Here's just one example: The chart above looks at responses to a question on how and whether the government should seek to cut power sector carbon emissions.

• The precise wording of the questions on what to do with the Obama-era Clean Power Plan (which Trump's EPA is seeking to scuttle) are on page 79.

Demand: The report also notes that a substantial number of respondents — though not a majority — predict a return of rising power demand after years of stagnation or declines.

• "While most (45%) expect their overall load to remain stagnant, this year more utility professionals expect to see overall growth in load (39%), rather than shrinking load (15%)," it states.

Cybersecurity fears rising: "This year, 81% of utility professionals listed cybersecurity as either important or very important."

• That's up from 72% in the prior survey. In earlier years, cybersecurity was only fifth or sixth among top concerns.
