Note from the editor The U.S. power sector is a massive industry, and 2016 has seen no shortage of upheavals to the utility business model, regulation and energy markets.
While we attempt to cover these headlines each day, we wanted to take a step back at the end of the year to reflect on the movers and shakers behind each newsletter issue.
After months of consultations with readers and industry experts, we are pleased to introduce the 2016 Dive Awards. Many of you won't be surprised to see New York's Reforming the Energy Vision and the Clean Power Plan make an appearance, but there are also some surprises in store.
We couldn't have tackled this effort without your insight and participation. As always, send your comments, tips and quips at the links below. Thank you for reading Utility Dive.
