Note from the editor To say 2016 has been eventful is a mild understatement. In the power sector, we’ve seen new regulations and technologies spur change throughout the nation.
What will 2017 look like? We want to hear from you. In early January, we plan to bring back our popular predictions series and would like you to participate.
If you’ve got a read on what the next year holds for the power sector, please send 400 words or less to Utility.Dive.Editors@industrydive.com by Dec. 30. Please put "Utility Dive predictions” in the subject line.
Before you submit, please make sure you have permission from your manager or communications team. We’ll select the best submissions to run next month.
