ScottMadden

Running Up That Hill

This Energy Industry Update (EIU) explores how in the midst of and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic many efforts in the energy industry can feel like running uphill. Electricity markets are being asked to evolve in ways unanticipated when they were formed. Separately, the pandemic is forcing state utilities and regulators to answer tough questions and prepare strategies for recovery. Notwithstanding, certain initiatives are gaining momentum, including progress toward clean energy goals, development of offshore wind energy, and deploying hydrogen as an energy carrier across a number of applications.
