Legacy
Womack assumed the role of CEO in 2023 after a decades-long career navigating the company’s complex regulatory, political, and operational landscapes. As the former President of Georgia Power and the company’s primary liaison to state legislatures and public service commissions, Womack possesses an understanding of the political dynamics that govern utility rate cases. His defining strategic contribution has been the successful navigation of the final regulatory approvals for the Plant Vogtle nuclear expansion, securing the recovery of the project’s costs while maintaining strong relationships with consumer advocacy groups. Womack has also spearheaded the company’s aggressive pivot toward meeting the unprecedented electricity demand generated by hyperscale data centers, negotiating multi-billion-dollar, long-term power agreements with major technology companies.
