Sixty-six public power utilities, including three Iowa utilities have
earned a Smart Energy Provider designation from the American Public
Power Association for demonstrating commitment to and proficiency in
energy efficiency, distributed energy resources, and environmental
initiatives that support the goal of providing safe, reliable, low-cost,
and sustainable electric service. Kris Sellstrom, Energy and
Gas Resources Manager at Jamestown Board of Public Utilities in
Jamestown, New York, and chair of APPA’s Energy Innovation Committee,
presented the designations on November 13 in San Antonio, Texas during
APPA’s annual Customer Connections Conference. This year, 66
utilities earned the designation, and in total, more than 90 public
power utilities hold the SEP designation. In Iowa SEP designation goes
to Cedar Falls Utilities, City of Ames Electric Services, and Muscatine
Power and Water. The SEP designation, which lasts for two years
(December 1, 2023 to November 30, 2025), recognizes public power
utilities for demonstrating leading practices in four key disciplines:
smart energy information; energy efficiency and distributed energy
resources programs; environmental and sustainability programs and
initiatives; and communication, education, and customer experience. This is the fifth year APPA has offered the SEP designation. The full list of SEP designees is available on APPA’s SEP webpage.
