U.S. Rep. Peter Welch recently announced a $450,000 federal grant for Vermont Law School’s Institute for Energy and the Environment to conduct smart-grid research and analysis aimed at updating the U.S. power grid.
The Department of Energy grant, which was secured by Welch, will strengthen the Institute’s reputation as a national leader in smart-grid implementation standards and its efforts to address the reliability, cost and environmental impacts of the nation’s energy policy.
