As Labor Day weekend came to a close, a sense of dread settled in at the home of Allison Clements, who was appointed to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in 2020.
On the cusp of entering fifth grade, Clements' daughter was tasked with completing a homework assignment over the summer break. And of course, it wasn’t done.
Upgrading the U.S. electric grid is akin to the nation's own summer homework, Clements said on Episode 16 of the Factor This! podcast. And Labor Day weekend has long since passed as an opportunity to complete catch-up work.
Clements discussed record heat in the West, resiliency, and FERC’s effort to reform transmission planning and interconnection rules.
