Ep.19 "Enchanted" grid resiliency solutions

This very special episode of Dam! features Thomas McAndrew, founder, president, and CEO of Enchanted Rock, who flew in from Texas to join us in studio with his good friend Kurt Miller, executive director here at Northwest RiverPartners. We discuss the various microgrid solutions that Enchanted Rock provides, the benefits of renewable natural gas and how it works (at a fifth grade-ish level), the challenges the grid faces and what solutions might help us get out of the woods, and we get a double dose of life advice.
