WAPA’s Electric Power Training Center, a dedicated facility to train the grid and hydropower plant operators who make up the backbone of the North American power grid, recently hosted an open house to showcase its recent upgrades and renovations. EPTC staff was stationed around the facility informing numerous visitors of the improvements and performing demonstrations in between. The newly renovated classrooms at EPTC have an open-concept design and modern amenities. Each classroom features a projector screen and dedicated bathrooms, creating a fresh and professional learning environment. A guided tour showcased hydropower and transmission, culminating in a visit to the Miniature Power System, a simulated control room and electric power system at the back of the facility. EPTC’S open house event marked a new chapter for the EPTC and WAPA. WAPA employees can now enjoy new meeting spaces with hybrid capabilities, and students from across North America can have an experience like no other utilizing the Miniature Power System and upgraded course rooms.
