In case you missed it, below is our video from Tuesday's Green event on Capitol Hill with Congressmen Jay Inslee and Earl Blumenauer, Commissioner Jon Wellinghoff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Kurt Yeager, leader of the Galvin Electricity Initiative, and Reid Detchon, Executive Director for Energy and Climate at the United Nations Foundation.  They discussed the vision for a modernized electric grid and the need for moving away from old, energy-inefficient infrastructure to a more long-term modern, clean, sustainable one.
