Passionate about sustainability, clean energy and my kids. CEO of National Hydropower Association, views are mine alone.

@NatlHydroAssoc Wonderful to celebrate such as amazing year for Clean Energy and to catch up with so many friends!

[National Hydropower Association @NatlHydroAssoc]

NHA joined 16 other #renewable and #cleanenergy groups to toast the historic investments and momentum recently made in the clean energy field. Continued Congressional support and investment for #hydropower & other renewables is vital to keeping our grid clean and reliable!

In honor of National #HydroDay, here’s NHAs newest video showing how hydropower partners with wind and solar to provide 24/7 carbon free electricity.

Clean living is more than just how you eat or the house you keep...today, it's all about #cleanenergy, like #hydropower. Hydro provides a reliable 24/7 energy foundation for those times when the wind stops blowing and the sun is set. Learn more: https://t.co/xbRPVeVs1i #hydroday

@JigarShahDC As Jigar reminds us, the goal is #cleanfirm. We need to update our thinking #beyondGWs. Preserving our existing 100+ GWs of existing (but at-risk!) carbon-free #Hydropower is a good start.

[Malcolm Woolf @MalcolmDWoolf]

Save the Date! August 24 is National #HydroDay. We can't wait to celebrate the many benefits of #hydropower that prove #HydroIsKey to the U.S. clean energy grid!

Hydropower license reform took a step forward yesterday with the successful Senate energy subcommittee hearing. Thanks to Senators Daines (R-MT), Cantwell (D-WA), Risch (R-ID) and Wyden (D-WA) for the bipartisan leadership! https://t.co/n2vDrEiJjK

Congratulations to Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers (@cathymcmorris) for introducing the "Hydropower Clean Energy Future Act," and for your vocal support of #hydropower licensing reform at today's @HouseCommerce Oversight Hearing of @FERC.

[Malcolm Woolf @MalcolmDWoolf]

Kudos to @drvolts for shining a spotlight on #hydropower developer Emily Morris of @emrgyinc on Volts podcast. For conduit hydro projects, like Emrgy’s, @ORNL found that nationally we have the potential to add 1.4 gigawatts of capacity. #cleanenergy https://t.co/dUOgw5nPsX

When I first joined the #hydropower industry, I knew it provided #cleanenergy, but I failed to realize the true extent that it enriched local communities - an Observatory for stargazing, beaches, fishing, campgrounds, hiking trails - all provided by hydro https://t.co/dhY6V3MKmo

U.S. #hydropower generation in the West grew 13% last year (@EIAgov). The fact is that hydropower is reliable even during times of #drought - sustaining roughly 80% of its average generation during the recent severe drought. https://t.co/TUgjCOm3yv

[Malcolm Woolf @MalcolmDWoolf]

My recent tour of Rocky Reach #hydropower plant was a reminder that hydro is vital to our #cleanenergy future – but that future isn't guaranteed. That's why we're working with river & climate communities on a legislative package to protect the U.S. fleet. https://t.co/0pzi2EtM71

[Malcolm Woolf @MalcolmDWoolf]

I’ve learned that progress moves at the speed of trust. Thank you, DOE, for helping groups with very different perspectives find common ground. https://t.co/ZOeANlgFPV

Congrats to
@americanrivers
on their 50th anniversary! Proud of what we have accomplished together to make rivers healthier, making dams safer, & strengthening #hydropower’s ability to provide #cleanenergy. Proud to call them our friends & our allies. https://t.co/IC9qbjSD1a

.@FERC Chair @RichGlickFERC on #hydropower licensing agreement at #WPW2022: "The great news is the uncommon dialogue - the fact that we get Tribes & industry and others to sit around a table and hammer things out is astounding to me. I’m optimistic” Read: https://t.co/8aGlS9W8tP

I'm registered for #WPW2021 are you?? Join me and other #hydro industry professionals at @NatlHydroAssoc's premier policy event of the year! #Waterpower https://t.co/h3Qkx2eQkI

[Malcolm Woolf @MalcolmDWoolf]

The events of the last week in Texas should be a call to action for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the RTO/ISOs to re-evaluate market rules to ensure that flexibility and long-duration energy storage are encouraged and properly compensated. https://t.co/eBWnj1Kkr6
