been promoted internally or moved into a bigger role at a new company. Eighteen have stepped into the C-suite, most from VP or SVP positions, and six have founded their own companies.
“When we founded Parity, the aim was simple: make sure the women doing brilliant work across tech actually get seen for it,” said Kesi Johnson, Founder & Network Lead at Parity. “What’s happened since has gone well beyond a list. The women we feature are moving into leadership, building companies and backing each other along the way, and that’s the whole point.”
The list was built from nominations by colleagues and peers, alongside Parity’s own research. Honorees are recognized as founders, leaders, builders and connectors.
They will be celebrated at an in-person event hosted at LSEG’s New York offices on Wednesday, October 28, 2026.
The full 2026 report is available on the Storm4 website.
