Daniel Beans named Roseville Electric Utility Director

Roseville City Manager Dominick Casey announced today the appointment of Daniel Beans as Director of the Roseville Electric Utility. He will start Feb. 7.

Beans is currently the Director of Redding Electric Utility, where he’s worked since 2005. 

He participated in a highly competitive, national recruitment for this position and stood out for successfully implementing strategic and integrated resource planning, organizational and leadership development, and experience with the technical, regulatory and political aspects of municipal electric utility management and operations.

As Roseville’s Electric Utility Director, Beans will lead an electric utility founded in 1912, one of only a handful of municipally owned utilities in the state. He will oversee an award-winning utility known for reliability and value, which receives ratings significantly higher than the national average from its customers.
