Legislative Updates

TMEPA Updates
We are often asked how we put on such a great meeting. It takes a lot of hard work by the committee and staff, of course, but it wouldn't happen without a very special group of our friends across the industry who unite with us to bring a top-quality meeting to Tennessee Municipal Electric Systems. Quite frankly, we couldn't bring in the speakers addressing topics important to each of you, have the many opportunities for special events, provide the outstanding food and drink and give you the opportunity to learn and network without their support. We encourage you to give these folks the opportunity to meet your system needs. Hopefully, you met each of them at the recent Annual Meeting and 50th Anniversary.
