In this episode of Energy Unplugged, we are thrilled to welcome Tyler Norris, James B. Duke Fellow at Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment. Tyler joins our Managing Director for North America, Oliver Kerr, to discuss the interconnection processes within U.S. power markets.

Tyler's PhD research at Duke University focuses on electric power systems. His background includes roles as VP of Development at Cypress Creek Renewables, Director at S&P Global Platts, and Special Advisor for Tech-to-Market at the U.S. Department of Energy. Tyler has also served as an expert witness in multiple utility commission proceedings, with his insights featuring in prominent publications such as The New York Times and Foreign Affairs.

Key topics in this episode include:

• What are interconnection processes, and why are these increasingly relevant in the US?
