  In Episode 2 of On The Grid: Humanizing Affordability, Jason Rodriguez sits down with Anissa Rodriguez Dickerman, CEO of Pecan Street, to explore how utilities can rethink affordability by looking beyond simply building more infrastructure. From EVs and smart thermostats to batteries and water heaters, Anissa discusses the untapped flexibility already inside customers’ homes and how better data can help turn those resources into value for both the grid and the people paying the bill. The conversation also explores why affordability should be measured by more than the price of electricity, and what Anissa calls “the cost of living well.”
