Welcome Sergio Rodriguez, New Expert in the Grid Professionals Community- [an Energy Central Power Perspectives™ Expert Interview]
These days, the generation aspect of the power sector is starting to lose some of the attention to the grid itself. While those outside the industry may often picture power plants or newfound distributed generation as the heart of the utility sector, the grid itself has clearly become both the lifeline (when done right) and the bottleneck (when there are issues). Finding ways to optimize the grid, ensure a constant meeting of supply and demand, and integrating new technologies and innovations is the top priority for utility leaders, and after many years of inertia, grid experts are now making more progress than ever.
At Energy Central, we strive to always ensure our Community Members are kept in the know about the latest developments and connect with the right experts across the sector who can answer questions, collaborate on solutions, and ensure a communal experience where each actor isn't needing to reinvent the wheel. Among the key ways we do that is via our Network of Experts, and so we're excited to welcome to that network someone who is greatly plugged into the latest developments on the grid. Sergio Rodriguez is a Senior System Operator at a New York State utility and he was also recently installed as the latest expert in our Grid Professionals Group.
And to start that process, we welcomed Sergio to our Energy Central Power Perspective 'Welcome New Expert Interview Series."
