The Energy Department’s Energy Information Administration forecasts the year and beyond, hosted by the Bipartisan Policy Center.

“We want to continue to have enough baseload power to reliably serve our members. That would be multiple types of resources, whether it’s nuclear, coal, or natural gas.”

“For utilities and states to reach their climate goals, it is essential we pursue a more innovative approach to energy affordability and give working families and disadvantaged communities better access to efficient and clean energy.”

“Where in critical infrastructure do I think the next industry difference can be made? Particularly around reliance, safety, impact on community. I concluded digitization is the next frontier.”

“Critical balancing capability is largely provided by highly flexible natural gas generation. We must invest to maintain (and improve) the natural gas system’s ability to meet the balancing needed to assure reliability.”

“We have delegated authority and responsibility from NERC to assure all registered entities in the Western Interconnection are complying with the mandatory reliability standards.”

“The market has been evolving in the west, starting from a bilateral market toward the Western Energy Imbalance Market. As we move into the day ahead market and potentially beyond, governance will need to continue evolving.”
