The Columbus Chapter of the IEEE Power and Energy Society is dedicated to serving the community and supporting our societal scope set forth by the IEEE Power and Energy Society.


The IEEE Power and Energy Society has described the Scope of our society as follows:


The scope of the Society embraces planning, research, development, design, application, construction, installation and operation of apparatus, equipment, structures, materials and systems for the safe, reliable and economic generation, transmission, distribution, conversion, measurement and control of electric energy. It includes the developing of engineering standards, the providing of information and instruction to the public and to legislators, as well as technical scientific, literary, educational and other activities that contribute to the electric power discipline or utilize the techniques or products within this discipline.

Adam Rousselle is the president and founder of UMRC, a utility focused risk management services company. Prior to founding URMC in 2005, he spent over 15 years working internationally in the sawmill, logging, and related industries.

Early in his career, Rousselle partnered with NASA experts and academics to develop remote sensing technologies to identify and inventory timber and forests. That work resulted in the founding of Falcon Informatics, a leader in forest information services and solutions for owners, investors, and insurers of forestland around the globe.

He sold Falcom Informatics in December 2005, by which point the company had anlayzed more than 4.5 million acres of forest in North and South America, Indonesia, Finland and Brazil for clients such as Fort Benning, Boise, UPM Kymmene, The Bureau of Land Management, Forest Capital Partners, Forest Systems, Fort AP Hill, and others.

Rousselle founded URMC in 2005 to focus exclusively on serving the utility industry. URMC currently serves some of the largest utilities in North America and is partnered with leading software and engineering firms focused on the utilities industry.
