Building a Grid that Can Bend Without Breaking

Utilities have to balance reliability with cost, while also keeping room for cleaner energy sources that vary with weather and time. A more flexible grid supports that balancing act through better forecasting, more responsive operations, and technologies that help smooth out spikes when demand and supply don’t line up.

Breaking down EIP’s $1.36bn climate fund
This is growth capital aimed at the “missing middle”—the point where proven tech needs customers, not just code. Utilities in the LP base = pathways to deployment. We unpack the thesis, portfolio signals, and risks.

#ProTip (two of them); 1/ The #UK does not need #OnshoreWind. It can get more #WindEnergy Generating capacity from #OffshoreWind than onshore. This is still just politics. 2/ The #UK does need #GridModernization, but it needs to be below ground or in the sea. No more towers. You have already wrecked the #ScottishHighlands with the last go round. Another is not needed.
