Kim Holmes

Director at Energy New England

General Manager of the largest municipal light facility, Taunton. Kim started out as an intern at Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant twenty one years ago and has worked her way up through the years with various roles eventually becoming Business Manager, then Assistant General Manager. Kim’s transition to GM was smooth as she has been a member of the Taunton MLP family since the very beginning of her career. It is Kim’s love and understanding of public power that makes her such an asset to Taunton. She sees what public power has to offer its ratepayers with their ability to have direct influence on the community needs. Plus, her dedicated staff are so familiar with the system that overall they reduce outages and are far more reliable than investment owned utilities.
