PUF's Where's Energy

Utility Industry Masked

Send in your selfie for September's PUF.

These are indeed masked times. Many of us have experimented with different mask looks, some stylish, and some decidedly not.

As part of Public Utilities Fortnightly's "coverage" of utilities and utility regulation, September's issue of PUF shall include a special feature, Utility Industry Masked.

Simply send in your selfie, with you wearing a mask. We hope to show some of you at utilities, utility commissions, other government agencies, associations, vendors and professional firms chipping in to conquer this coronavirus crisis.

Happy Birthday, David Lilienthal (July 8)

Commissioner David Lilienthal, whose birthday is July 8, wrote a PUF article while at the Wisconsin Public Service Commission.

He later became one of the nation's most influential utility regulators, then a key leader of President Franklin Roosevelt's Administration on energy matters, then the chairman of the Tennessee Valley Authority - he was really the driving force in TVA's creation — and then the first chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission.
