The Next Chapter

You may have noticed an ad in last Friday's papers seeking a President and Chief Executive Officer for Yukon Energy. David Morrison has announced he is retiring by the end of this year.

David has been President and CEO of Yukon Energy since 2003. Under his leadership Yukon Energy has, among other things, increased its renewable generating capacity by about 15 percent through the Mayo B and Aishihik 3 projects and completed the Mayo to Dawson and Carmacks to Stewart Crossing transmission lines (providing flexibility by allowing our system to be managed as one integrated grid).

We will miss him a great deal and wish him all the best in the next chapter of his life.

David loved the opportunities he's had over the years to talk to students about electricity. In this photo he is speaking to a grade 11 science class.
