Key Quotes:
“There's a lot of customers that need privatization…. I don't think commodity is such a bad word in the sense that at some point, I really see it coming, where, whether it's a brownfield or a greenfield application that you're building for, a port, mine, stadium, what have you, that private network is just like one of the boxes you check.”
“More than one utility in California had to literally shut off the grid. They had to turn people down to make sure that these wires that would, because of wind, knock a wire down and start a fire. So what if that wire broke? And what if, by the time it hit the ground, it knew to turn itself off?”
