Utilities are known for spending, but not always where it counts. In fact, hyperscalers in Big Tech outspend utilities by 10x when it comes to critical R&D. So as we move into the data center-dominated future, how will utilities learn to spend on innovation and navigate challenges from scope to timeline to transparency? Our mission on today's episode is to figure that out. We're bringing in three venerated experts from across the industry: Erik Helland, Commissioner at the Iowa Utility Commission; Jason Wild, CEO of Wild Innovation & Strategy Excellence; and Mike Smith, Principal, KLN Group. Together, these three paint an optimistic (and realistic) picture of where utilities can bend to avoid breaking as the battle for ownership of this AI-driven future heats up. A handful of key ideas from this conversation loaded with real-world utility examples? “If you're not failing, you're not trying hard enough,” Erik says. Jason explains the role of human behavior in tech adaptation. Mike walks through the juxtaposition of utilities' intense focus on operational excellence and their need to innovate—which can sometimes get messy. By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with a deeper understanding of the utility innovation bias, plus key learnings about the roles all of us can play, from regulators to utility leaders to ratepayers. Innovation doesn't have to be a scary word. We're giving it a new definition today on Piloting the Future.

On this episode, I'm joined by Kristina Tucker, the longtime Minister of Enlightenment at The Republic of Tea.   We explore the brand's 30-year journey from launching the first certified Organic tea in 2003 to piloting new Regenerative Organic Certified® SKUs today. Kristina shares how the company sources over 400 teas and herbs from more than 80 growing regions, and what it takes to balance innovation, ingredient integrity, and supply chain complexity at scale.   We dive into how regenerative fits into their historical sourcing evolution — from organic to biodynamic to ROC™ — and why the brand is taking a thoughtful, "wait and learn" approach to rolling out regenerative products across their massive catalog.   You'll also hear about the product, packaging, and business decisions that have contributed to their success and longevity in the tea category, their super unique fax-based origin story, and their commitment to supporting smallholder farmers across the globe.   So pour yourself something to sip on and get ready to learn about this Republic and its Ministers, Ambassadors, Citizens, and Embassies.   Episode Highlights:  

Move fast and break things? Not at utilities. More like move slowly and keep the lights on. Utilities have a reputation for being slow to innovate and adapt. Where does that come from? Well…they're highly regulated, they're used to financing investments with a guaranteed rate of return, and they're on the hook for BIG bills if innovation goes south. All those realities contribute to the capital bias in energy—the inefficient phenomenon in which traditionally regulated utilities are incentivized to favor capital-intensive investments over cost-effective operational expenses (read: tech advancements). Simply put? More trillion-dollar poles and lines, fewer million-dollar demand response programs, for example. It's not a permanent problem, though. Utilities can get faster in meeting the demand moment…and today on Piloting the Future, we explore exactly how they're going to keep pace with the hyperscalers outspending them on innovation by leaps and bounds. Today's guests: Dr. Elizabeth Cook, VP of Technical Strategy at AEIC, and Ken Silverstein, Senior Contributor at Forbes. They join Kim and Lee in a deeply insightful, forward-thinking conversation about breaking through gridlock by overcoming this capital bias to determine who will own the power future: utilities...or Big Tech? Don't miss this first episode of our Gridlocked miniseries—building the grid of the future requires taking some risks…safely. And this week, we're exploring how that becomes possible.

What does it actually look like to implement a GenAI solution in a Medical Information department? What are the risks? The benefits? And what should others learn from those who've already tested the waters? In today's "Elevate" episode, our speaker panel, lead by Jennifer Riggins and Steve Casey of the MAPS Digital Strategy FAWG, dives into a topic at the cutting edge of medical information: the use of Generative AI for content creation.

