“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.”

Hawaii is undergoing a major transformation to move from a state that was almost completely reliant on imported fossil fuels to one powered by clean, renewable energy. Hawaii was the first state to commit to one hundred percent clean, renewable energy for electricity. PUF’s Paul Kjellander talks with Hawaii PUC Chair Leo Asuncion and the State’s Chief Energy Officer Mark Glick.

“President Tricia Pridemore’s ‘Let There Be Light’ agenda kicks off at the winter meeting. She will reiterate the plans she laid out at the Annual Meeting and put into action through the Demand Roundtable, the Gas-Electric Alignment for Reliability Task Force meeting, and more.”

PUF is now powered by SEPA. Together, we envision an exciting journey ahead and the unlimited possibilities of what we can accomplish together on behalf of both our members and our industry.

“We are making large investments in the electric grid, both transmission and distribution, as well as a significant investment in new and clean generation.”

“We have over $5 billion in proposed projects pending before state regulators – the largest total generation projects I’ve ever seen in Wisconsin. Economic development is strong in Wisconsin, and for us to meet the energy needs, we need to build the additional capacity and the distribution and transmission.”

Conversations with WEC Energy Group CEO Scott Lauber and Xcel Energy CEO Bob Frenzel. Co-moderated by PUF’s Steve Mitnick, with Guidehouse’s Dan Hahn and Chris Rogers.

SEPA clearly is as passionate about Public Utilities Fortnightly as we are. And is ready to invest aggressively to really ramp up our capacity and expand our service to you and the entire utility regulatory and policy community.

“To reclaim balance, a cultural reset is needed – one that places mission and purpose at the center of operations. Workforce development must be a pillar of this reset.”
