Episode High Voltage, High Stakes Cover

High Voltage, High Stakes

In this episode of Western Watts, hosts Elizabeth Schilling and Julia Eshleman sit down with Travis Berg, Vice President of Transmission Maintenance at Tri‑State, for an inside look at the people and systems that keep the power flowing. Travis breaks down how Tri-State's transmission line, substation, and telecommunication department work together across our four states, and why much of this critical work happens far from public view. From wildfire response and storm restoration to safety and leadership, the conversation highlights the skill, dedication, and teamwork behind grid reliability. It’s a powerful reminder that keeping the lights on takes far more than meets the eye, and that these transmission workers and their families all play a vital role.
