Strategic Importance
“…it's clear that the power grid needs an overhaul. It needs to be
modernized. As we go into an exciting new period of American
history, we want the most modern electricity grid for our people… we need more investment; we need
research and development…”President BushSeptember 2003
“When the lights go out, modern life as we know it grinds to a sudden halt.
Transportation is interrupted, communications fail, water systems
shut down, factory work is disrupted, food spoils, businesses lose money, and people are inconvenienced and
even endangered. ”
Secretary AbrahamApril 2004
