    Episode 0105 - The Energy Independence Playbook for the Enterprise

    Energy independence isn’t about going off-grid. It’s about taking control. In this episode of Wired for Power, Dustin Markowski and Amorah Sandberg lay out a practical blueprint for enterprise organizations looking to reduce grid reliance, stabilize energy costs, and future-proof operations. With aging grid infrastructure, rising electrification demand, and billions required for modernization, enterprises can no longer afford to treat energy as a passive utility expense. We break down the distributed power model—on-site solar, battery storage, intelligent energy management systems, and microgrid strategies—and explain how these tools transform energy from an unpredictable liability into a strategic asset. You’ll learn: What “energy independence” really means for large organizationsWhy grid dependency is becoming a financial and operational riskHow to structure projects for resiliency and long-term ROIThe financial advantages of moving from volatile OpEx to controlled infrastructure assetsA step-by-step roadmap for getting started Whether you’re a CFO, ESG leader, facilities executive, or enterprise energy partner, this episode provides the strategic framework to help your organization take control of its energy future.

    Episode 0104 - The Solar Scams That Hurt Us All

    Solar should be one of the smartest investments a business can make—but for too many people, it’s become a cautionary tale. In this episode of Wired for Power, Dustin Markowski (CEO of Power) and Amorah Sandberg (CRO of Power) call out the uncomfortable truth about the solar industry: overpromised savings, misleading financing, disappearing contractors, and installs that never should have passed inspection. We break down the most common solar scams hurting business owners today—and why these bad practices don’t just damage customers, they damage the entire industry. We also explain why recent policy shifts are a net positive, forcing accountability and raising the bar for who should be in this business. Most importantly, we reframe the real reason solar matters. This isn’t just about clean energy—it’s about fixing America’s power delivery problem by generating energy where it’s actually used. If you’re a business owner considering solar, a sales professional deciding how you want to build your career, or an operator who believes in doing things the right way, this episode is a must-listen.
