Welcome Steven Turner, New Expert in the Transmission Professionals Community - [an Energy Central Power Perspectives™ Expert Interview]
Originally posted here as a part of the ongoing Energy Central Power Perspectives written interview series I run, interviewing top utility industry experts for the Energy Central Community.
Grid modernization has been top of mind for stakeholders from utilities to customers to even state and federal leaders looking to the future of energy. Transmission infrastructure is the final stage of carrying power from generation to customer, but with the advent of greater levels of distributed generation and pro-sumers, the role of transmission has been in more of a stage of change than ever before.
As Energy Central’s community seeks to stay on top of the trends in technologies, programs, regulations, and more in the world of transmission, the Network of Experts within our Transmission Professional Group are more needed than ever before. We’re always looking to add insightful voices and thought leaders to this esteemed group who will share their experiences and expertise with the community, and today I’m happy to introduce a new member of this circle: Steven Turner, Senior Engineer at Arizona Public Service. Steven has spent his career in various roles building up the transmission infrastructure, so he will provide a key perspective on the evolution taking place today.
To welcome Steven to the Network of Experts, we wanted to introduce him to the community with an iteration of our Energy Central Power Perspective ‘Welcome New Expert Interview Series.’
Enjoy!
