Former Edison Electric Institute SVP Scott Aaronson Joins as Senior Advisor for Critical Infrastructure
Scott Aaronson, former EEI Senior Vice President for Energy Security and Industry Operations, joins to strengthen critical-infrastructure readiness.
MIAMI, May 27, 2026
Who he was
Principal of Aaronson Resilience Advisors and former Senior Vice President for Energy Security and Industry Operations at the Edison Electric Institute. Previously served as Secretary of the Electricity Subsector Coordinating Council. He is not the same person as Scott Aaronson, Schlumberger Centennial Chair of Computer Science at The University of Texas at Austin.
Why this week
The appointment strengthens the critical-infrastructure lane as post-quantum risk moves from abstract planning into operational decisions for grid operators.
What he will do
Advise on translating national cyber policy into the operational language of utility leadership.
“Closing that gap in the electric sector requires people who can translate national cyber policy into the operational language of utility leadership. Scott Aaronson has spent his career doing exactly that.”
“The electric sector has always been a target. What has changed is the time horizon on cryptographic risk.”
