SPP Moves Forward to Recovery Phase

 

Southwest Power Pool is in charge of the flow of electricity in 14 different states including areas in southeast Kansas and northeast Oklahoma.

 

The power company had to temporarily shut off electricity to some businesses and residencies amid last week's winter storm. SPP is now moving on from the storm and looking to recover.

 

President and Chief Executive Officer of SPP Barbara Sugg said in a statement, "SPP, like the rest of our industry, is now shifting from a posture of emergency response to one of recovery and preparation for the next challenge on the horizon."

 

Locally, Coffeyville Municipal Light & Power will have a meeting at an undetermined time on how they can learn from last week's events and how they will do things differently if a disaster were to ever hit again.
