FMPA’s communication efforts honored by industry peers

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 21, 2015 – Florida Municipal Power Agency’s (FMPA) website received the Excellence in Public Power Communications award from the American Public Power Association (APPA) today at the association’s Customer Connections Conference in Austin, Texas.

The website, www.FMPA.com, is many times the first place people go to learn about FMPA or look for the latest information. So, when FMPA redesigned its website in October 2014, the project goals included improving usability for smartphone and tablet users, enhancing site features based on user feedback, refreshing design and content, and updating the site’s security.

FMPA received APPA’s Award of Merit for utilities with gross revenues of $400 million or more. APPA awards utilities in four separate categories of communication: print, social media, video, and web. Each category was judged based on ingenuity and creativity.
