August 11 Meeting Review

We had a

very good meeting on Thursday, August 11 with Jack Sahl, Ph.D. Director, Environment and Resource Sustainability at Southern California Edison. Here are some of the highlights.

• Per capita use of power has stayed relatively the same since the 1970s.
• Technology is so much better with vehicles than even five years ago
• End to end life cycle assessments help SCE prioritize. Conducting these assessments will be one of the most fun professions of the future.
• As citizens and interested persons in renewables and power, we must get involved in the PUC proceedings.
• SCE is focusing on the following areas in the near future: Renewables and Storage Integration, Grid Control and Asset Optimization, Workforce Effectiveness, Smart Metering, and Energy Smart Customer Solutions
