NPM Interconnections – Episode 50: Justin Pugh

October 31, 2022

FTI Consulting’s Justin Pugh, Senior Managing Director, sits down with NPM Managing Editor, Jon Berke to highlight some of the major incentives introduced in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 and in particular how he envisions a domestic supply chain growing under the IRA. Justin also discusses how the ongoing interconnection logjam could be impacted by the accelerated build out of solar and wind under the legislation. He goes on to review the ITC tax credit included for standalone storage and how it presents a buffer of sorts as a non-wire alternative generation source given the lack of transmission incentives.
