Greenville Utilities Honored with National Award for Reliable Electric Operation
Greenville Utilities is one of 48 of the nation’s more than 2,000 public power utilities to earn Reliable Public Power ProviderTM (RP3) recognition from the American Public Power Association (APPA). This designation honors utilities for providing customers with the highest degree of reliable and safe electric service. The award was presented on April 16, during the association’s annual Engineering & Operations Technical Conference, held in Atlanta.
“We are committed to providing reliable electric service, and it's an honor to be recognized as a national RP3 designee,” said Ron Elks, GUC’s General Manager/CEO. “We look forward to continuing to find ways to improve our operations and service to the community.”
The RP3 designation recognizes public power utilities that demonstrate proficiency in four key disciplines: reliability, safety, training and system improvement. Criteria within each category are
based on sound business practices and represent a utility-wide commitment to safe and reliable delivery of electricity.
“The RP3 designation represents a concerted effort on the utility’s behalf to exemplify the highest standards of utility operations,” said Paul Allen, Vice President, engineering at Nashville, Tenn., Electric Service and chair of APPA’s RP3 Review Panel, “Greenville Utilities and the community should be very proud of this achievement.”
