Keith Woods for SRP | Leading the Charge for Clean, Reliable Power in Metro Phoenix
Phoenix, AZ | Public Service, Utility Leadership, SRP Board Election
As the Salt River Project (SRP) prepares for its 2020 elections, long-serving board member Keith Woods is seeking re-election to the District 7 Board of Directors seat, representing neighborhoods across east Phoenix, including the Biltmore area, Arcadia, Tempe (north of the Salt River), and parts of south Scottsdale.
A Legacy of Service and Leadership
Keith Woods first entered SRP leadership in 1996 when voters elected him to the Council. Four years later, he joined the SRP Board of Directors. Over the past two decades, he has consistently championed initiatives that prioritize clean energy, affordability, and long-term reliability for SRP’s water and power customers.
Currently serving as Chairman of the SRP Power Committee, Woods leads critical projects including:
- The retirement of the coal-fired Navajo Generating Station in Page, Arizona
- The addition of 1,000 megawatts of solar energy and battery storage
- An aggressive push toward achieving 50 percent electric vehicle (EV) adoption by 2035 within SRP’s service territory
Throughout, he remains committed to delivering affordable and reliable water and electricity that support residential, commercial, and agricultural users across the Valley.
A Vision Rooted in Community
In a recent statement published on his campaign site KeithForSRP.com, Woods emphasized the importance of experience and community-driven leadership:
“Delivering clean, affordable, reliable water and power to our neighborhoods, businesses, and nonprofit organizations has been my goal for more than 20 years of service — first as your SRP Councilman, then as your SRP Board Director. These are the cornerstones of vibrant, successful communities.”
Woods argues that SRP must remain forward-thinking as it transitions from coal to renewable energy, expands smart grid technology, and prepares for increased EV demand. At the same time, the utility must continue to deliver low-cost electricity and sustainable water access for families, cities, and farmers alike.
Re-Elect Keith Woods on April 7, 2020
The SRP District 7 election will be held on Tuesday, April 7, 2020. Keith Woods brings decades of trusted leadership, a proven track record, and a clear vision for navigating SRP through today’s challenges and tomorrow’s innovations.
