Podcasts about commissions

After a $100K first 1/3 of the year, I'm now sitting here with zero projects on my calendar. How did this happen?! I'll tell you in today's episode of the Artist Academy Podcast. I take full responsibility. I burned myself out in the first part of the year, going full steam ahead with work and socials. Then spring sprung in Missouri, and I had better things to do than outreach and painting for other people—things like gardening, farming, and just being outside in this beautiful weather with people I actually like. Every time I hit a dip in commissions, I can't help but wonder: Is this the universe giving me the time (or rather, forcing me) to finally tackle those things on my wishful to-do list? Things like picking up canvas painting again. I caught myself saying, “I'm just not motivated,” and “Maybe it's just a slow season in my area.” But are those things even real? Not really. Let's dive into it…

What are public utility commissions (PUCs)? In the transition to clean energy, state public utility commissions (PUCs), which regulate electric, gas, telecommunications, water and wastewater utilities, play an increasingly important role in achieving energy efficiency, enabling renewable energy, and implementing policies for greenhouse gas emissions reduction. PUCs  play a pivotal role in determining the energy mix, setting rates, and deciding on investments in infrastructure, such as electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), for example, has to balance  safety, reliable utility service, and reasonable rates through the regulation of various large investor-owned electric, natural gas, and water utilities. Utility commissions like CPUC are given a statutory mandate to ensure reasonable, adequate and efficient service to customers at just and reasonable prices. PUCs can issue regulations that impact electricity generation, the adoption of clean energy, and related emissions of pollutants and GHGs. PUCs can play an important role in shaping energy infrastructure, policy, and clean energy development.The Role PUCs play in shaping energy infrastructurePUCs were first created in the early 20th century to focus on overseeing operations and the utility investment in service while ensuring affordable rates. That role has evolved, and now PUCs often play a transformative role in transitioning towards a greener economy. PUCs have the ability to consider the impacts of GHG emissions, equity, grid reliability, distributed energy resources, and increased consumer choices in their policy decisions. PUCs oversee planning processes that affect a utility's resource portfolio and therefore its environmental profile. A new method of planning amongst PUCs has emerged known as Integrated Resource Planning (IRP), which compares the life cycle costs of different resource choices that factor energy efficiency into their analysis. Portfolio standards have also been added to IRP, which requires certain types of resources to be included in the utilities' mix of power procured, including renewable energy and energy efficiency. PUCs can also incorporate environmental considerations by increasing oversight of utility planning processes, setting prices, determining clean energy targets, and addressing utility incentives related to energy efficiency and distribution. PUCs thus have the ability to promote and shape clean energy adoption and development through their regulatory oversight. The Case for PUCsState PUCs have significant authority, often includingI the ability to accelerate decarbonization of the energy sector, mitigate the impacts of climate change, improve public health, and assist in reaching state energy goals. Updated PUC statutory mandates that reflect state energy priorities can contribute to their success in transforming the energy grid to become more energy efficient. Energy efficiency is a cost-effective mechanism to meet future demand for electricity. Energy efficiency reduces the amount of electricity needed to meet demand thereby benefiting the overall reliability of the electric grid. With more efficient systems, utilities and states will not need to build as much new transmission and generation, which can save money and improve environmental quality. Further, modern regulations to achieve such priorities and framing for the public interest can incorporate climate and environmental justice concerns. The Case Against PUCsOrganizational challenges such as outdated mandates, staff constraints, gaps in technical knowledge, misinformation, and quasi-judicial processes have created barriers to innovation amongst PUCs. Some PUCs still continue to view themselves as purely economic regulators, which does not accurately reflect the current decisions they are being asked to make. Additionally, the authority of PUCs varies widely from state to state. PUCs authority is established by state legislatures, thus their power only extends as far as their statutory authorization. The level of statutory authority delegated to PUCs by legislatures also varies widely. Barriers such as these have made it difficult for some  PUCs to develop more innovative mechanisms consistent with new environmental targets and the effort to achieve a zero-carbon US grid.While transitioning to clean energy promises long-term savings and environmental benefits, the short-term costs can be significant and potentially burdensome for consumers and businesses, posing political and fiscal challenges for PUCs. Stakeholder engagement in this transition will be vital. Labor issues also pose challenges as states transition away from  fossil fuels. In addition, challenges exist around regulatory complexities and the evolving federal and state policies. About Our GuestJill Tauber is the Vice President of Litigation for Climate and Energy at EarthJustice.

What is the purpose of journalism? What is the purpose of the government? What makes up society? How did we get here? All the questions David Byrne asked in Once in a Lifetime? This is the audio edition of Charlottesville Community Engagement, a podcast that features audio versions of stories that have gone out in the written version. To add to the confusion, there's also Information Charlottesville which is intended to capture all of these stories in one place for future people to look back toward.Now, what's up this time?* Speakers seek answers on next steps for zoning in Charlottesville (learn more)* City Manager Sanders provides status report on various initiatives (learn more)* Charlottesville City Council gets update on ANCHOR program (learn more)* Applications being taken for Charlottesville Boards and Commissions (learn more)* Speakers tell Charlottesville City Council of what they say are threats to U.S. Constitution (must produce)* Albemarle Planning Commission recommends approval of more residential units at Brookhill (need to produce)Today's experimental sponsor is Westwind Flowers. You can hear a more detailed description in the audio above, just after the show's billboard. Why experimental? If you're interested, respond to this email and I can share some information. An explanation of #895-AThis is coming out much earlier than usual, just as the Week Ahead for the period beginning July 14 will also be out earlier. I'm taking a road trip which means making adjustments. However, as a one-person operation, that doesn't mean the work will stop. Hundreds of you are paying me to do this work, and so I do! I'm absolutely grateful. Sunday is also the fifth anniversary of the newsletter. I've not done anything too terribly special for it except decide to go on a road trip which will keep me away from the screen for most of the day. Instead I'll see a good chunk of the country as I help out a friend. In any case, do take a listen if you've not heard one of these before. I got my professional start in public radio and realized fairly on that no public radio station in their right mind would hire me because in the early 2000's I was quite critical of the shrinking amount of time available for local stories. So, stubborn old me created the Charlottesville Podcasting Network in 2005, a website I still maintain but won't send you a link because I've not figured out how to fix something. And then I created a podcast called the Charlottesville Quarantine Report in March 2020 out of a desperate need to return to journalism. The podcast gets about a tenth of the audience, but I believe it's the best version of the work I do. I love being able to mix in people's voices, and there's so much more to be done. However, I'm a one-person operation with many ideas to unfurl. Thanks to paid subscribers for helping to keep this thing sailing along and let's hope I find the map.
