The GT Power Hour: Episode 20 (Glick 2: A Change Is Gonna Come... No Really, Like Now)
When we booked the chairman for this interview, we had no idea how definitive and candid he'd be on so many topics... If you're at all interested in keeping track of developments at FERC, this is required listening.
The GT Power Hour: Episode 20 (Glick 2: A Change Is Gonna Come... No Really, Like Now)
In which we take a second crack at recently appointed FERC Chairman Rich Glick as he settles into his new role, and he is very clear in setting his agenda: changes are coming - and some are already here. Less than three months into his leadership, Glick’s FERC has already announced more than a dozen major changes and initiatives, some of which touch on hot-button issues - like system reliability and resource adequacy in relation to climate change - and others that focus squarely on them, such as creating a new senior-level commission position to address environmental justice and opening an Office of Public Participation. From PJM’s minimum offer-price rule (MOPR) to the standards for evaluating proposals for natural-gas pipelines to how power generators are compensated and whether capacity markets are essential, the chairman goes on to lay out his vision and plans going forward, as well as expected timelines. We also discuss his beloved New York Mets, his abysmal record in picking this year’s March Madness winners and his expectations on energy-related legislation coming out of Congress this session. Shorter than many of our episodes, let’s just call this one “highly concentrated” and well worth the time!
