Piedmont Municipal Power Agency helps its member utilities with economic development efforts by providing direct monetary contributions on an annual basis to members that can be spent in support of local economic development efforts, notes Joel Ledbetter, the new general manager for PMPA, in the latest Public Power Now podcast. Moreover, PMPA not only offers a reliable and competitively priced source of electricity, it also offers a power supply that is “one hundred percent green, carbon free and clean,” which is a key benefit when it comes to economic development these days, he said.
