Hundreds of Alabama residents received notice of a $100 surcharge on their energy bills because of Donald Trump.
“For people in Alabama that’s a real, and immediate, and hugely expensive thing that is very obviously Donald Trump’s fault.” —@Maddow

The energy transition is happening faster than ever – and #offshorewind is one of the best solutions we have to meeting energy demand, becoming more energy independent, and creating a resilient energy grid to prevent blackouts and keep the lights on.
The Biden administration on Thursday announced a series of new rules to cut pollution emitted from coal and natural gas fired power plants impacting the air, water, land and climate. trib.al/J1g76CO

Over 30K US #veterans work in #cleanenergy, and @USArmy vet Drew is one of them. For #VeteransDay, we're proud to share his story, as part of @ce4aef’s #FacesofCleanEnergy, and why he's proud to keep serving his community, now as a @Sunrun #solar tech.

A new poll finds that nearly 7/10 residents of coastal counties support #offshorewind near where they live. See more from @TurnForwardWind & @ClimateNexus: hubs.ly/Q01tvYNV0

Of course a think tank funded in part by the fossil fuel industry is leading a campaign against offshore wind power, and trying to make it sem progressive. Details from @emorwee & @curious_founder: heated.world/p/the-fossil-fu…

A new report came out this month from @chisholmproject looking at the backgrounds of people who regulate our electric, gas and water utilities: Public Utility Commissioners (PUCs). I'm proud to have contributed to it.
A 🧵on the report's findings... 1/11

Unlike over a decade ago, where Ds were hammered in TV ads across the country on a cap-and-trade bill that didn’t even pass — you’re not seeing anything like that this cycle. In fact, you’re seeing Ds actually lean into their clean energy leadership. eenews.net/articles/missing-…

New research shows emissions from gas stoves are helping to warm the planet, with all of the natural gas used in homes and businesses accounting for about 13% of planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. Now, some cities are now banning them entirely.

Can't see any "legitimate chefs" turning to electric 🤨
C'mon @CBSMornings, I’m a “legitimate chef” and I’m here to say that plenty of chefs love electric induction stoves-it has more power and precision than gas stoves can ever hope to have. Report the facts not propaganda. 🧵

America's governors are disappointed but not deterred by another horrendous Supreme Court overreach in #WVvEPA. The govs of @USClimate representing the majority of Americans are recommitting to what their states are doing to combat climate change. A 🧵 of state ambition...

If Republicans put out a thing they call a “climate plan,” but it makes no claims that it will reduce carbon pollution, and in fact proposes policies that will do the opposite, reporters and editors should feel zero obligation to also call it a climate plan. Perhaps, the opposite

Governors from Nevada, Colorado, Illinois, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Washington sent a letter to @POTUS today, highlighting the costs of inaction on the clean energy tax package. gov.nv.gov/News/Press/2022/2…

Terrible framing @nytimes @mikiebarb. The Biden-Harris Admin has the most ambitious climate agenda in history. Rather than running away when gas prices are high, @POTUS is acting boldly to mitigate pain at the pump while doubling down on a swift transition to clean energy. 1/7
On today’s Daily: Biden has largely stopped making the case for his climate agenda and is focused on pumping as much oil and gas as possible. @CoralMDavenport examines his sudden climate retreat and asks if, given new political realities, it’s permanent nytimes.com/2022/04/12/podca…

New Jersey is already emerging as a national leader in offshore wind, as planned offshore-wind turbine projects are anticipated to bring $150 billion in private investment and power thousands of #cleanenergy jobs. inquirer.com/business/new-je…
