Policy wonk at @Sense. Former 3x utility employee. Tweeting about making the #cleanenergyfuture more customer-centric.

Regulators hold a lot of power in encouraging (or discouraging) innovation in the utility sector. Here are my thoughts on how regulators can make smart changes. #CleanEnergy #regulation

An advanced grid requires regulatory innovation https://t.co/df6VtuNWfI via @UtilityDive

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

The "Innovative Grid Deployment Liftoff" report from @ENERGY is a golden compass for regulators. It urges them to comprehensively value and integrate advanced grid solutions as part of core distribution grid investment and planning. YES! https://t.co/BBLLezgPu1

Affordability isn’t just a hot topic in the clean energy transition - it’s an imperative. Here’s my cheeky take on how smart meters can support affordability and accelerate #decarbonization.

Don’t let the yellow flowers behind him fool you - there were no bright spots in the welcome speech from @pwrhungry. The only point I hope resonated with this @NARUC group is the extent to which policy can determine how (and if) things move forward. #narucwinter24

[Sense @Sense]

The @RIDPUC voted unanimously to approve @wearerienergy's Advanced Metering Functionality (#AMF) Business Case. In our latest blog, Sense's Sr. Regulatory Manager @BDyerBK highlights what other states might learn by following #RhodeIsland's path. https://t.co/lGELxxKvQI

Hot sauce insight 5: there are two types of people - those who admire the problem and those who think about the solution. #gridCONNEXT2023

@GeneRodriguesEE bringing the heat - aka his passion for clean energy solutions - before the hot sauce even gets opened. #gridCONNEXT2023

Hot sauce insight 4: potential for grid edge resources is outstanding, but policies not yet in place for utilities to make use of them.

Afternoon session at #gridCONNEXT2023 on @FERC 2222, focused on enabling residential customer participation. @MikeAtSense leading the conversation with a focus on having a real-time and localized grid view.

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

@RepStricklandWA speaking at #gridCONNEXT2023. Pushing the idea that public (including utilities) and private partnerships are key to the clean energy transition. Slow clap!

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

Breakout panel at #gridCONNEXT2023. “Grid modernization requires regulatory modernization” - would love to see utilities able to capitalize software investments being used in place of hardware solutions. @gridwisedc

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

A shared opinion from a panelist - use the data at the grid edge, dispose of it at the grid edge, and only bring data back into the utility if and where it’s needed. This solves the problem of utilities having data they just never use - or can’t get through.

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

First panel at #gridCONNEXT2023 discussing data at the grid edge. Powerful (pun intended) examples of how AMI and utility systems can use market partners to provide meaningful solutions leveraging this data.

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

Congresswoman remarks - the clean energy transition is here and the grid of the future will be built on software. Couldn’t agree more! #cleanenergy #gridCONNEXT2023

[Brandon @BDyerBK]

Kicking off #gridCONNEXT2023 with this year’s theme of Grid Infrastructure: Accelerating Deployment. An exciting group of innovators gathered in the room! #decarbonization
