Comments from Member Steven Shparber were featured in Law.com regarding the Department of Energy’s proposal to federally standardize how large electricity customers, like AI data centers, connect to the power grid. The proposal marks a major shift that could transform how these energy-intensive facilities come online and interact with the grid, creating both new challenges and opportunities across the industry.

Reflecting on the potential impact, Steven shares, “It’s an exciting development. I think this has the potential to be one of the most significant developments in the power industry over the last several decades, and I think everyone in the industry should pay attention to what occurs here.”