Interview with Shaun Bunn, Managing Director of Empire Metals Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/empire-metals-loneee-colossal-titanium-discovery-set-to-revolutionise-global-supply-6918Recording date: 21st August 2025Empire Metals (LON:EEE) is rapidly developing its Pitfield Titanium project in Western Australia, positioning itself as a potential disruptor in the global titanium industry. The company has achieved a significant technical breakthrough by producing titanium dioxide at 99.25% purity with minimal contaminants, demonstrating the exceptional quality of its ore body without even having a mineral resource estimate in place.Managing Director Shaun Bunn recently outlined the company's strategic progress, highlighting how Pitfield's unique anatase-rich ore offers superior processing economics compared to traditional ilmenite operations. "The anatase doesn't need as much acid to digest as ilmenite. There's no iron to break down and no disposal issues relating to the disposal of that iron," Bunn explained, emphasizing the environmental and cost advantages.Following completion of their largest drilling program to date—180 drill holes totaling 10,000 meters at the Thomas Prospect—Empire Metals expects to release its maiden mineral resource estimate by early Q4 2025. The focused drilling approach prioritized high-confidence resource blocks that can support immediate mine planning, with recent results delivering grades of seven to eight percent.The project's strategic advantages extend beyond ore quality. Located in Western Australia's tier-one mining jurisdiction, Pitfield benefits from proximity to infrastructure, renewable energy access, and world-class technical expertise. The company has raised £4 million from strategic investors to fund development through critical phases including metallurgical testing and early piloting operations planned for 2026.Empire Metals' product optionality represents a key differentiator, enabling production of various titanium products from traditional pigments to high-value metal precursors for aerospace and defense applications. "The optionality that we can get from this ore body is amazing," Bunn noted, positioning the company to serve multiple high-value market segments while benefiting from government support for critical minerals development in Australia.View Empire Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/empire-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

How are utilities supposed to balance 1) strategic grid planning with 2) strong stewardship of the tree canopy we all rely on? It requires a new approach to vegetation management—one rooted in global information sharing that transcends competitive bounds. That's what today's guests—Dennis Fallon, Executive Director of the Utility Arborist Association, and Justin McQuistan, Corporate Partnerships Manager at the Arbor Day Foundation—are building. And this week, Kim & Lee getting the inside scoop on how they're doing it. Because trees and vegetation certainly can work in favor of utilities…it's just about the right tree in the right place. This episode serves as a roadmap for utility leaders who want to redefine their vegetation management approach to go from reactive to proactive.

Co-Host G. Scott Graham (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/copilot) There's a lot of talk about men leading relationships compared to being henpecked by a dominant woman. But realistically speaking, shouldn't you and the woman of your dreams be co-equals in the relationship? But what does that mean? Do we as men need to back off from masculinity in order to make that happen? Well, in my humble estimation, my first-time guest Scott Graham has it all figured out. According to him, the woman in your life should be your co-pilot. When widowed after a 20-year relationship, that's what he asked for, and that's what he got. So then, what does such a relationship with your female "co-pilot" look like? And interestingly enough, what's Scott's strategy for never, ever needing couple's counseling? How can we as men collaborate with our wives and girlfriends without her wearing in the pants in the relationship? What communications styles should we be aware of and practice in a relationship with a woman? How does relational co-piloting fly in the face of (perhaps literally?) the trend toward transactional relationships? What are the two things all co-piloting couples must agree on? Can a man and a woman be dysfunctional in the same weird or toxic way and somehow be great co-pilots together because of it...and have a relatively happy relationship? Yes, starting next week there will be a VIDEO version for each weekly full episode.

Artificial Intelligence promises to revolutionize the utility industry, from predicting outages to integrating distributed energy resources. But between headlines and hype, a dangerous pattern is emerging: AI fatigue. Too many pilots, too many proof-of-concepts, and not enough actual results. Utilities risk getting lost chasing the “next shiny object” instead of tackling the biggest, most urgent operational challenges staring them in the face. In this episode, we're joined by Kim Getgen, Founder & CEO of InnovationForce, who has made it her mission to cut through the noise and help utilities focus. Kim's team has analyzed more than 600 grid modernization plans to identify critical challenges hidden in plain sight — and she's on a mission to help utilities match those challenges with real, utility-grade solutions. If you care about real progress — not just buzzwords — this is an episode you won't want to miss. And if you're pulled in by Kim's inspired perspective on innovation, you can catch more on the ‘Piloting the Future' podcast she hosts, part of the Energy Central podcast network.

