George W Bausewine

George W. Bausewine spent his career as a senior executive at Cleco, an investor-owned electric utility serving central and south-central Louisiana. He joined the company's ranks and accumulated roughly 24 years of experience across Cleco Corporation and its utility subsidiary, Cleco Power. Over that tenure he held a series of regulatory- and strategy-focused leadership roles, including Vice President of Regulatory and Rates and Vice President of Strategic and Regulatory Affairs, and he served as Senior Vice President of Corporate Services beginning in May 2005.

On August 7, 2010, Bausewine was named President and Chief Operating Officer of Cleco Power, the operating utility subsidiary. He held that top operating role until his retirement, which the company first signaled for February 2012 and then confirmed as effective March 1, 2012. His departure was part of a broader senior-management restructuring at Cleco, in which executives such as Keith Crump (senior vice president of commercial operations) and Bill Fontenot (senior vice president of utility operations) took on expanded responsibilities.

Bausewine holds a Bachelor of Business Administration degree from Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida, and a Master of Business Administration from Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, Texas. His professional background centered on utility regulation, ratemaking, and corporate strategy rather than finance or private investment.
