PUF brings you a taste of the Electrification Virtual Summit, with excerpts from plenary sessions held each day. 
 

2020 is a year of necessary progress in almost inconceivably difficult times. In spite of unforeseen challenges, the electricity system continues to evolve, and customers have ever-increasing choices to adopt clean energy technologies.
