TALLAHASSEE – Florida Department of Environmental
Protection (DEP) Secretary Colleen M. Castille announced
the appointment of Allan Guyet as DEP’s Director of the
Florida Energy Office. Guyet will begin his new position
on December 5, 2005.
“Allan’s experience and management will bring new
insight and leadership to the state’s energy
initiatives,” said DEP Secretary Castille. “His
expertise will support our efforts to strengthen and
diversify Florida’s energy generation and fuel supply.”
Currently, Guyet serves as Chief of Staff at the
Department of Juvenile Justice, where he develops and
implements state policy. Previously, he served as the
Deputy Policy Director for Legislative Affairs for
Governor Jeb Bush and Director of the Federal Office of
Connecticut Governor John G. Rowland.

energy future,” Guyet said. “I look forward to this new
challenge, and working to plan and build the State’s
energy future.”
The Florida Energy Office is the state’s primary
center for energy policy under Governor Bush. In
addition to developing and implementing Florida’s energy
policy, the Energy Office coordinates all federal energy
programs delegated to the state, including energy
supply, demand, conservation and allocation. On December

symposium that will help guide Florida’s future energy
strategy.
