As part of Public Service Recognition Week, the 2021 Excellence in Government Award was given to 55 federal employees to honor their work that encourages innovation and excellence in government, reinforces pride in federal service and calls public attention to the range of services provided by federal employees.
Burgard currently works at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) as the supervisor of the Process Systems Engineering Research team. The team designs and improves existing and next generation power plants and integrated energy systems with the intent to minimize the costs and environmental impacts of the systems.
“The most rewarding part of receiving this award is that it helps to bring a small level of national recognition to the lab and our team,” Burgard said.
