The Distance
The energy transition remains much discussed in the energy and utilities industry. For some, this transition is not moving at the pace and linearity they would prefer. But some ambitions are meeting the reality of the time and cost of making dramatic changes to an energy system.
The theme of this issue is “The Distance,” which reflects time and effort (i) to get new non-emitting energy technologies to commercialization (long-duration storage, next-generation geothermal), (ii) to improve regional transmission planning and get transmission projects under way (FERC orders), (iii) to reconfigure (if feasible) power generation or to preserve resources as long as possible for reliability (EPA greenhouse gas regulations), and (iv) to implement effective programs for affordability (low-income energy affordability).
