Peter Meisen was born in San Diego, California, and is a graduate (1976) of the University of California, San Diego with an Applied Mechanics and Engineering Sciences degree. In 1983, he co-founded SHARE (Self Help and Resource Exchange), North America's largest private food distribution program. Meisen founded Global Energy Network Institute, GENI, geni.org in 1989, to conduct research and to educate world leaders to the strategy of linking renewable energy resources around the world. He is an internationally recognized speaker on the global issues of renewable energy, transmission and distribution of electricity, quality of life and its relationship to electricity, the environment and sustainable development.

Meisen is an active member of the IEEE and in the 90s chaired panels on the feasibility of high voltage, long distance transmission and also tapping remote renewables, both of which were featured in the IEEE Power Engineering Review. He also participates regularly either with an exhibit or as a presenter at ACORE, the World Energy Conference, ISDE, CERES, and Rotary International.

In 2005, Meisen was a co-creator in partnership with KLD kld.com, of the Global Climate 100 (GC100) - a sustainable index for socially responsible investing.
