Wake Forest Power Update

During the 2024 Downtown Property Owners' Luncheon, Electric Utility Director Chris Terrell offered an update on Wake Forest Power activities and initiatives – with a particular emphasis on downtown Wake Forest.

Among the topics he addressed in his eight-minute presentation were the power outages that affected downtown in 2023, including the number one cause – animals, the new outage management system coming soon, and the utility’s efforts to convert existing overhead lines to underground.
