“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.”

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.”

“One of the big issues we’ve been struggling with for a long time is that we are constrained in terms of natural gas pipelines coming into the region. That puts us at risk, particularly during winter months when gas gets prioritized for home heating, and there’s limited ability to bring in more gas to meet peak demand.”

“The Western Conference is also initiating a Commissioner-only meeting. Other regions have done that, and it might be the first one in recorded memory for the WCPS. We’re all looking forward to getting together in Scottsdale Arizona this fall and working through issues.”

“Collaboration is one of the highest priorities. MACRUC has certainly served as an essential platform for collaboration by providing opportunities for Mid-Atlantic regulators to come together and address the regional challenges we face collectively. By sharing practices, we enhance regulatory effectiveness.”
