Peggy Smedley and Dominique Meyer, CEO and founder, Looq AI, and Ken Sharpless, vice president, customer experience, Exo, talk about the urgent need for improvement in our infrastructure and energy response strategies. Ken says we are seeing years of utilities trying to keep their existing assets healthy. Dominique says the scale of the U.S. grid is approximately 200 million distribution poles. When you have a natural event that takes out 10 of thousands, you say, “Let’s make it more resilient,” but the scale requires thinking about fundamentals.
They also discuss:
- What resiliency in the grid is and what is required to achieve it.
- How technology can help address the scale of the problem.
- Lessons learned from failure and the next big steps that need to happen.
