Description

In this episode, we sit down with Patty Durand, founder of Georgians for Affordable Energy and longtime advocate for consumer rights and clean energy. Patty has spent her career at the intersection of policy, advocacy, and accountability — from leading the Georgia Sierra Club, to a decade as Executive Director of the Smart Energy Consumer Collaborative, to launching her own campaign for the Public Service Commission.

Patty opens up about:

  • Why Georgians are paying some of the highest power bills in the Southeast

  • The role of the Public Service Commission in setting rates — and why accountability matters

  • How corruption and utility overreach harm everyday families

  • The future of clean energy in Georgia and how affordability and sustainability can go hand-in-hand

    If you care about your power bill, clean energy, or holding leaders accountable, this is a must-listen conversation.
