The air was electric and the energy was tangible at the 2025 Florida Lineman’s Rodeo on Saturday, March 8, when 15 Duke Energy Florida lineworkers took home top awards, earning the opportunity to compete in one of the most prominent and celebrated lineworker events in the world – the International Lineman’s Rodeo – this fall.

As the energy industry continues to evolve, one thing remains: The job of a lineworker is critical to the safe and efficient delivery of power for customers now and into the future. On April 18, Duke Energy recognizes National Lineworker Appreciation Day and the sacrifices, integrity and service of Florida’s lineworkers.

At a competition powered by skill and packed with competitors, 15 Duke Energy Florida lineworkers secured spots over the weekend to compete among the most elite lineworkers in the world this fall at the International Lineman's Rodeo.

Finely curated recipes may not come to mind when you think about lineworkers or the electric grid, but Duke Energy’s E-Recipe Book may have you thinking differently when you check out this year’s edition, which manages to connect them in a clever way.
