September 2: Energy Risk - Research in Practice
You can't miss it -- 213 solar panels and a battery the size of a tractor trailer sit alongside one of Duke Energy's electric substations on Charlotte, North Carolina's Highway 51. And that is intentional, said Paige Layne, Duke Energy's corporate communications manager. "We found because the solar panels are out there on one of the busiest highways in Charlotte, people call in and ask us about them."
August 31: Commentary - A Rational Look at the Plans for Moving Forward in the Gulf
Though non-binding, a report released late last week by the Bipartisan Policy Center should provide momentum toward the lifting the deepwater drilling moratorium currently in place in the wake the of the Deepwater Horizon disaster. The BPC was asked by the federal government's National Commission on the BP Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling to review the effect of the moratorium and the response by both industry and the government.

September 7: Energy Risk - Giving the Grid a Break
New York knows the spotlight. But the heat it's now feeling is tied directly to keeping the lights on. Transmission system operators there say that the state's citizens consumed more electricity in July than ever before. New York is not alone. Other regions of the country are also getting tested. It's about how well they are able to meet the energy needs in their areas when the demand for their services is at its pinnacle.
August 30: Energy Risk - Making Waves with Tidal Energy
The first-ever federal license to proceed with a utility-scale tidal energy project in this country has been issued in Oregon. After an extensive permitting process, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has given the thumbs up to Ocean Power Technologies. Smaller such facilities are now underway. But the commercial-scale one that is to be built in Reedsport, Ore. covers a wide array of issues such as the preservation of aquatic resources, water quality and the maintenance of marine life.

July 15: Energy Risk - Consumer Behavior and Electricity Usage
We wanted to step back from the smart grid and its technologies and survey customers and consumers on barriers to changing behavior around energy usage, because -- especially in North America -- utilities are responding to pressures from various stakeholders to reduce use.
June 14: Energy risk - BP's Spillover Effect
The BP oil disaster is spilling over and affecting other fossil-fired fuels as well as the prospects for climate change legislation. While deeply saddened by the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico, environmentalists are using the occasion to ensure that future energy projects get the scrutiny they deserve before such facilities are allowed to operate. And they will have a sympathetic ear both from federal and state regulators as well as the constituencies who are involved. Ironically, though, that strategy will likely cost them a favorable vote this year on climate change.
