2025.08.21 | Power Play: Unpacking the Federal Shake-Up, State Showdowns, and the Battle for the Grid's Future
from Current Events - The Electric Utility Today · host Edmundo Rodriguez
From the introduction of the Fair Act and the EPA's proposed repeal of greenhouse gas emission standards to Pennsylvania's House Bill 1272 and Arizona's renewable energy rule repeal efforts, the industry is grappling with a significant refocus towards energy production and reliability over purely climate-driven goals. Despite headwinds in the offshore wind sector, we examine the explosive growth in solar and battery storage and the evolving role of grid-edge technologies like smart meters and electric vehicles, which are blurring traditional lines of power management. Join us as we explore how these complex forces are not just changing how power is made and moved, but are fundamentally questioning who controls the grid of the future.
