Dwayne Stradford’s Expertise I am an accomplished, diverse energy professional with over 30 years of experience regarding real-time transmission operations, short/long term transmission planning, NERC Compliance (both NERC-CIP and NERC O&P), FERC Order 1000 Transmission Development, Transmission Reliability Assurance, utility scale renewables integration, FERC Regulatory/RTO policy, and Project Management. I have spent the bulk of my career working for AEP, but I do have over a decade of working experience in the electric utility industry as a consultant. I have worked with utility clients on projects in all three interconnections, so I have breadth of regional BES experience throughout the entire country. From an IOU perspective, I spent most of career working at American Electric Power in the Transmission Operations department. I have worked in most areas of transmission operations starting out as an operations engineer supporting a local regional dispatch center. I eventually wound up supporting the reliability coordinators working with PJM and SPP. I performed online load flow analysis, offline load flow analysis, and worked on EMS/SCADA tools. Upon my return to AEP, after a consulting stint with Siemens-PTI, I became the Operations Engineering Manager in Transmission Operations. Prior to leaving AEP a second time, I was promoted to Director Transmission Reliability. My third time with AEP, I was Director Asset Strategy providing technical support on the regulatory side of the business. My last 5 years, I was focused on supporting AEP's NERC Compliance program in Transmission and then corporate wide. On the consulting front, my first experience came with Siemens-PTI as a Senior Consultant. I was involved with a number of generation interconnection studies and long-range generation resource planning studies. After my second tour with AEP, I worked for two well-known consulting firms. First with SAIC (now Leidos) in Denver, CO. My second position was with Navigant (now Guidehouse). I was initially based out of Washington, DC and then moved to the Austin, TX office. I am currently TRC's NERC Compliance Director based in Gahanna, OH. Specialties: I am a high-energy and dependable individual who excels in challenging environments. I am skilled in problem solving and troubleshooting. I have extensive experience utilizing the Siemens-PTI suite of tools for Transmission Planning studies (PSS/E and PSS/Must), in addition to teaching other utility professionals on how to use these tools. I have used Excel and Cognos to promote data analytics on the bulk electric system.
