The world of the power regulator plays such an essential role in the everyday operation of the utility industry, but the true inner workings can sometimes remain less visible to those across the sector. But as the regulatory bodies get run by dedicated public servants, they keep the industry's and the public's best interest in mind and understanding their inner workings can provide critical value to how to best interact with them for a more beneficial tomorrow across the utility landscape. To assist in that understanding, this episode of the Energy Central Power Perspectives Podcast welcomes the outgoing Commissioner of the New York State Public Service Commission, Diane Burman. Diane is joined by Paul DeCotis, Senior Partner at West Monroe and a regular stakeholder who engaged with her during her time on the Commission. Listen in as Commissioner Burman reflects on her 11 years of service, treating podcast host Jason Price and producer Matt Chester to unparalleled insights into the regulatory environment and the future of the energy grid. The discussion navigates through the past decade's transformations and anticipates what lies ahead for the utility sector. From the evolving dynamics between regulators and utilities to looking ahead at the government role in the industry, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of energy governance.

When the echoes of your past shape the snapshots of your present, there's a story to tell. That's what we discovered in our latest conversation with Casey, a New York-born, California-drenched photographer whose life is as colorful as his portfolio. From his origins shadowing a journalist father to his abstract interpretations of the mundane, Casey's journey behind the lens is a vibrant tale of self-discovery. Whether it's the reflective surface of a still-life or the candid vibrancy of a music festival, his photography captures the essence of each moment, framing life's vast tableau with an artist's eye.This episode isn't just about still images; it's a moving picture of Casey's adventures through the lens of reality TV and thumping beats of deep house music. Swapping anecdotes from the set of HGTV's 'Inside Out' to reminiscing over spinning tracks at Foo Bar, Casey peels back the curtain on the creative process, both on-screen and behind the decks. His stories meander through the streets of New Orleans, shimmer under the California sun, and touch upon the human connections that define our experiences—like the story of Becca, his barber, who now shapes more than just hairlines.We wrap up with the sensory rush of photographing punk rock legends and the serene focus required to capture the morning surf. Casey gives us a glimpse into the dynamics of founding a new community post-relocation, contrasting the warmth of old friendships with the brisk handshake of industry acquaintances. Through it all, Casey's narrative is a testament to the power of passion, the beauty of embracing your roots, and the art of balancing life's contrasts, whether you're perched on a board waiting for the next wave or flashing a smile for the next shot.Support the showFollow us on Instagram @spacecoastpodcastSponsor this show
On Friday before the Southwick National, New England fan favorites Doug Henry, John Dowd, and Jimmy Decotis stopped by the Monster Energy Stage to share some memories and talk about what they're doing today. For Dowd and Henry, the story is simple: the legends are now part of the Southwick track crew! Jimmy D, meanwhile, stepped away from racing two years ago and had been quiet since, but now he's back on the bike and working with young riders in the area. He's also planning to race Southwick for fun next year! The real kicker? The humble stories of Dowd and Henry. Did you know Doug came to Southwick as a fan, just watching on the fence, and then six years later he was the 125 National Motocross Champion? That's crazy, but for Doug Henry, it's normal. Enjoy the show. The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura, Leatt, and AOMC.

Data has become a much sought after asset in the utility world, providing arguably as much value as the electrons being sent over the grid. When utilities have data on consumption patterns, asset performance, and digital engagement, they are armed with the tools to optimize their processes to improve service and save themselves and their customers on costs. The journey over recent years to embrace those digital tools has not always been quick or straightforward, but the industry has seen clear thought leaders rise that shepherd in this new era for the power sector. Joining the Energy Central Power Perspectives Podcast today are two such leaders who are able to look back at that journey and simultaneously peer into the future for what's to come next. Mike Murphy is the General Manager of Customer Operations at Con Edison who has served in this industry for more than two decades, bringing the digital opportunities to customers through insights, bill delivery, and more. He's also worked closely with the other guest today, Paul DeCotis of West Monroe. Paul serves as Senior Partner and East Coast Practice Lead and he's constantly identifying advanced grid projects that have revolutionized the utility industry time and again. They're joining host Jason Price and producer Matt Chester in this episode to offer their insights and advice as other stakeholders embrace this digital and data journey.

Prepare for More Distributed Energy Resources. Paul DeCotis, senior director in West Monroe Partners' Energy and Utilities practice, was a guest on The POWER Podcast. West Monroe, in partnership with Greentech Media, conducted a survey of more than 1,700 utility customers, 140 utility executives and managers, and more than two dozen regulators in major markets across North America. Its findings were released in a report titled Planning for a Distributed Energy Future. Interestingly, 92% of survey respondents said they had distributed energy resources (DERs) on their system, up from 80% when the survey was conducted three years ago. However, DeCotis noted during the podcast that DERs are not yet universally economical throughout the U.S. “Not all states and regulatory jurisdictions handle DERs the same. It'll be a few years before we see very significant DER penetrations uniformly across the country,” DeCotis said. “DERs still need substantial backup generation because utilities have the obligation to serve load and be the provider of last resort, so the industry will develop cautiously in some parts of the country until regulations become more certain and incentives become more mature,” he added. The report notes that distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) technology is on many utilities' radar, but more than half of respondents said they had no concrete plans to invest in it. “As the system gets more distributed, [utilities] do need a way to have visibility and to manage that system so that they can be the provider of last resort,” DeCotis said. Therefore, DERMS technology will continue to become more and more important as DERs are added to the grid.
