The Future of Grid Reliability
Join Politico for a deep-dive conversation on what it will take to ensure a reliable electric grid for the future on Wednesday, October 25 at 5:15 PM ET.
The EPA’s proposed standards for coal and new natural gas-fired power plants have implications for the future of the electric grid. These rules may lead to changes in the power generation mix – shifting to more renewable sources and leading to the potential retirement or modification of fossil fuel plants. These changes raise questions about how to ensure that America will have the electric power that it needs, where and when we need it.
