Nat Bullard of Halcyon introduces you to "Nameplate," the new podcast that takes you inside the minds and lives of some of the world's most powerful people - the CEOs behind energy companies like…
Nat BullardHost
What if I told you about an industry that did five hundred and seventy-seven billion dollars of revenue in the last twelve months, that invests about a quarter trillion dollars a year in new property and plant and equipment, and that has more than a hundred and sixty million customers just in the United States? What if I also told you that you are probably one of those customers? In fact, you're almost certainly one of those customers.
And what if I told you that that industry is becoming one of the most consequential in the United States, even for something that's already a century old, in fact, in some cases even older.
And the reason that we're here to talk today is because not just is the sector itself important, the people who run it are very important.
If you think that you don't know much about the business, I guarantee you, you know even less about the people who run what are becoming the most consequential industries in the United States.
Nameplate is coming together for this specific reason, to talk just to the people that run these companies, the electric power utilities of the United States.
It's presented by Halcyon, and we're gonna be bringing you these conversations that you really haven't heard anywhere else.
In-depth, detailed, candid, and very thorough in looking at not just where these companies have come from, but where they're going.
And also looking not just at where the executives themselves sit today, but how they got there and how they see the future.
We're gonna hear from the likes of people like Southern California Edison and Edison International or ComEd in the Chicago area.
And you're gonna find out about the kind of backgrounds of people that run these companies.
But all of them are stewards of running companies that have been around, in some cases, for a century or more and will probably be around for another century and be right at the heart of addressing a whole bunch of new challenges and also things that, again, started before us and will go on after us.
They're here to both power up the build of artificial intelligence in the United States, but also to combat wildfires, to help respond to extreme heat, but also to provide energy for a world that is continuing to electrify.
