A recent article in the Energy Law Journal probes the topic of utility climate resilience planning and regulation. The TLDR? Improved forecasting methods can be utilized by utilities for climate change resilience planning and state commissions can mandate this type of planning. Appreciate the deep dive by Janice Beecher, Harvey Reiter, and Jeffrey Watkiss. Shoutout to Salient's forward-thinking utility customers who are doing this now -- you are demonstrating the path ahead for this sector. #forecastfurther Dive deeper: Read the full article here https://lnkd.in/ezHvRiiX And read Salient's take on this back in January 2024 here https://lnkd.in/e783yaSi

After some post-workshop adventures, that’s a wrap! The Salient team, including Brian Zimmerman, Karl Critz, Janet Lee, and myself, enjoyed meeting project partners at TomorrowNow.org's workshop in Nairobi. Productive in-person conversations between FFOs, researchers, weather data providers, and tech partners moved us all towards our shared goal of connecting smallholder farmers to weather intelligence. And expertise across organizations and use cases brought clarity to the dynamic and exciting challenge to develop, as Neil Hausmann put it, “the most cutting edge technologies for the people who need them the most.” Many thanks to Brian Miranda, Philip Frost, Georgina Campbell Flatter and others for making this fantastic workshop happen. 🌱 Tag Laura Fieselman
