@dougboneparth Amazon and every other retailer SHOULD highlight the direct impact the Trump tariffs are having on the prices of imported products! If transparency to US citizens is a hostile and political act, then the Trump tariffs are a hostile and political act against US citizens.

Agreed! Deploying sheep at solar facilities lowers O&M $, improves the land & grows TX ag businesses. Proud of our members’ work on grazing & other innovative ways to ensure multi-purpose land use by working directly with private landowners who partner with industry. #txenergy

[Michael Jewell @MJJ45]

@atx_markstover And the quick reactions of batteries when there is a sudden generator trip or industrial consumption that stops can stabilize the grid faster than ERCOT has been able to achieve before. All resources working together deliver reliable service to Texans! #txenergy #txlege

Reminder: solar panels are NOT toxic.

WATCH @HopperAbby take down recent online disinformation about #solar panels⬇️

Current status of today's #TAC meeting on #NOGRR245: both the industry OEMs and the @ERCOT_ISO versions failed as is, to get the votes they need with substantial abstention. As predicted, even though this effort has taken months and is critical to get some progress on quickly, we have a now after 1.75 hours, a few failed motions, but also a hopeful attempt from a couple #TAC members to have a compromise solution that hits all the same goals so it can be moved forwardto the April Board meeting. Thanks for chairing this grueling session with orderly grace, @CaitlinSmithTX 💯.

“Renewable energy and battery storage projects generate tens of billions of dollars in tax revenue and landowner payments, 60 percent of which benefits rural counties.” #txlege

@TXManufacturers Great to see continued growth of #SOLAR in ERCOT - especially with more diverse locations in the state! #txenergy, #txlege

Texas PUC is considering changes to Texas electricity market to be like CA that once again shows it fails to protect the state from grid failures and costs more $$. California Declares Grid Emergency, Warning of Blackouts https://t.co/LblbNAepfr #txenergy, #txlege

Sir Oswald Mosley founded the British Fascist Union when he became disillusioned with normal government. Bertrand Russell’s response to Mosley’s repeated attempts to discuss the “benefits of fascism” are once again - and always - of value. #Vote #DefendDemocracy

The predictability and accountability of solar is a “lifesaver” for many farming families that want to pass on the land to the next generation. Solar revenue is as reliable as the sun that supports it. @SouthrnCurrent_ #LandownerRights #TxEnergy

Great to see CTEI Adv Board member Michael Jewell (@MJJ45) speaking on "Texas Challenges & Opportunities" panel during @USCleanPower #CLEANPOWER2022, along with @JeffClarkUSA, #JeanRyall, @colinmeehan, @russellgold. Thoughtful panel tackling tough issues.

Solar generation performed more reliably that thermal generation yesterday (output at 73% compared to 66% of installed capacity)! The continued growth of solar this year will ensure more reliable grid operations on hot summer days with plenty of sunshine! #txlege #TXEnergy

🚨🚨 The Texas electric grid can barely keep the lights on and it’s not even hot yet. We’re on the verge of a full energy crisis. Here’s why: 🧵

[Doug Lewin @douglewinenergy]

Hearing has started. Link in tweet below. First question for PUC Chair from B&C Chair Schwertner is about the "conservative" operation of the grid. He asks about increased RUCs and reserves and impact on energy only market design. Live tweet thread below...

Great to see support for diversity of generation resources in ERCOT: Opinion: One year after Winter Storm Uri, Texas is moving in the right direction https://t.co/LuSt9zOQkS via @houstonchron

[Doug Lewin @douglewinenergy]

In an interview w/ @evanasmith, @PUCTX Chair Lake didn't know how much more ERCOT, at his direction, has spent on reserves.

Smith asked: Could it be $500m?

Lake: "I don't know the number off the top of my head."

I think it might be more.

This is something.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott in November: "I guarantee the lights will stay on."
Governor Abbott just now: "No one can guarantee that there wont be a 'load shed event.'"
A 'load shed event' is a planned blackout.
