DALLAS, Nov. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- D CEO Magazine has named Tri Global Energy Chairman and CEO John Billingsley to its newly announced Dallas 500 list – the annual list of the most powerful business leaders in Dallas/Fort Worth. This is the first year Billingsley has been included in the list. In the 2022 list, Tri Global Energy represents the only company with an exclusive focus on renewable energy.
The list – now in its seventh year – features the region's most influential leaders in more than 50 different industry categories, such as: leading industries (multiple categories such as aerospace/aviation, retail/ecommerce and manufacturing/consumer goods); real estate; professional services; technology; healthcare; arts, sports, leisure; education and non-profits.
"It's truly a sign of the times," said Billingsley. "Texas has always been America's energy leader, but now the state – especially North Texas – is helping forge our path forward toward clean, renewable power for the future."
"The 2022 edition showcases the unique energy of these North Texas leaders," said Gillea Allison, president of D Magazine Partners and publisher of D CEO. "There is no other region in the country with the breadth of talent, passion, and commitment as Dallas-Fort Worth," Allison said. "I am particularly excited by their commitment to making Dallas an even better place to work, live, and grow a business."
