Vice President Joe Biden recently spoke in Philadelphia to announce the release of the Quadrennial Energy Review (QER). According to a White House fact sheet, “the QER is envisioned as a focused, actionable document designed  to  provide  policymakers, industry, investors, and other stakeholders with unbiased data and analysis on energy challenges, needs, requirements, and barriers that will inform a range of policy options, including legislation.” The first installment of the QER examines how to modernize our nation’s energy infrastructure and is primarily focused on energy transmission, storage, and distribution (TS&D), the networks of pipelines, wires, storage, waterways and railroads. Each chapter provides recommendations to improve or remedy the issues discussed. At 347 pages, the QER provides an in-depth overview of the energy issues impacting our nation. If you are not interested in all of the topics or simply want to save some memory space, the Review’s homepage provides an individual PDF of each chapter. Here is a listing of the chapters:

Ensuring the Resilience, Reliability, Safety, and Security of TS&D Infrastructure

Modernizing the Electric Grid

Modernizing U.S. Energy Security Infrastructures in a Changing Global Marketplace

Improving Shared Transport Infrastructures

Integrating North American Energy Markets

Addressing Environmental Aspects of TS&D Infrastructure
