If you’ve been following along this week, you’ll notice that we’ve been announcing our network-specific Top Voices of 2024 in Energy Central. These individuals have gone above and beyond in sharing their expertise, insights, and thought leadership with our community, delivering high-value content and sparking meaningful discussions about the future of energy. In a year full of challenges and opportunities, their contributions have shaped the conversation around the most pressing topics in the energy sector.
We wanted to pull all these honorees into a single post and thank them once again for helping to make Energy Central as vibrant and educational as it is. And remember that we asked each honoree three important questions:
- What was the most significant trend in the energy and utility sector in 2024 and how do you think it changed or impacted the industry?
- What do you anticipate will be the story to watch in 2025?
- What’s a recommendation you have for our Energy Central community—an article, podcast episode, book, video, etc.—that’s elevated the way you think about our industry?
To see the answers that came in, please click on the community-specific articles below. And if you want to be a Top Voice for 2025..now’s the time to start sparking conversation on Energy Central!
