KANSAS CITY, Missouri — Amid a rapidly changing electric generation mix, Burns & McDonnell is announcing key leadership promotions to help the firm deliver on clients’ biggest challenges. The Transmission & Distribution (T&D) Group of Burns & McDonnell has promoted seven individuals to expand services, depth and capabilities, as Senior Vice President Jim Hogan retires after 37 years with the firm.
“Jim Hogan spent four decades with Burns & McDonnell and T&D, and throughout that time period the power industry has seen huge shifts in the generation mix toward reducing carbon intensity with renewables, battery storage and flexible, fast-start, low hour units,” says John Olander, chief operating officer and president of the T&D Group, Burns & McDonnell. “Beyond that, the industry is undergoing a digital transformation as technology is allowing for better tools and more mobile applications.”
