“Most of Alaska’s rural areas are served by small, isolated, and high-cost electric systems that are only connected by a statewide energy policy of power cost equalization to help reduce rural electric costs.”

“This year has brought dynamic changes to the global energy landscape, bringing both new challenges and new opportunities to the clean energy transition. Our monthly columns provided key insights into the trends and innovations shaping the future of electricity worldwide.”

“As part of its broader EVs2Scale2030 initiative, EPRI continues to add important features to its eRoadMap, a first-of-its kind interactive power and energy map launched in late 2023 and designed to estimate local grid needs across the U.S. as transportation electrifies.”

“Our Operate portfolio is designed to help electric utilities manage disruption more effectively. It provides software technology that facilitates better decision making, helping operators predict potential damage or risk, streamline responses, and generally recover faster from an event.”

“What makes nuclear power uniquely suited to meet growing energy demand? It is the only solution that delivers efficient, clean, consistent baseload power, while also strengthening national security.”

“Ohio recognized the need to act and clean up not only the industrial waste but the unchecked discharge of raw sewage. What could no longer be ignored was the need for federal standards, oversight, and consequences. Environmental cleanup was not yet comprehensive, nor a national priority.”

“With the combination of a complete RPS, that moves to total fruition at one hundred percent renewable energy, and going beyond net neutral on carbon emissions, Hawaii has one of the more robust energy policies anywhere.”

“100% of generation should come from renewable resources by 2045. There’re definitions of what’s considered renewable generation. We’re a finite land mass. There’s no inter-island cable. Each island needs to figure out the right mix.”
