For one, we must\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/blog\/2014\/04\/21\/people-not-new-power-plants-are-driving-clean-energy-future\">dynamically manage demand<\/a>\u00a0on the grid.<\/p>\n<p>The more that we can manage demand so that the use of energy becomes more efficient, the more it will help on price, resiliency, climate change. It will create kind of the democratization of energy that everyone\u2019s talking about.<\/p>\n<p>So rather than thinking of demand as the last resource that we manage on the grid, the idea of load response \u2013 where you wait until the peak days and then you cut off load \u2013 the idea is really around how you use demand more efficiently. And to do that you really need to change the regulatory construct.<\/p>\n<p>Under the new model, instead of distribution utilities being indifferent to energy efficiency or harmed by it, you reward them economically as they make the system more efficient &#8211; just as you would any other industry.<\/p>\n<p><b>How can we scale up clean energy resources, such as solar, wind, microgrids, storage, demand response?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>To me it goes back to the fundamentals of energy. The most efficient way we can manage energy is to create a very efficient usage profile. If you take a look at our system today, we operate at best in the low 50\u2019s in terms of the usage rate.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/38\/files\/2014\/09\/az_headshot_hi-res_062014.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-8285\" alt=\"az_headshot_hi res_062014\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/38\/files\/2014\/09\/az_headshot_hi-res_062014-731x1024.jpg\" width=\"227\" height=\"318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/38\/files\/2014\/09\/az_headshot_hi-res_062014-731x1024.jpg 731w, https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/38\/files\/2014\/09\/az_headshot_hi-res_062014-214x300.jpg 214w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 227px) 100vw, 227px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The simple analogy I always draw is that if a manufacturer was operating in a way where it only produced about 50-60 percent of the time, the company would be shut down.<\/p>\n<p>With demand response, you\u2019re managing demand locally and maximizing the value of distributed clean energy resources. So if the wind blows best at night or in the evening, let\u2019s consume energy by using distributed resources, storage &#8211; things like that &#8211; during the day so that we\u2019re matching wind generation when it\u2019s available. That\u2019s how it creates environmental value.<\/p>\n<p>We believe very strongly that with the right price signals and the right regulatory framework, we can maximize the value of renewables in a much more efficient way. That\u2019s really the focus of the commission I serve on, as well as of the administration.<\/p>\n<p><b>In the end, what excites you most about your work?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>I started out as a lawyer, working for the Attorney General\u2019s office in Minnesota where I was assigned to represent the state in utility matters. I learned in that job that the intersection of public utility regulation \u2013 whether the telecoms scene, water, gas, or electric \u2013 it all has a profound\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/what-smart-grid-doing-american-energy\">impact on the quality of life<\/a>\u00a0of individuals, families, and on the economic strength of the state.<\/p>\n<p>There are also exciting changes happening in the leadership of utilities. The process itself of moving to a senior role in a utility still tends to favor people who have been in a position for a long time, but I think this is starting to change. What\u2019s heartwarming today is when I go to meetings and you often see that the chairs of commissions or leaders at the regulatory agencies are women, and I think this is having an interesting output on how we\u2019re changing the industry.<\/p>\n<p><b>Postscript thoughts: Are women driving change?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Zibelman\u2019s final words about how women may be changing the utility business struck a chord with me.<\/p>\n<p>The industry has been dominated by men for most of its lifespan, but is it possible that new and female utility leaders such as Audrey are helping us to actively pursue more diverse &#8211; even radical &#8211; ideas such as fundamentally overhauling a century-old utility business model?<\/p>\n<p>This is quite possibly a quintessential detail that the clean energy revolution has been missing until now \u2013 and I know how Audrey feels about details.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it is worthwhile to roll up your sleeves and really get into the details,&#8221; she told me, &#8220;and not leave that to other people, because it\u2019s the people who understand the details who tend to excel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>This post originally appeared on our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/blog\/2014\/09\/30\/her-plan-could-make-low-carbon-energy-economy-reality\">EDF Voices blog<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the fifth in a series of posts about leading women in the power, environmental science, advocacy, policy, and business sectors.
