Energy

Energy is our lifeline —

from heating to home offices to electric vehicles. Marguerite will work to ensure reliable electrical service for Wake County.

To avoid power outages and grow the energy sector, Marguerite proposes:

  • Increasing energy production – both clean and safe.
  • Enhancing cybersecurity to guard against foreign manipulation.
  • Hardening transformers to protect against electromagnetic pulse events.
  • Working with utilities to ensure investment in Wake County electric grid upgrades using federal subsidies.
  • Integrating distributed energy resources into the power grid.

As the Governmental Affairs Coordinator for the Nevada Power Company,

Marguerite learned first-hand the need for grid modernization. With proactive investment, Wake County will be a leader in the state for energy reliability and security
