Offshore wind supports American shipbuilding. 🚢
This weekend in Louisiana, #ACPMember @OrstedUS christened the ECO Edison, the first-ever US-made offshore wind service operations vessel, which will be vital to the construction of offshore wind projects in the Northeast.
Great to have Majority Leader @SteveScalise and @RepTroyCarter there to celebrate.

#PowerToThePeople of the @EasternGrid 💪
Here it is: #Energy #history!
At 11:52 p.m. on January 2, 2024, the first #turbine rotation from our nation-leading #VineyardWind 1 project that delivered the very first #offshorewind power to the #Massachusetts grid.
This is why the East grid is the beast grid. Pretty big head start!
#PilotNewYorkCity | “New York has long been the hub of urban innovation, dating back to the 1880s, when Edison electrified a one-mile radius off Pearl Street. We are researching how to encourage more Edison-style ‘bottom-up’ innovation … .” edc.nyc/program/pilot-new-yo…

New:
Sen. Schumer has asked FERC to begin writing new rules that would make it easier to build new power lines
The rules may allow Democrats to skip permitting-reform talks and secure some of their biggest remaining climate goals by agency action

This is such a fantastic, clarifying story from @emilypont on the IRA’s most generous and arguably most important tax credit — which could transform the electricity grid or mess up the energy economy.
You should read this and catch up on the whole thing. heatmap.news/economy/green-h…

"It’s very challenging; our current #grid infrastructure is really old and it’s not designed for both the unprecedented changing #climate that we’re seeing and the need to lower #CarbonEmissions, simultaneously." - Liyang Wang, @BerkeleyLabETA scientist
🥵 There could come a point when it's far too hot for energy systems to handle. Researchers Andy Jones and Liyang Wang are part of a team working to provide practical tools and guidance for grid planners. Hear from them ⤵️ @BerkeleyLabETA @BerkeleyLab

If it’s good for the @EasternGrid it’s good for the @WesternGrid!
Shenzen is the first city in the world to all its public transportation electric. 16,000 buses, 20,000 taxis all without combustion engines. Who's next?
We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

It would be interesting to see what @BillGates and #TerraPower could do in West Virginia and the @EasternGrid compared to what they are doing for the @WesternGrid.
In Wyoming, where coal and natural gas power its electric generation plants, Bill Gates and his energy company TerraPower are planning their first cutting-edge nuclear power plant. cbsn.ws/3OsDwax

We have so many clean energy projects — solar/wind/batteries/etc — jammed up in the queue to connect to the grid.
Building more transmission lines would alleviate this bottleneck, but we need permitting reform to make that happen.

The cheapest power in 🇺🇸 is largely stranded in the Great Plains states.
To move that power to market, we need a 21st century grid, connected like the national highway system.
That means: (1) incentives for large-scale lines; and (2) permitting reform to get them built.

The eastern grid could use some #CleanEnergyTransition @GovMurphy!
The clean energy transition is inevitable. The question is whether @NJGov wants to lead, follow, or be left behind. Read our CEO @timsullivan510’s thoughts on the extraordinary economic opportunity we have at our fingertips. nj.com/opinion/2023/05/the-c…
