Families need lower electric bills. Our grid needs more power. Massachusetts workers need these jobs.
So why is Donald Trump trying to block offshore wind projects that can help deliver all three?
Reversing this approval makes no sense. https://t.co/yrwWso0710
Rhode Island is bolstering its workforce by providing a pre-apprenticeship pathway into its growing building electrification industry.

Michigan saved enough electricity last year to power a city the size of Ann Arbor.⚡
This kind of energy-saving work will save utility customers more than $1.4 billion over the next 12 years. Here’s how it works. 🧵
It’s called energy waste reduction. Every electric and gas utility in Michigan is required to run programs that cut energy waste. For homes, that can mean more efficient lighting, heating and cooling upgrades, weatherization, or recycling an old appliance.
For every $1 utilities spent on these programs last year, customers are expected to save $2.42. They can help hold down costs even if you’ve never signed up. Wasting less energy can help delay or avoid building costly new power plants and soften the hit from rising fuel costs.
A bigger share of this help is reaching lower-income families. More than $162 million went to programs for Michiganders who qualify based on income last year. That’s over a quarter of all spending, up from less than 10% in 2016.
A national scorecard ranks Michigan #1 for natural gas savings as a share of sales and #3 for electricity savings. About 78,000 Michiganders work in energy efficiency, and these programs rely on them. Learn more: https://t.co/BTsqs2bqPn
Had a great day meeting with solar energy experts and Senator Conor McGuinness, Chair of the Committee on Fisheries and Maritime Affairs. Exchanging ideas and collaborating on innovative business initiatives like these help to deliver better services for both Maine and Ireland.
10 years ago, the world came together to form the Kigali Amendment, agreeing to phase down dangerous super pollutants called HFCs.
Today, Alliance states are working to carry this legacy forward.

California has exceeded every single audacious clean energy goal years in advance.
Governor @Schwarzenegger laid the foundation, and @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom has continued to deliver results that make Californians lives healthier and more affordable.
• $16 Billion in utility bill relief.
• $886 Million in electricity bill credits this year alone.
• $37 Billion reinvested in CA communities.
• 23,000 megawatts of battery storage strengthening the grid.
The Golden State is showing it’s possible to protect the environment AND making life more affordable.
The results reflect years of sustained investment in clean energy, the same technologies now outcompeting fossil fuels for investment around the world.

JUST IN: California’s power grid handled its highest electricity demand in four years — without emergency measures or calls for conservation.
50,335 megawatts. Extreme heat. And the lights stayed on.
While states like Texas face major grid failures, California’s clean energy investments are delivering a stronger, more resilient grid!
Last month, California's power grid supported the highest electricity demand since 2022 without any emergency measures.
That was no accident — the Golden State is proving that clean energy and battery storage systems are the best ways to keep the lights on.
In 2006, California’s governor signed the state’s first greenhouse gas reduction goal.
20 years later, the state is continuing its climate leadership under @CAgovernor Newsom.

Two decades after @Schwarzenegger signed #AB32, California’s success is something we can all be proud of 💪
📉 28% emissions drop
🚘 2.7 million ZEVs sold
⚡️ 67% clean energy
💵 $36 billion for @CAClimateInvest
🥇 1st in the nation for clean energy jobs 🌎
Extreme heat is the nation's leading cause of weather-related deaths. California has spent years building a stronger system to help communities prepare.
Now, every ZIP code in California gets a daily heat-risk score!
Launched in 2025, CalHeatScore became the nation’s first statewide heat-ranking system — giving Californians an early look at dangerous heat so they can prepare before it hits.
