The energy grid is facing a challenge unlike anything we’ve seen before.
Think about this: one Virginia co-op has over 20 GW of demand in its queue. That’s more than the energy demand of New York City. As electrification and data center expansion accelerate, public power and electric co-ops are on the front lines of solving this surge.
Electric cooperatives and public utilities are facing a wave of electrification, data center load, and manufacturing demand that rivals the size of major cities. That’s what major power providers are up against — but they’re not backing down.
This Tactical Tuesday episode is your front-row seat to a high-stakes, high-impact conversation hosted by Sheri Givens, CEO of SEPA. She’s joined by two utility leaders tackling today’s fastest-growing energy challenges while maintaining reliability, affordability, and equity.
They deliver on active solutions - from smart customer programs to creative tariff structures and innovative infrastructure partnerships.
Expect to learn:
🔹 How utilities are planning for multi-gigawatt load growth
🔹 What it takes to avoid blackouts during grid stress events
🔹 How equity-driven programs are supporting underserved communities
🔹 Why customer relationships are the new frontier in grid reliability
If you’re in clean energy, this is the episode that explains how the game is changing - and how leaders are rising to meet the moment.
