120. 'ESCC and the Utility Role in Power Security' with Kevin Wailes, CEO of Lincoln Electric System

In the modern utility landscape, rapid response and thorough follow ups are key when major events occur, and that requires the teaming up of various corners of the industry. To assist in that process, the Electricity Subsector Coordinating Council (ESCC) serves as the primary liaison between the federal government and the electric power industry in preparing for and responding to national-level disasters or threats to critical infrastructure. The ESCC may fly under the radar but the impact of its work surely does not. In this episode of the Energy Central Power Perspectives Podcast, Kevin Wailes, CEO of Lincoln Electric Systems and member of the ESCC joins to discuss the evolution of the ESCC, its priorities, and actions in response to the changing landscape of the power industry. Listen in as Kevin shares with podcast host Jason Price and producer Matt Chester some of the most pressing issues facing power providers today, including cybersecurity and physical security, supply chain issues, and the importance of federal cooperation.
