Not only do Utilities give us life necessities in the form of power, but they also have missions and goals around impacting their communities. I work with Utilities across the USA and nearly every conversation involves community impact or community outreach. The local community is the customer and the customer is the priority. I applaud this Industry and those in it for keeping the customer top of mind. Duke Energy Corporation #utilitiesgiveback #communityimpact #giveback #powerthefuture #utilityjobs

What might these differing approaches mean for civil society? How can the sector best influence the Conservative party in the run-up to, and following, the general election? https://lnkd.in/etFybKQ3
