The GT Power Hour: Episode 15 (Chatterjee, Part Deux: A Nation Still Calls)

In which we once again subject FERC Commissioner Neil Chatterjee to the now-infamous Power Hour gauntlet for our one-year anniversary to sift through the fallout of an historic election, discuss the backlash he received for pushing the policy envelope and prognosticate on the state of affairs when this new administration’s term concludes.
In the aftermath of tectonic shifts to the landscape and now unencumbered by the confines of the chairmanship, our guest’s rules of engagement have changed, and nothing escapes his crosshairs as we sweep the theater of operations, from the “Chevron deference” doctrine and the Jones Act to carbon pricing, his future in public service, his former boss Sen. Mitch McConnell, Tom Brady and USA Rugby.
In a world on the brink of an energy revolution… with incendiary ideological conflict spilling into the halls of power and division at the highest levels… one man stands unbowed, ready to bridge the divide. Don’t miss our talk with him!

The GT Power Hour: Episode 14 (What Would Cheryl Do?: The Game Show)

In which we pressure Cheryl LaFleur, the former-FERC commissioner and current distinguished visiting fellow at Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy, for hot takes on her fields of expertise – specifically the ones where her beloved New England Patriots are playing. Hustling as efficiently as a Tom Brady two-minute drill, we also go deep into the nuances of carbon pricing, how annoying fellow former-FERC Commissioner Rob Powelson was, the importance of not imputing bad intent from colleagues, maintaining FERC/state relationships, ensuring someone is responsible for and authorized to maintain reliability (we’re looking at you, California…), the ongoing transition to the grid of the future, being put in “the odd position of trying to explain climate skepticism” and the idyllic atmosphere for a dirty vodka martini. Don’t miss a minute!
