“We must focus on distribution, specifically undergrounding and other grid hardening efforts. We need to be prepared as an industry. We are extremely focused on innovating an intelligent, resilient grid that can mitigate and recover.”

“We have transformed PSM into a global business, where we can tackle, within the constraints perhaps of certain fleets, the entire gas turbine engine. That’s what I’m proud of.”

Conversations with Power Systems Manufacturing President Alex Hoffs, S&C Electric CEO Anders Sjoelin, and Itron CEO Tom Deitrich.

“Globally, we are the fourth largest renewable supplier in the world. In the U.S., we have more than 8 GW of operational utility-scale wind and solar capacity. That’s almost 5% of the entire market. Both are growing exponentially year-over-year.”

“We always start with the customer and find ways to enhance that experience through the cloud. Utilities look to the cloud because they can quickly spin up resources as they need them and only pay for what is used, similar to a pay-as-you-go model.”

“We’ve made investments to ensure our reliability is essentially top quartile and, in some instances, top decile, for example as we have at ComEd. We know the grid is ready to accept levels of electrification.”

Conversations with Exelon Chief Strategy and Sustainability Officer Sunny Elebua, Amazon Web Services Head of Worldwide Business Development – Energy and Utilities Rolf Gibbels, EDP Renewables North America CEO Sandhya Ganapathy, at CERAWeek by S&P Global.

“Though it’s a small percentage of the norm, we must strengthen the grid to plan for those extreme cases, which in the past we never had to do. This is a paradigm shift for the industry.”

AEIC approached PUF proposing to jointly host a spring version of this nearly 140-year-old tradition. Edison Congress 2023 will bring together officers and directors from 35 different utilities to share experiences, lessons learned, and best practices.
