Alabama Power Wins Prestigious AEIC Achievement Award

By Donna Cope

Alabama Power has one of the nation’s highest reliability rates in the electric-utility industry – 99.7 percent – one reason the company hits the top of JD Power satisfaction studies year after year.

That’s because the company and its employees have invested considerable time and resources to increase electric reliability through improved IDMS (Integrated Distribution Management System), an operational platform.

Those investments not only have paid off in fewer outages and less downtime for customers after storms, but earned an industry win for Alabama Power with the prestigious Achievement Award given by the Association of Edison Illuminating Companies on Oct. 12.

AEIC Executive Director Terry Waters will present the award to Alabama Power’s Pam Boyd, general manager of Power Delivery (PD) Technical Services, and Bill Mintz, manager of PD Technology, at a later date. Boyd and Mintz were among the nearly 1,100 company and contract employees involved in power restoration efforts after Hurricane Michael lashed the southeast and eastern portions of the state on Oct. 10.
