Corwin has long been active with APPA, with stints chairing its Power Marketing Administration Task Force and serving on the board for PowerPAC-the association's political action committee. He also served on APPA's Advisory and Nominating committees.
"Having worked closely with APPA for many years, I have seen firsthand the great work it does on behalf of public power," said Corwin. "This staff is top-notch, the members are supportive and knowledgeable, and I am eager to get to work with all of them."
Corwin will lead APPA's staff, which is the voice of not-for-profit, community-owned utilities that power 2,000 towns and cities nationwide. APPA represents public power before the federal government to protect the interests of the more than 49 million people that public power utilities serve, and the 96,000 people they employ. It also advocates and advises on electricity policy, technology, trends, training, and operations.
"From addressing the energy transition to maintaining a secure grid, our industry is facing significant challenges moving forward when it comes to providing reliable and affordable power," said Corwin. "Public power is strong and well-positioned to succeed. I'm excited for the role that APPA and its members will continue to play in shaping the future of energy to the benefit of local communities."
