Great episode on the latest Energy Gang Podcast Ed Crooks Wood Mackenzie – so many punch the air moments when it came to their analysis of the need for more Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and Virtual Power Plants (VPPs). We love to hear it! Here are some of the WattCarbon team’s top outtakes from the conversation: 💬“I think demand management is such a potential resource because we haven’t really tried it. We really just haven’t put any effort into this.” –Samantha Gross, The Brookings Institution. 💬“If it’s cheaper and simpler, I think people will do it.” –Samantha 💬“I think if we had a really – what I call democratized – a distributed system – maybe we really could get there and maybe demand management could make a really big difference… That’s my utopian view of where we go in the future.” –Amy Myers-Jaffe, NYU’s Energy, Climate Justice and Sustainability Lab. 🎧Listen here: https://lnkd.in/gJrSWFSv #cleanenergy #energytransition #climatepodcast
