About the Energy Chamber:

The Energy Chamber of Trinidad and Tobago, ECTT (formerly The South Trinidad Chamber of Industry and Commerce, STCIC) is the representative organization for the Trinidad & Tobago energy and related sectors.  We are based in the City of San Fernando, a member of the World Energy City Partnership and the traditional hub of the energy and heavy industrial sectors.  Membership of the Energy Chamber is, however, drawn from across the country and beyond.   Founded in 1956, the Energy Chamber is an independent a-political organization governed by a Council elected annually from amongst the membership.   The Energy Chamber has a strong tradition of vigorously and effectively representing our members’ interests and for significantly contributing to national development. 

Governance:

The Energy Chamber is governed by a sixteen member Council, made up of fifteen volunteers elected from amongst the membership of the Chamber at an Annual General Meeting and the Chief Executive Officer (a full-time employee of the Chamber).  There is an Executive Committee of the Council which comprises a President, three Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer and CEO.  All these positions, with the exception of the CEO, are elected by the general membership for one year terms at the AGM.  The other nine Council members are elected for a three year term, with three of the nine members elected at each AGM. 

The day-to-day running of the Energy Chamber is the responsibility of an Executive Office, managed by the CEO.

Chamber members, the Council and the Executive Office are bound by the by-laws of the Energy Chamber.
