The New Jersey Utilities Association said Jan. 15 that Andrew Hendry, regional president of Atlantic City Electric, and Teresa Reed, vice president, finance and regulatory for Jersey Central Power & Light, have been elected to its board of directors, effective immediately.
Both Hendry and Reed’s nominations were unanimously approved by the NJUA Board at its Dec. 16, 2025, board of directors meeting.
