Texas RE: Evolving Grid Workshop

O’Melveny partner Katie Coleman was a guest speaker at Texas RE's Evolving Grid Workshop. Coleman’s panel titled “Large Loads” addressed the increasing demand for growth across North America. 
 
“The LTRA projects demand growth to increase across North America over the next ten years, particularly as large new commercial and industrial loads interconnect to the BPS. Texas RE’s Reliability Performance and Regional Risk Assessment also identified the disorganized integration of large loads as a specific risk for the Texas Interconnection for the first time. This panel will discuss the unique challenges presented by the rapid growth of these types of large loads, the implications to forecasting and planning, and proposed solutions to help maintain grid reliability.”

Coleman is the Managing Partner of O’Melveny’s Austin office and handles complex energy transactions, regulatory policy matters, and administrative litigation, with a focus on electricity. Recognized for her deep knowledge of the electricity market in Texas, Katie works with a wide range of businesses to navigate regulatory requirements in developing new facilities, buying or selling energy assets, structuring energy supply agreements, and managing energy costs.
