The issue of grid resilience must be understood as an issue of national security.
Jonathon Monken testified on this before the House Oversight Committee, Subcommittee on Economic Growth, Energy Policy, and Regulatory Affairs.
The Big Picture. How we generate, use, and deliver electricity to customers is under threat by natural and man-made risks that demand our collective attention.
What’s Clear.
- The energy system that underpins our collective economic security must be supported through targeted planning, investment, and policy.
- The rapid development of new resources must be matched with a corresponding investment in electric transmission infrastructure.
- We need a holistic grid modernization strategy with access to all available technologies.
