From Stephan Heberer of Ampacimon: "Grid modernization, as a concept, can be overwhelming and complex. It can also seem extraordinarily expensive and out of reach for many in the utility industry. Competing priorities, an array of funding programs, countless regulations, and increasing demand further complicate efforts. But I believe that by taking incremental steps forward, the nation can accelerate progress toward its grid modernization goals.  There are at least five million miles of distribution lines in the U.S. grid – five times more than any other country. Many parts of the U.S. distribution grid infrastructure are over 50 years old and past their expected lifespan, according to the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 2021 Infrastructure Report Card. The U.S. faces unique grid reliability and resilience challenges, even as it accelerates efforts to modernize the grid. " Read the rest on Energy Central now: https://lnkd.in/evsrBxst

The MT States are seeing a growing focus on electric vehicles (EVs) and the need for robust charging infrastructure. CSE's John Gartner will speak at Infraday Mountain States, 7/27, on the panel: EV Infrastructure in the Mountain States. Panelists will explore how states like Colorado, Utah, and Nevada are taking decisive action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainable transportation. Learn about the initiatives that are reshaping the transportation landscape including: ➡️ Expansion of charging stations along highways, in urban areas, and at commercial establishments. ➡️ Collaboration between utilities, public, and private entities to create charging networks and implement smart charging solutions. ➡️ State incentives and grants to accelerate EV adoption and infrastructure development.

Did you know that the electric power distribution system in the U.S. spans over 5.5 million line-miles and includes a staggering 180 million power poles? While this infrastructure is the backbone of our modern lives, it's also susceptible to weather-related damage, leading to a significant number of power outages every year. Addressing these vulnerabilities and improving the resilience of our power grid is crucial for ensuring uninterrupted energy supply. Let's work together to embrace innovative solutions and technologies that will not only enhance the reliability of our electric power distribution but also pave the way for a more sustainable and dependable future! #seetheopportunityineverydifficulty #Utiltites #ElectricPower #Infrastructure #Innovation #Resilience #EnergyEfficiency https://lnkd.in/edjMrF8M

While we often focus on resiliency in a specific project in the built environment, without a resilient energy grid, everything in the built environment is at risk. That's why I'm so excited to see these efforts to improve our grid's resilience. #energy #resiliency #infrastructure #construction #builtenvironment https://lnkd.in/gkMq5Jpp
