COLCHESTER, Vt. (AP) - The top official at Vermont’s largest electric utility is leaving her position at the end of the year.
Green Mountain Power announced Monday that President and CEO Mary Powell is stepping down.
Powell is going to be replaced by Senior Vice President Mari McClure on Jan. 1.
The utility describes Powell’s 12-year-tenure as a time in which she “transformed GMP into (the) energy company of the future.”
GMP serves about 265,000 residential and business customers in Vermont. The utility has set a goal of getting 100 percent of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030.
Powell says that after she leaves GMP she plans to continue the fight against climate change in Vermont and across the country.
