Utility Program Director @southwestEE. Energy dork. Trying out this twitter thing.

This bill also develops a pathway for the Colorado PUC to remove the natural gas obligation to serve for selected projects

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

Great to see the @GovofCO sign HB 1370. This bill provides a meaningful pathway for local governments in Colorado to work with a dual fuel utility to develop neighborhood scale alternatives to natural gas pipeline investment. @COEnergyOffice @Cathy_Kipp

Over 135,000 #EnergyEfficiency jobs in the Southwest, with New Mexico and Nevada showing the highest growth in jobs nationally.

Energy efficiency workforce data details will be revealed.

@drvolts Retired engineers are my least favorite stakeholders. Feel like they know better than you, coupled with too much time on their hands.

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

Well done.

This is a great overview of this nation-leading legislation I was happy to help develop. https://t.co/BEorEMz1gl via @coloradosun

Thanks to @GovofCO @Lieder4CO @Hansen4Colorado @Cathy_Kipp for supporting geothermal heating and cooling. This bill will be essential in meeting the state's building decarbonization goals.

This session, #COleg significantly advanced energy efficiency & climate protection but fell short on location-efficient land use reform. I'm proud of @SouthwestEE's work to help secure these wins. #energy #efficiency #climate. Read more at: https://t.co/yYeAcMxR6d

@samuelbrasch In my experience if you're a net generator in October it's a pretty good sign you will at least break even for the year. However, I don't have electric heat, which would likely tip the balance some towards not being net zero for electricity.

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

Big news out of the Colorado PUC is great for natural gas customers already facing large bill increases this winter. #energytwitter #copolitics https://t.co/KrzlOpll6A

SWEEP's Neil Kolwey responds to @leighty_ted's “smart, balanced and cost-effective approach” toward reducing Colorado's carbon footprint. (via @CoPo_Opinion) https://t.co/heAZ13Tu6B

Thank you @SenatorHick and @SenatorBennet for supporting this generational investment in reducing emissions

[Elise Jones @Elise4BoCo]

A special shout out to Sen. Hickenlooper for his tenacious efforts to win his Senate colleagues' support for the #InflationReductionAct. This landmark bill will benefit CO & the rest of the U.S. with a cleaner, more affordable energy future. Thank you @SenatorHick! @SouthwestEE

@khaydenver I am also a Wes grad. Been a long time since I was there as well.

This is terrifying

A MASSIVE WALL OF FIRE seen today on the Calf Canyon Fire. This incredible footage by one of our Substack subscribers shows new growth on the fire just minutes ago. The energy of this fire continues to impress. Crews continue work to contain the fire. #CalfCanyonFire #fire #nmwx

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

First summer on the new @XcelEnergyCO TOU rate I helped design. 27 cents/kwh on peak is high enough to get my attention and spur load shifting.

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

Feels like @XcelEnergyCO is trolling me by replacing the gas pipes on my street. These soon to be stranded assets are infuriating.

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

@mikekruger Grand Coulee dam based on capacity.

[Justin Brant @JustinBrant16]

@mikekruger I only know the answer based on capacity, but they would both be interesting if different.
