CARDINAL ROSE
STRATEGIC ADVISORY & PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
Cardinal Rose partners with investors, developers, and the communities that host them to navigate the complex challenges of critical infrastructure development.
Drawing on his senior role at the White House, his leadership of one of the largest power grids in the world and his management of one of the largest water infrastructure banks in the world, Peter Lake advises companies and investors on navigating the operational, financial, regulatory, and policy complexities that shape the development of critical infrastructure.
“Peter has been a driving force behind our defining power initiatives”
U.S. Secretary of the Interior and Chairman of the National Energy Dominance Council Doug Burgum
“ Peter Lake stepped up during a critical time in our state…with Lake at the helm of the [power grid], we have ensured that no Texan has lost power due to the state grid.”
“Peter’s extensive electric grid experience, intelligence, and passion…has been critical to advancing President Trump’s energy agenda.”
U. S. Secretary of Energy and Vice Chairman of the National Energy Dominance Council Chris Wright
Lake is a nationally recognized energy and infrastructure leader who brings a rare combination of power and water expertise and experience to the era of AI infrastructure expansion. He is the only executive in America to have simultaneously held both operating and regulatory authority over a major U.S. power grid and to have led one of the world’s largest water infrastructure planning and financing institutions. Tasked with stabilizing the Texas power grid after Winter Storm Uri – the most catastrophic power grid failure in U.S. history – he implemented once-in-a-generation reforms before being called to Washington as the first senior White House official ever designated to manage national power grid policy. His understanding of the operational, financial, regulatory, and political systems that will define the next decade of American infrastructure is unparalleled.
