Doug Kim is director of Advanced Technology in theTransmission & Distribution Business Unit of Southern California Edison.  Advanced Technology is SCE’s research, development and demonstration organization responsible for Smart Grid development, which includes advanced grid technologies, electric transportation, energy storage, and integration of energy smart consumer products.

Before assuming his current position, Mr. Kim was responsible for the Plug-In Electric Vehicle (PEV) Readiness Program for Southern California Edison. The PEV Readiness Program was created to ensure that SCE would be prepared to support customer adoption of plug-in electric vehicles being introduced in the market by many of the major automakers.

Prior to his PEV responsibilities, Mr. Kim was General Manager of Edison Carrier Solutions, a business unit of SCE that provides large capacity fiber optics-based broadband services to all types of telecommunications companies such as wireless carriers, large and small local and long distance telephone companies, alternative telecommunications service providers, cable television companies and internet access companies.

Previously, Mr. Kim worked as a senior manager in various SCE organizations, with primary responsibilities in assessing new business opportunities and developing strategies and detailed business plans. He joined Edison International (EIX), the parent company of SCE in 1996, working on corporate strategic planning and new business development.  He also provided internal consulting to many of EIX’s operating units.

Mr. Kim received a bachelor of science degree in engineering from Harvey Mudd College in Claremont and a master of business administration degree from UCLA.
