Craig Lewis

Craig Lewis, the Founder and Executive Director of the Clean Coalition, dives into the energy challenges posed by the 'duck curve.' He discusses how local solar and distributed energy resources can effectively flatten this curve, reduce transmission costs, and enhance grid resilience. Craig also challenges traditional views on energy generation, advocating for localized solutions instead of over-investment in transmission infrastructure. With case studies like the Sierra Blanca Microgrid, he highlights the economic and environmental benefits of innovative energy planning.
