Team Pennsylvania’s role as a neutral convener and broker allows us to bring together often divergent views working toward a long-term shared vision.

This means that we don’t have the luxury that other states have—where they can provide incentives to vertically integrated utilities to shift their generation capacity. Instead, we have to be more strategic, more inventive, and a lot more careful about making sure we convene the right strategic stakeholders around these questions. </span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">We need to pursue opportunities that make sense for our economy. This has shaped Team Pennsylvania’s focus over the last several years on areas like industrial decarbonization and behind-the-meter power generation for sectors such as data centers and chemical facilities.

You have to take a broader look when thinking about Pennsylvania’s role in the nuclear space.

Returning to the data center conversation, I think that’s the easiest place to touch on where we’ve had conversations or been in rooms where developers have said, “Our plan is to deploy a gigawatt scale of generation capacity with the option or space for permitting additional generation capacity, should future site owners need it.” When you think about that kind of scale, that’s pretty amazing. </span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Now, you want to talk about challenges, too.
