The Energy of Every Day.

[EEI @Edison_Electric]

Electricity powers nearly every moment of our lives—from the lights and devices in our homes to the hospitals, schools, and businesses our communities depend on.

Behind that power are America's electric companies. Governed by clear standards, accountable to our communities, and committed to our customers, we are working closely together to safely, responsibly, and reliably provide the energy of every day.

News: A new analysis by Concentric Energy Advisors highlights the U.S. electric grid's essential role as a high-value national asset supporting our economy and national security. The grid remains 99.95% reliable thanks to critical investments in resilience, transmission modernization, and expanded system capacity.

America's electric companies are projected to invest $239 billion this year alone in the infrastructure needed to increase grid reliability and help keep electricity as affordable as possible.

#ElectricPerspectives: What to Know About Permitting Reform From the @POLITICO Energy Summit

At the EEI-sponsored summit last week, lawmakers, business leaders, and Administration officials agreed cutting bureaucratic red tape is critical to strengthening grid resilience and delivering reliable, affordable energy.

More specifically:

*Permitting Reform Will Help Customers: Regulatory delays add up to 25% to project costs. Permitting reform removes this bureaucratic tax paid by customers.
*Red Tape Hampers American Competitiveness: Speed-to-power is vital. The U.S. risks losing its competitive edge to rivals if red tape constrains infrastructure buildout.
*Now Is the Time for Action in Washington: Bipartisan momentum in Washington is high, with leaders from both sides pushing to get a durable permitting package to the President’s desk this year.

The bottom line? To lower costs and power the economy, we need to get more steel in the ground and electrons on the grid.

How do you prepare an energy grid for the @FIFAcom World Cup?

@CenterPoint Energy’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Jesus Soto recently told @insider_energy that “Preparing for seven World Cup matches is like preparing for seven Super Bowls.” 🏈⚽️

With seven matches scheduled in Houston between June 14 and July 4, CenterPoint Energy is operating at a heightened readiness posture to ensure seamless, reliable power.

EEI was honored to co-host the @FBI Cyber Division’s 2026 In-House Cyber Counsel Summit, bringing together top lawyers from across the country with a shared focus on cyber defenses for critical infrastructure. 

Cyber security is national security.  EEI is proud to connect the people and foster the partnerships that help secure our grid and nation.

As EEI President & CEO Drew Maloney wrote in a @POLITICO op-ed, the energy grid is one of America’s three great infrastructure innovations—alongside the railroad and the federal highway system. Check out the full op-ed here: https://t.co/efwvRjlQ7E

[EEI @Edison_Electric]

ICYMI: At today's @politico Energy Summit, EEI President and CEO Drew Maloney explained why siting and permitting reform is so important for every American:

“Permitting reform is about affordability and customer solutions, and we really have the opportunity... If you look at the cost imposed by the regulatory structure that we have right now in the United States, up to 25 percent of the project cost is regulatory bureaucratic red tape, and the customer has to pay that, and that's unacceptable... Ultimately if we want to talk about affordability and what the federal government can do to help lower the cost of power bills, do permitting reform. I'm optimistic we'll get there.”

EEI Vice Chair Drew Marsh, chair and CEO of @Entergy, also participated in the summit—watch highlights from his and Maloney’s discussions on why continued, large-scale investment in the energy grid is essential to maintaining reliability, supporting economic growth, and delivering the energy of every day: https://t.co/49UMbl2mal

On the #EEI2026 conference floor, @apsFYI Senior Predictive Maintenance Technician Jaryd Burt broke down how "Spot" the robot dog and advanced drones are protecting crews in hazardous areas.

By identifying grid issues proactively rather than reactively, APS is driving major operational efficiencies and cost savings to help keep energy affordable for customers.

Press play to watch Spot in action!

@FERC Commissioner @LaCerteDA outlined the regulatory path forward for strengthening America's energy infrastructure at #EEI2026:

"We're at a place in FERC where we're working on so many issues that have broad consensus. ... It's important to be open to all perspectives as we move forward. That will build trust and buy-in across the aisle... We'll only get [to energy dominance] if we work together and drive affordability at the center."

[EEI @Edison_Electric]

Alphabet and @Google President & CIO Ruth Porat spoke at #EEI2026 about building the AI economy responsibly through strong utility and community partnerships:

"Our view is that it's critical that we are working with all of our partners to deliver AI's upside responsibly. At Google, that means, when we show up to build, we are investing to add to energy capacity. We are investing with our partners to protect energy affordability."

[Governor Brian P. Kemp @GovKemp]

Great to join @BloombergTV today to discuss what Georgia is doing to stay ahead of the growing power demand that comes with a successful economy.

We’ve been proactive to make sure we can meet the needs of hardworking Georgians and job creators, all while keeping costs low.
