presentations at this month's meeting, starting off which
what we hope to be an infrastructure series, and what is
more basic to our infrastructure than the power itself, so
Barbara Cenalmor of SRP will be telling us about the nitty
gritty of how SRP makes sure that you have all the power you
need at the moment you need it. Then der.hans will tell us
about better protecting ourselves on the web with uMatrix.
Last, but not least Aaron Jones will show us how to better
manage our digital fingerprints and to live safer in this
world filled with social media .<br>

Cenalmor: SRP Resource Planning </b><br>
<b>Description: </b><br>
It’s really easy to take electricity for granted. You hit the
ON button, and the computers instantly turn on. However, there
are a lot of things that go on behind the scenes to get that
electricity to you, the main user. <br>
To keep up with the demand and makes sure everybody can turn on
their computers, lights and appliances, utilities use resource
plans. <br>
This presentation explains what resource plans are, why they are
important and needed, what resource options are available to
utilities, what the trade-offs are between different resources
and what considerations are taken into account in the resource
strategy.<br>
<br>
<b>Biography:</b><br>
Barbara has 15+ years of experience working for regulatory
agencies around Arizona in Air Quality issues. A few years ago
she started working at Salt River Project (SRP), working to
ensure that the company and its power plants were in compliance
with all air quality regulations, and that the company's goals
focused on reducing emissions. To get a better insight on how a
large utility plans for future generation and more customers,
she slightly changed careers and went to work for SRP's Resource
Planning group where she participates in siting or acquiring new
generation (all types). <br>
In her spare time Barbara likes to hang out with her family,
listen to her husband ramble about all Linux things (most of
which she doesn't understand), reading, and traveling. <br>
