Duane has been at the forefront of reliability planning and figuring out how to keep the lights on, no matter what. Duane also breaks down resource adequacy and how recent major storms have completely changed the model.  In addition to reliability, cooperatives like Tri-State have to balance cost in order to keep power affordable for our neighbors at the end of the line. Here, Duane dives into how powering communities is personal to him and his team.
