Episode 121
Thursday, 18 December, 2025
Electric companies across the country are finding innovative ways to connect large customers like data centers while delivering clear benefits to the grid and existing customers. EEI President and CEO Drew Maloney opens the episode by highlighting how electric companies are collaborating with data centers and hyperscalers to support innovation and ensure these large customers pay their fair share of America’s grid. Then, Entergy Mississippi President and CEO Haley Fisackerly and Amazon Web Services (AWS) Head of Energy and Water for the Americas Brandon Oyer discuss how electric companies and large-load customers like Amazon are working together to deliver clear benefits to the grid and existing customers while strengthening reliability. The episode also highlights a new Energy and Environmental Economics (E3) study examining electricity rate design and tariffs for large loads like data centers, based on real-world case studies from Amazon’s partnerships with electric companies including Entergy Mississippi.
