As we learned in our debut “Competitiveness Conversation Across America” from Tennessee Valley Authority CEO Jeff Lyash, it took America ~100 years to build its electricity system. However, the country now faces an unprecedented challenge & opportunity: how will we expand & modernize that system in less than two decades to meet skyrocketing energy demand & fuel U.S. innovation? Check out the stark challenge in a special insight from the Council on Competitiveness & Keybridge here: https://lnkd.in/eU6Dmfic

Balancing the rising need for energy with our climate objectives demands swift progress in energy efficiency and innovative approaches such as new grid-enhancing technologies. Additionally, as demand increases, protecting these facilities from cyber threats becomes paramount. Thus, the key question becomes: how can we modernize century-old infrastructure while ensuring state-of-the-art network security? The straightforward solution lies in prioritizing security and designing infrastructure around it.

It takes an active government to build the infrastructure needed to keep the country running optimally. About 100 years ago the U.S. made investments in key infrastructure that pumped our economy and created valuable sources for its long-term future. That investment was the last significant one until the Biden-Harris Administration pressed for one. Once again the U.S. is making some critical investments that will create jobs, provide training, and spurring economic growth. As a an added benefit, this time around more stakeholders are being brought into the process to ensure more positive benefits all around. #infrastructure #federalgovernment #governance #investment #bidenharrisadministration #leavenoonebehind #environmentaljustice #economicjustice U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)
Built nearly 100 years ago, the Hoover Dam is a hallmark of big and bold action in the U.S. We invested in America then and, under the Biden-Harris Administration, we’re investing in America now. By 2030, we expect to add the equivalent of over 300 Hoover Dams-worth of clean energy to our grid.

A week ago, I participated in a panel discussion at Dagens Industri conference about the electricity market of the future. The panel discussion was about how the electrification of the society is to be financed. As we all know, the electrification is crucial for the decarbonisation. That is why its so important to find financing solutions now! The design of the Nordic electricity market as a whole, including both grids and new supply, and the financing solutions must be competitive in a global context. There must be long term predictability to attract capital from lenders and investors at competitive cost level. I had a very interesting discussion on these topics with Åsa Pettersson, Johan Lindehag, Jessica Krook ♦️ and mårten einarsson

The UK has a huge jumble of electricity markets that keep the power grid running smoothly. That's great news for EVs, home batteries, and heat pumps. They have flexible energy demand, so they can earn money by helping to balance the power grid. That's what we do at Axle Energy. Understanding the markets is key to monetising clean technologies. So I wrote a short guide to Britain's energy flexibility markets, with Karl. Read it here: https://lnkd.in/eWUSYJYe

A few thoughts on last weeks ESIA VEU Seminar - lots great conversations on the need for the VEU to drive more action in Measurement & Verification, Hotwater Heatpump, and Space/Heating and Cooling.
Hamish McGovern shares some reflections from the Victorian Energy Upgrades Program Seminar last week. The Seminar ‘Electrifying Victoria Sooner’ touched on a lot, from target setting, traps to avoid, future directions to how supply chains and markets will transform. It was a great event with keynote from Lily D’Ambrosio MP unpacking all the opportunities and issues as we prepare for the targets from 2026-2030! Hear what Hamish thought below.

Keeping tabs on the regulatory environment is a key component of our work here at Wayne Perry. The Western U.S. is spearheading the transition to alternative fueling options, bolstered by significant regulatory support at both federal and state levels. From the billions allocated by the NEVI Program for EV charging infrastructures to tax incentives under the AITC, the push for a greener future is strong. States like California and Oregon are not just encouraging but mandating the shift, with policies like the ZEV Mandate and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard accelerating the adoption of cleaner fuels. These evolving regulations promise to reshape our energy landscape, making alternative fuel stations a smart and sustainable investment for the future. Let's discuss how these changes can fuel your next project: https://bit.ly/3xxjANM #AlternativeEnergy #RegulatorySupport #SustainableInvestment
