Navigating Reliability, Affordability, and Decarbonization: “Like the three legs of a stool, affordability, reliability and decarbonization must each be supported to maintain a stable and forward-looking energy system. At Central Hudson, we’re especially focused on affordability for our customers who are feeling the brunt of the rising cost of living.”

“EPRI’s research portfolio is focused on maintaining safe, reliable, and economical operation of today’s reactors, while supporting the development of next-generation technologies.”

“SEPA isn’t just a partner in progress – it’s a platform for visibility. When IOUs take ambitious steps, we help shine a light on them.”

“Supportive sentiment from all corners is at its highest since the 1960s, with once-adverse stakeholders recognizing the need for nuclear in future power supply. Potential new nuclear owners are already looking at the future new-build environment in a different way.”

Drinking Water scored the best at C-; Wastewater a D+; and Stormwater a D in the American Society of Civil Engineers’ Report Card for America’s Infrastructure.

“By clearly distinguishing energy efficiency from electrification and adopting comprehensive strategies informed by full-fuel-cycle data, policymakers can ensure practical, realistic, and effective progress toward achieving shared climate goals.”

“Given the rapid periodicity of change in the larger ecosystem, navigating the investments in the energy sector today is not about eliminating uncertainty – it is about reducing uncertainty through better information, and then developing solutions that are resilient to a variety of future outcomes.”

“To understand this energy growth and its impact on companies’ needs and expectations of their energy providers, EY teams surveyed more than 2,400 energy leaders and decision makers at medium and large businesses globally, including over 1,000 in the United States.”

Grid leaders from around the globe gathered in Washington, D.C. in May. Just on the first day of the week-long conference, speakers represented Australia, Côte d'Ivoire, Denmark, Finland, Jamaica, New Zealand, Switzerland, Tanzania, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, and Zambia. Plus the United States.

“We came across a neat wrinkle around the untapped potential of existing retired infrastructure, like a retired coal plant, which in many cases has transmission interconnection and substation infrastructure. There are about 180 or so that have adequate infrastructure for utilities to consider retrofitting.“
