How can we ease these bottlenecks and integrate the much-needed clean energy into our system?<br> <br> Find out on The Clean Energy Revolution podcast. I'm back in the host chair with my fabulous co-host,&nbsp;Laura Young, joined by Ruth G. Shaw and&nbsp;Sandy Grace (Vice President, US Policy and Regulatory Strategy, National Grid United States) to discuss the crucial topic of grid connections. Two great conversations!<br> <br> Some of the questions I asked focused on:<br> ✅ &nbsp;What is the process for grid connections?<br> ✅ &nbsp;What are the main&nbsp;challenges surrounding grid connections currently?<br> ✅ What are the key aspects that need to change in order&nbsp;to address challenges&nbsp;and/or to connect more clean energy to the grid?<br> ✅ &nbsp;Is there any reform required eg. in terms of policy/regulation that’s currently restricting the amount of clean energy that could be connected to the grid?<br> <br> Bridging the gap between power generation and energy distribution is essential for achieving our goals. We'll explore innovative solutions and what's being done to get things moving.<br> <br> 🎧&nbsp;<a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3r8KV8LvCmekHMROlOiUM8" target="_blank">Listen on Spotify: The Clean Energy Revolution</a><br> <br> 🎧 Or&nbsp;<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-clean-energy-revolution/id1576670058" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts: The Clean Energy Revolution</a></span></p>
