The current energy grid structure is vulnerable and difficult for providers to navigate. It was built to support a one-way flow of mostly carbon-based power from centralized sources. It typically doesn’t have the ability to quickly pivot in times of need or to support the 100% renewable energy critical to meet global climate goals like President Biden’s proposal to create a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035.

We must move to renewable energy sources and build a smarter grid.
