Doug Lego Retires From MEAG Power

Doug Lego, MEAG Power’s Senior Vice President, Transmission, has retired after 40 years serving Participants both at MEAG Power and Georgia Public Web.

Doug Lego began his career at MEAG Power as a substation engineer and went on to experience a wide range of opportunities across the organization. Over the years, he contributed to many significant milestones—from serving on the team that deployed MEAG Power’s first revenue metering and SCADA systems, to leading the effort to build a statewide fiber optic network. He also managed Corporate Affairs during the challenges of a global pandemic, represented the municipal sector on the SERC Board, and ultimately returned full circle to the Transmission team where his career began.

Along the way, he is grateful to have worked alongside exceptionally talented colleagues, collaborated with dedicated Board Members and Participants, and built lasting relationships with utility leaders across Georgia.  For Doug, MEAG Power has been far more than just a workplace—it has been a community, a source of purpose, and a place where he formed many meaningful and lasting relationships.

As he begins this next chapter, he looks forward to spending more time with his family, traveling, and finding new ways to give back to his community.

Please join MEAG Power in congratulating Doug on his remarkable career and wishing him all the best in his retirement. We thank him for his decades of service, dedication, and lasting impact on our organization and the Participants.
