The Briefing Room Ep 5: The Annapolis Energy Agenda

In the final episode of The Briefing Room energy series, host Dom Butchko turns the conversation to Annapolis and the broader policy choices shaping Maryland’s energy future. Joined by Delegate David Fraser-Hidalgo, Chair of the House Energy Subcommittee, the episode looks at how rising costs, reliability concerns, new generation needs, grid pressures, and local land-use questions are driving the next phase of state energy policy. The conversation explores what policymakers are trying to solve, what tools are available, how counties fit into the discussion, and what Marylanders should watch as the state moves from major legislative action toward implementation.
