Today, June 1, 2026, Concentric announced the release of a new paper prepared for the Edison Electric Institute (“EEI”) examining the United States electric grid as an important component of national infrastructure and a key contributor to economic activity and national security.
The paper highlights that utilities have continued to invest steadily in grid infrastructure and advanced technologies that improve system performance, optimize the use of existing assets, and deliver cost-effective improvements for customers. It also finds that connecting new large customers to the grid offers a reliable and efficient approach to meeting rising demand and broadens the customer base over which fixed costs are recovered, helping to support affordability for all customers.
