A crisis of affordability and reliability is on the horizon for #gas customers. "The answer to this looming challenge is not to ignore the dangerous waters ahead. Rather, it is to acknowledge that the world is changing, and ask how we can reconfigure our utilities and utility regulations to minimize risks today and set us up for greater success tomorrow," write Advanced Energy United's Sarah Steinberg and Current Energy Group's Brad Cebulko in Utility Dive . Read their op-ed below on the steps state regulators and utilities can take to avoid disaster for customers during the #energytransition ⬇ https://lnkd.in/eXswh__5

“This policy represents the opportunity for the Commonwealth to increase clean energy development and secure its status as a national energy leader.” United is proud to support “PRESS,” the Pennsylvania Reliability Energy Sustainability Standard. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Danielle Friel Otten, aims to increase clean energy development in Pennsylvania, cementing the state's status as a national energy leader while creating jobs and supporting local communities.

If #Nevada electric utility NV Energy incorporated more #VPPs into its resource mix, it would lower costs and help the state meet its growing energy needs. RTO Insider LLC reports on our new analysis, “Moving the Needle on DERs and VPPs in Nevada.” https://lnkd.in/eaArwTXA As we wrote in our report announcement: “If #VPPs are left out of resource planning as load grows and fossil fuel assets retire, #Nevada runs the risk of saddling ratepayers with unnecessarily expensive sources of capacity."

America needs changes to the federal policies impacting how we permit and site electric transmission, energy generation, and mining projects for the critical minerals needed to power many advanced energy technologies. And we need #PermittingReform at the state-level too. In our latest blog post, by our Managing Director Trish Demeter, we discuss our newly developed ⚡ Guide to Reforming State-Level Siting and Permitting Policies ⚡. These policy principles provide guidance for state-level decision-makers seeking to balance community interests with the need to meet growing energy needs, improve power grid reliability, and meet clean energy goals. ⤵️

#Nevada's electricity demands are going up 📈 Virtual power plants (VPPs) can be the solution! VPPs are a powerful tool that act as a connector between distributed energy resources (DERs) and result in affordable and reliable energy solutions💡 Our latest blog by United’s Brian T. Turner, Sheila Hallstrom & Chloe Holden lays out a set of best practices that are critical to maximizing the benefits of DERs and VPPs in Nevada resource planning. “VPPs can provide the same kind of reliability and enhanced economic value compared with centralized power plants – but only if they are designed to take full advantage of the thousands of DERs that Nevada homeowners and business owners are installing each year.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gnrqtqYz

Meeting our climate goals will require electrifying not only transportation, but buildings. I'm excited to have had the chance to co-author this report to provide a toolkit for modernizing regulation to advance building electrification. I enjoyed working with Brad Cebulko, Ron Nelson, Matthew McDonnell, and the team at Advanced Energy United on this!
Electrification trends are fundamentally changing our energy system needs, but the way we regulate gas utilities hasn’t kept pace. Customers are getting caught in the crosshairs. That is why we partnered with Strategen to create a guide that aims to help policymakers, regulators, and stakeholders understand the available options for reform. On our blog, Sarah Steinberg writes, “The time is ripe for a re-examination of this [regulatory] model, for some out-of-the-box thinking and hard conversations, and for some thoughtful implementation of new tools and strategies.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/evcTRc8c Read our report: https://lnkd.in/eg3bnMX7
