Serving our 1.2 million customers has been an honor. After a decade, I’m stepping down as LIPA’s CEO at the end of May. Our team’s accomplishments include a record $6.4 billion investment in the electric grid, a 37% reduction in power outages, four credit rating upgrades, a 25% reduction in LIPA’s leverage, the nation’s first utility-scale offshore wind farm, a plan to reduce carbon emissions 70% by 2030, $2+ billion of federal grants, a service provider contract with greater accountability for results, and top 10% employee engagement scores. The LIPA team’s commitment is to be the electric utility our customers deserve. Read all about it... publicpower.org/periodical/a…

Discussed the practical implications of an energy transition with @LPPCorg earlier today. An energy transition must be done responsibly, prioritizing reliability and affordability, but there can be wins for both sides of the pendulum.

Thank you to all of our speakers, panelists and attendees for joining us at today’s event - “Power Shift: Meeting America’s Power Needs.” We kicked off the morning with remarks from @LPPCPresident John Di Stasio, followed by an insightful discussion on #gridreliability and the energy transition.
We are grateful to @SenKevinCramer (R-ND) for joining us as our headline speaker, who shared his thoughts on how vital it will be to ensure reliability and affordability as #cleanenergy resources continue to expand across the country.
We also had a fantastic panel discussion with @EnergyFalcone, CEO of LIPA; Javier Fernandez, CEO of @OPPDCares; Dr. Nikki Roy, Energy Policy Advisor to Rep. Sean Casten (D-IL); and Mark Menezes, President and CEO of @USEnergyAssn. Moderated by @SRPconnect's @renee_eastman, the conversation touched on several factors that impact electric reliability, from extreme weather to transmission and permitting reform.

Having worked with Justin Driscoll along with the 27 other CEOs of the Large Public Power Council, I endorse Justin's confirmation as the CEO of NYPA. He has proven himself a smart, capable and steady leader on behalf of the consumers of NYPA and the state of New York.
