Silence Of The Grid Experts

 There are many reasons why grid experts within the electric utility industry have not spoken out when unrealistic "Green" goals were being developed and promoted over the last 20 years or so.

Collectively these factors tended to eliminate grid experts from playing any role in the development of policies impacting the grid.

In the area of grid reliability, the grid depends on margin.

FERC effectively shut down reliability discussions between in-house generation experts and transmission experts.

Will there ever again be grid experts who have skin in the game again?

There were a lot of utility experts with grid concerns.

The days of utility-based grid experts who've had skin in the game are over.
