The April 2024 edition of Hydro Leader magazine features a one-on-one interview with BPA Administrator and CEO John Hairston.
Hairston shares how the culmination of his various roles at the agency, beginning as a new hire in Power Rates more than 30 years ago, expanded not only his knowledge of hydropower, but grew his appreciation for the Northwest's largest renewable resource.
The interview covers various topics, including BPA's legacy, the critical role of hydropower in supporting intermittent renewables, hydropower performance during extreme weather conditions and Hairston's vision for the future.
