Sally Talberg

For Sally Talberg, solving complex energy challenges has been more than a job; it’s a lifelong passion. From an early internship at the Michigan United Conservation Clubs to leading a regulatory agency and shaping energy policy, she has spent her career making clean energy more accessible and affordable.

At PSC, Sally will bring this passion full circle by returning to an organization she helped build and guide in its early days—Michigan Saves, the nation’s first nonprofit green bank. As incoming president and CEO of Michigan Saves, she will lead the charge in scaling clean energy financing, expanding equitable access to energy solutions, and strengthening partnerships across the state. She will play a key role in securing funding, driving strategic growth, and ensuring all Michiganders, regardless of income or background, can benefit from energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions.

With more than 25 years of experience in energy policy and regulation, Sally previously served as chair for the Michigan Public Service Commission, guiding the state through major energy transformations. She also founded a consulting firm focused on energy policy and regulatory strategy, advising clients across the country. In addition to her incoming leadership position with Michigan Saves, Sally serves on the New York Independent System Operator Board, which administers electricity markets and operates the electric grid in New York.
