Meredith Angwin, the author of this Substack, is the author of Shorting the Grid: the Hidden Fragility of Our Electric Grid. She describes the rules and politics that rule our grid, and has spoken to state legislatures, business groups and podcast hosts about legislative remedies for the fragility of our grids. In this substack, she plans to keep people up to date on the constant new rules of the grid operators. And how the rules usually don’t help the grid to be more reliable.
