Richard G. Johnstone Jr. has been named president and CEO of the Glen Allen-based Virginia, Maryland & Delaware Association of Electric Cooperatives (VMDAEC).
Johnstone succeeds Jackson E. “Jack” Reasor, who remains president and CEO of cooperative power supplier Old Dominion Electric Cooperative. Until Johnstone’s appointment, Reasor also served as president and CEO of VMDAEC.
“The board and I felt that the time was right for the association to have a full-time president and CEO, because of the large and expanding array of industry issues facing the association as the cooperative services supplier,” Reasor said.
