The political focus is heavily centered on the stability and security of supply of the energy system. The speaker firmly supports Bill 556, which enhances transparency through a fixed connection fee and incentivizes the establishment of dispatchable capacity via a grid underutilization charge. This approach is clearly policy- and results-driven, highlighting the improved clarity of the investment environment and the increased stability of the electricity system.

The speaker is strongly opposed to attempts by opponents to inflate the costs associated with developing renewables, labeling this phenomenon "mental inflation."
