Where can you listen?

Policy Meets Powerflow is a podcast about the gap between energy policy and the physical reality of the electric grid. Hosted by energy policy professional Rebecca Darrah, the show offers grounded analysis to help listeners navigate a rapidly changing energy landscape.

As the power sector evolves—through decarbonization goals, infrastructure investment, and market reform—policy decisions increasingly shape how electricity is planned, delivered, and regulated. But when those decisions drift too far from operational and regulatory reality, risk accumulates quietly and shows up later as reliability concerns, cost overruns, or compliance challenges.

This podcast explores how upstream policy choices translate into downstream grid constraints, market outcomes, and regulatory exposure. With a focus on electric power systems Policy Meets Powerflow offers a non-partisan, practical look at regulation, power markets, and system risk for professionals who want to understand how the grid actually works.

This show is for utility professionals, energy developers, policymakers, and anyone who wants a clearer view of how policy decisions become megawatts, reliability outcomes, and real-world consequences.
