Scaling Energy Infrastructure and Interagency Coordination

While many view the roadside right-of-way (ROW) as a scenic backdrop to a long commute or road trip, The Ray envisions this vast network of public land as the nation's most strategic energy corridor to accelerate production and meet demand. We see the future of the ROW as corridors of commerce: a land-use solution for all types of energy infrastructure that will address the nation’s exponential growth in electricity demand while promoting affordability by colocating transmission lines along our highways. To expedite this future in which the modern U.S. grid is developed within the transportation ROW, The Ray is promoting collaborative state governance to stack resources and unlock the potential of integrating energy and mobility.
