I'm really glad I'm on Twitter so people can remind me on the regular that the sun sometimes goes down and there's a thing called clouds. Really important to factor that into my thinking and research about energy systems. Thanks everyone.

After losing money for 11 years straight, American shale finally figured out they can just price gouge instead and make tons of money.

Funny they didn't think about doing this earlier. Or maybe it's the global oil market that dictates pricing, not companies themselves... 🤔🤔

It's unfortunate that, early in this op-ed , ISO-NE's CEO says: "There are those who take for granted that electrons will just keep flowing to New England’s consumers." No one involved in the ISO's stakeholder process takes reliability for granted. 1/ https://t.co/fb3KmyB8Fl

Starting to see a relatively small amount of power outages in TX, AK, and TN

Numbers continuously increasing - nothing too significant yet.

🧵1/6 @pjminterconnect is proposing a 2+year pause on approving new interconnection requests, most of which are solar projects, with plans to pause review until 2025 and defer new capacity online until 2027!

This is completely unacceptable.

Huge amount of freezing rain stretching from Texas into the Northeast over the next few days. Power outages, gas freeze offs, wind curtailments, thermal gen outages, and transmission outages are all possibilities as this storm hits. #PJM #ERCOT #energytwitter
