Everyone is talking about the need for more electricity. AI. Data centers. Manufacturing. Grid expansion. But almost nobody is talking about the equipment required to actually build the infrastructure that delivers that power. From transformers and substations to steam turbine generators and switchgear, critical equipment shortages and long lead times are becoming a growing challenge across the power sector. In this episode, Russ explains why some energy projects are taking longer than expected, what's creating these bottlenecks, and why infrastructure may be one of the biggest challenges facing the future of electricity. Because generating power is only part of the equation. Delivering it is what matters. #PowerGrid #Energy #Electricity #Infrastructure #Transformers #DataCenters #Utilities #PowerGeneration #CleanEnergy #GridModernization
