TransAlta Corporation employees Erin Jolicoeur - HR Business Partner, Tiffany Hoskins – Business Partner, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and Gary Woods - Vice President Gas are the winners of the 2023 Women in Electricity Award.

These efforts have all led to inclusionary outcomes that result in more women working for more electricity providers not just for TransAlta, but across Canada.
