Biography

Scott Sitzer has been with EIA and its predecessor agency, the Federal Energy Administration, since 1976, and has experience in modeling, analysis, and data interpretation of most of the major components of energy supply and demand.

He served in each of EIA’s major Program Offices before assuming his current position. From January 1993 to May 2003, he was a Division Director in the Office of Integrated Analysis and Forecasting (OIAF), responsible for analysis and forecasting of coal, electricity, nuclear, and renewable energy markets. From July 2001 through February 2003, Scott was also acting Director of that Office, responsible for preparation of EIA’s major long-term forecasting publications, the Annual Energy Outlook and International Energy Outlook.

From July 1988 to October 1991, he was Chief of the Coal Data Analysis and Forecasting Branch of the Office of Coal, Nuclear, Electric and Alternate Fuels, subsequently becoming Chief of the Coal, Uranium, and Renewable Fuels Analysis Branch of OIAF.

Prior to his coming to the energy area, he worked for over five years at the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Scott holds a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of New Mexico, and a master's degree in economics from George Washington University.
