We are excited to share this Special Edition COBT focused on the impact of the recent dockworkers’ strike and its implications for the energy sector. As we send this out, you may have heard the strike has been suspended. It was and is a fascinating situation… and wait until you meet who we found to discuss the issues. We were lucky enough to connect with Dr. Salvatore Mercogliano, Ph.D., Associate Professor of History at Campbell University. In addition to his role at Campbell, Dr. Mercogliano also serves as an #Adjunct #Professor with the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. Dr. Mercogliano has an extensive background in #shipping and #maritime history, having previously served as a merchant mariner with the U.S. Navy’s Military Sealift Command. He holds a Ph.D. in Military and Naval History from the The University of Alabama and is also the host of “What is Going on With Shipping?” We were thrilled to hear Sal’s unique insights on the dockworkers’ #strike and on the shipping world overall. One strong takeaway we had from the conversation with Sal is that shipping will be getting more expensive over the next decade for a number of reasons. #dockworkers

Many of you have likely noticed, as we have, some of the news coming out of Delaware about certain rulings, the debate around those rulings, and the subsequent debate around actions taken by the legislature to clarify #Delaware #law. As we’ve read about these developments, we were intrigued and turned to the team at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz (WLRK) for their thoughts on these matters. We were extremely pleased to have Ryan McLeod, Partner, and Dan Neff, Partner and Member of the Executive Committee, join us for a far-ranging and intriguing discussion on these issues.

Today, it was an honor to join Ambassador Kay Bailey Hutchinson again at The KBH Energy Center Symposium. Maynard Holt, CEO of Veriten, Dr. Michael E. Webber, Professor, Cockrell School of Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin, and I discussed “what are we NOT thinking about” when it comes to #energy policy in the United States. Topics like data center load growth, the need for permitting, and our next generation’s excitement to join the electric industry were forefront. As a distinguished advisor and member of the executive council at The University of Texas at Austin’s KBH Energy Center, it’s incredibly rewarding to share our industry’s excitement and all it has in store with our students!
