What a great week! We started with a tour of @DominionEnergy’s Warren County power station and ended with a panel of CEOs from @NRECANews, @LPPCorg, @CEBAPower and @USEnergyAssn.
That's a wrap on #ExperiencePOWER 2026! Thank you to our speakers, sponsors & attendees. We'll see you next year — September 7–10, 2027 at the Omni Shoreham, Washington, DC. 🗓️

APPA joined @Edison_Electric, @NRECANews, and @LPPCorg in submitting comments to @FCC that advance a coordinated electric industry position on enabling scalable unmanned aircraft systems deployment while protecting critical infrastructure. Details: ow.ly/sYXv50Z9Y6t

As Chairman of the Energy and Water Development Appropriations Committee in the House, I was pleased to join @LPPCorg CEOs from all across the nation’s largest public power utilities here in Nashville.
Advanced nuclear and other firm generation technologies play a critical role in strengthening American energy reliability, affordability, security, and innovation.
I look forward to continuing to work with LPPC and public power leaders to advance reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy solutions for the more than 30 million customers they serve.

Always a pleasure speaking with @LlewellynKing2. Thank you for having me on White House Chronicle to discuss what is driving electricity cost pressures, and how public power utilities are working to protect existing customers while meeting growing demand and investing in the grid.
Here is a summary of this week's episode of "White House Chronicle" on PBS, SiriusXM Radio and other broadcast outlets:
Topic: The essentiality of electricity, and why its cost is rising
Summary: Tom Falcone, president of the Large Public Power Council, speaks with Host Llewellyn King about the essentiality of electricity, and what is causing rising electricity prices.

Great to visit @SanteeCooper and speak at its Senior Leadership Institute today. Santee Cooper powers more than 2 million homes and businesses across South Carolina and has played a leadership role in LPPC since helping found the organization in 1987.

Did you know? One of the largest floating solar arrays in the U.S. is located in South Orlando.☀️ Mark Andersen, OUC Emerging Technologies Project Manager, shares more facts about this unique 2 MW array. ⬇️ bit.ly/4hUPxmc #CommunityPowered #FLPublicPower

Celebrating 50 years of @MEAGPower today at the Mayors’ Summit and now equipped with nuclear socks for future advocacy in DC. 40% of LPPC members are exploring new nuclear and can learn from MEAG. Georgia continues its rapid growth and having completed Vogtle, MEAG is exploring the next generation to come online in 2032! #publicpower #nuclearpower

I interviewed Tom Falcone of the Large Public Power Council for The Bond Buyer's podcast! Listen to my lovely voice here (or wherever you get your podcasts)

Can’t say it better than @NRECAJim — public power @LPPCorg and electric co-ops @NRECANews agree on the importance of @fema and that the bipartisan Fixing Emergency Management for Americans Act will help ensure faster, fairer recovery for the communities we serve.
Half of all co-ops have needed @FEMA help since 2020—but red tape slows recovery. I joined @NRECA’s Along Those Lines podcast to talk about fixing that.

Today, CPS Energy has announced the closing of its acquisition of PROENERGY’s four natural gas power generation facilities with an aggregate electric capacity of approximately 1,632 megawatts (“MW”) generation portfolio located in Harris, Brazoria, and Galveston counties.
The addition of these assets supports San Antonio’s long-term energy needs and clean energy commitments, delivering reliability and cost efficiencies for CPS Energy customers, and represents a major step forward in CPS Energy’s community-led and board-approved power generation plan.

Great to be in Columbus for the @amppartners Annual Conference. On display is the outstanding support AMP delivers to its members and public power communities — one of the best! AMP is now updating its Integrated Resource Plan to meet the region’s future growth. A pleasure to spend time with AMP members and staff and to join @PublicPowerOrg’s Scott Corwin and @NERC_Official’s Jim Robb on today’s panel for a wide-ranging discussion of reliability, affordability and sustainability. Thanks to Jolene for the hat and cup!

LPPC member utilities are investing $140B over the next decade to meet unprecedented demand for electricity from AI and data centers. As @NewYorker cartoonist Paul Noth highlights, it’s important that those requesting new power pay for it. #EnergyPolicy

In Austin with @LCRA, who is investing $5.9 billion in the Texas grid over the next five years, including a new 765-kV project to strengthen reliability and support Texas’ rapid growth. Big thanks for the time and the mug!

Delighted to feature Tom Falcone from @LPPCorg at the NCEW25 Policymakers Symposium.
Falcone will share his perspective on advancing America through all-of-the-above energy.

In San Antonio with @CPSEnergy — powering the local economy and preparing for the AI + data center future. With 31% load growth from data centers projected over the next decade, CPS is building for what’s ahead. Big thanks for the time — and the hat!
LPPC retweeted
I spoke with @WSJ on the staggering scale of data center power requests. Much of it is real but building too much risks saddling customers with costs. Developers should sign long-term contracts so they bear the risk, not customers. #AI #datacenters wsj.com/business/energy-oil/…

⚡ Project Complete: Westmoreland Substation Upgrade 🔧
What does increased power reliability look like? Two new breakers, two power sources, and one stronger grid for Westmoreland. 💡
The installation was completed just two weeks ago—and this is how it all came together.
🎯 Improved service reliability
🔁 Dual-source redundancy
👷♀️ Crews working safely and efficiently

We've started work on the Johns Island-Queensboro transmission project to bring more resilient electric to the area, working closely to protect wildlife along the way.
The project should be done by the end of the year.
