🔌At the American Public Power Association's 2025 CEO & Utility Managers Roundtable, Benton PUD GM Rick Dunn joined 130 public power leaders nationwide to talk Resource Adequacy and Reliability.

His message emphasized the need for “climate and energy realism”. The overbuild of land- and mineral-intensive wind and solar power can't be done fast enough while retiring reliable coal and gas power is happening prematurely. The result?! Rising blackout risks.

📊 Rick’s data-driven presentation tackled development friction, energy policy, and the real-world tradeoffs of a so-called “clean energy transition”.
