  • How this utility is solving the supply chain puzzle
    2025/01/27
    The supply chain has been a trending topic and area of concern in all industries since the COVID-19 pandemic, and as the utility seeks to build more than ever before in a new era of grid modernization and clean energy one of the main bottlenecks remains the available supply of necessary equipment and materials. This week, Power Perspectives welcomes in Laura Lewis, Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel at SMUD, to educate us on how one of the largest community-owned utilities in the nation is tackling supply chain challenges while advancing its ambitious clean energy goals. Laura shares SMUD’s strategies for navigating these obstacles, from securing critical needs like transformers to optimizing inventory processes. With a focus on electrification, regulatory collaboration, and sustainable practices, SMUD is setting a powerful example for utilities nationwide. Tune in to learn about: - SMUD’s innovative approaches to supply chain management amidst tight markets and inflation. - The legal and operational intersections of supply chain strategies in the clean energy transition. - How electrification of vehicles and buildings shapes grid infrastructure needs. - The strategic partnerships with federal and state agencies to secure critical resources. Join host Jason Price and producer Matt Chester as they explore these vital topics with Laura Lewis and uncover how utilities can balance operational reliability with bold clean energy ambitions.

    2025/01/18
    Federal funding has poured into the utility space to ensure the expansion of internet connectivity can take hold across the country, but what do results on the ground look like? In the latest Power Perspectives episode, we are joined by Adam Rehfeld, Business Line Manager for Distribution Modernization at Burns & McDonnell. Sitting on the front line of this implementation of connectivity for utilities, specifically in the complex world of third-party pole attachments (TPAs), Adam has keen lessons to share with utilities who are still waiting to get up to speed in this area. As utilities gain opportunities to expand connectivity with TPA implementation, this moment is a critical one for leaders to properly address regulatory, operational, and technological challenges. Adam provides insights into the evolution of pole attachments, the role of utilities in expanding broadband to underserved areas, and the importance of maintaining clear inventories of pole usage. Press play and gain keen insights into: - Why TPAs are a hot topic in today’s utility sector. - How federal funding impacts TPA growth and utility strategies. - The role of technology in improving pole attachment inventory and data management. - The intersection of TPAs with modern grid trends like undergrounding and distributed generation. Whether you’re a utility decision-maker or a broadband stakeholder, this episode offers a comprehensive guide to navigating the TPA landscape. So join host Jason Price and producer Matt Chester as they welcome in Adam Rehfeld's insights on the critical interplay between internet connectivity and the power utility sector.