Tackling energy's biggest problems requires true innovators to start somewhere—small solutions turn into enormous ones, faster than you might think. This week on Piloting the Future, hosts Kim Getgen and Lee Krevat hear from David Burchfield, Cofounder of BuildingLens, and Katherine Juengel, Green Cities Industry Liaison at Prosper Portland, about the way Portland is supporting energy innovation—and making community a cornerstone of power programs—one step at a time. We cover distributed energy (the lowest hanging fruit for innovators, as our guests put it), the role of risk taking for utilities that truly want to think for the future, and how to work backwards from the customer to create solutions worth adopting—along with so much more. Listen in for an up-close look at how Portland and the innovators who call it home are proving that transformation is just one relationship away.

HR leaders are feeling the squeeze.  With limited resources and growing pressure to improve engagement, performance, and retention, many are tasked with building manager support systems from scratch, often without the time or tools to do it effectively. In this episode, Morgan Webb, Senior Strategic Advisor at 15Five, and Yen Tan, Evangelist, Expansion & Manager Products at 15Five, share how HR can take a more focused and sustainable approach to manager enablement. They discuss why blanket training programs rarely work, how to use data to identify where support is needed most, and why piloting and iterating can drive better results than aiming for perfection. This conversation guides HR teams ready to stop doing it all and start doing what works.

The leaders at Portland General Electric knew they had a choice: Embrace innovative ideas…or get left behind. They chose the former—and now, PGE is charting a new path for scaled utilities to embrace technology, welcome innovation, and ask hard questions to ensure their customers get energy that's reliable, efficient, and clean, day in and day out. Today on Piloting the Future, hosts Kim Getgen and Lee Krevat get the full rundown on PGE's recent Innovation Impact Report from Larry Bekkedahl, Senior VP of Advanced Energy Delivery at PGE, and Allegra Hodges, Head of Strategic Innovation at PGE. Larry and Allegra explain PGE's efforts to build a stronger grid, how strong process can empower innovation, the best strategies for finding consensus in a crowded tech ecosystem…and, of course, where AI fits into all this. PGE completed the first long-distance transmission of electricity in the US in 1889—and they haven't stopped innovating since. Give this episode a listen to understand how embracing the future became part of a major utility's culture. Want to check out PGE's Innovation Impact Report?

People with aphasia can have problems understanding or using numbers in everyday life - known as functional numeracy difficulties. However, testing this is hard because there are limited published assessments for functional numeracy difficulties for people with aphasia. This study aimed to explore, validate and pilot a wide-ranging, aphasia-friendly functional numeracy assessment to investigate how functional numeracy is impacted by aphasia severity and time pressure demands, and to explore predictors of PWA's functional numeracy.The paper is:Which blueberries are better value?

*FAN MAIL: Text Greg your comments!Flight instructing offers some of the most rewarding flying there is. We experience the joy of fulfilling our students' dreams of flight, become better pilots ourselves in the process, and develop lifelong friendships with many of those we teach. But among hours and hours of routine teaching and flying, there are occasional hard lessons, too, most often unanticipated. And those hard lessons are generally even more eye-opening and profound for us instructors than for our students. Above all, we learn that while maintaining a relaxed cockpit learning environment, we must never become complacent. Okay, everyone, hop aboard my Flying Carpet, buckle into the pilot's seat, and prepare for takeoff on Flight Number 36, “Bowling Alley Hot Dogs.” Support the showhttps://gregbrownflyingcarpet.com/podcast/https://www.facebook.com/GregBrownFlyingCarpet/https://www.instagram.com/gregbrownflyingcarpet/
