Principal Ryan Hledik was quoted in a recent Washington Post article on how rising electricity prices in the US can be lowered.

Mr. Hledik explained that peak electricity demand is expected to grow over the next five years, and if that demand can be connected to the grid in a way that avoids the need to build expensive new infrastructure, it can be beneficial to all customers. He noted that, “Many hours of the day or times of the year, you have a lot of space capacity on the grid. If you can get new customers or new electricity consumption added to the grid when and where there is spare capacity – you could spread the cost of the grid across more customers and bring rates down.”
