With a blistering, hot weekend expected throughout much of the West … it’s only fitting we witness the beauty of the desert for this week’s #PhotogenicFriday … This week’s image captures some of the beautiful, serpentine shapes of sandstone found adjacent to the Glen Canyon Switchyard Tower and Dam. The image, captured by former High Voltage Electrician Randy Hammit in 2017, shows the splendor of the eroded rock formations with Glen Canyon Dam, which is found at the edge of Lake Powell in northern #Arizona. Glen Canyon Dam has an installed capacity of 1,320 megawatts. WAPA TIP: BEAT THE HEAT! Make sure to have a plan in hot weather to stay safe and hydrated! #PhotogenicFridays #Electric #Infrastructure #Hydropower #CleanEnergy
