First 100 days

8 foundational priorities, each with a start and finish date, ending in a published progress review on day 100.

The 100-day pledge

Within my first 100 days, I will complete the national membership audit, inaugurate the Advocacy and State Market Committees, open the bankable project pipeline intake, and publish a verified progress review.

The 8 priorities

  1. 1

    Inaugurate core governance taskforces

    Days 1–15

    Inaugurate the Advocacy and Regulatory Affairs Committee and the Decentralised Electricity Market Working Group. Finalise terms of reference, appoint committee leadership and set monthly reporting to the Governing Board.

  2. 2

    Membership audit & database cleanse

    Days 15–35

    Verify the active membership registry, reconcile outstanding dues, audit current tiers (startups, SMEs, large developers) and switch on automated digital invoicing and renewal reminders.

  3. 3

    Commission the digital portal & directory

    Days 20–50

    Contract an agency to rebuild the REAN portal: a searchable member directory, resource hub, member login and lead generation for members.

  4. 4

    National industry data & impact survey

    Days 30–65

    Survey all active members to aggregate installed solar and storage capacity (MW), investment, local jobs and mini-grid connections, to ground REAN’s advocacy papers in data.

  5. 5

    Open state regulatory dialogues

    Days 45–75

    Send formal representation letters and hold introductory consultations with pioneer State Electricity Regulatory Commissions to secure REAN’s role as a consultative stakeholder.

  6. 6

    Open bankable project intake

    Days 50–85

    Launch an intake portal for shovel-ready projects seeking debt, equity or technical advisory, building the deal-flow pipeline for the REAN Investment Forum.

  7. 7

    Approve the academic collaboration framework

    Days 60–90

    Ratify guidelines for REAN Student Chapters and sign pilot MoUs with two pioneer engineering universities for internships, research challenges and technical training.

  8. 8

    100-day executive progress review

    Day 100

    Present verified membership records, baseline survey findings, committee agendas and the Year 1 timetable to the Governing Board and General Assembly.

Read it. Question it. Pass it on.

Most members will see this plan because someone they trust shared it. If it’s worth a conversation, send it to a colleague.
