Developments and Trends in the US Energy Sector

In the latest episode of Ignite, Noha Sidhom, CIO at Viribus Fund, LP, discusses trends and developments in the U.S. energy sector. Noha explains why the shift toward renewable sources is only part of the equation and that a deep focus on developing and investing in energy infrastructure is required to enable the transition.

Key highlights of the conversation include:

• How the rise in more dramatic weather events (i.e., polar vortex, bomb cyclone, winter storm Elliott) is affecting the energy sector
• Confirmation that states are moving toward renewables
• Balancing technology innovation with managing consumers' access to energy (e.g., electric car charging stations)
• Why improving the grid infrastructure and technology are paramount to a successful energy transition
