There's a new June demand record in Texas. The ERCOT grid peaked above 82,500 megawatts today; previous record, set in 2023, was a little over 81,000. At the time of peak demand, renewables provided over 50% of supply. #txlege#txenergy
@TheAtlantic@GrahamDavidA Should be incumbent upon the airlines and not individual customers to elevate the group experience. Air travel today is disgusting. Crumbs, dirty seats, tray tables. Feel strongly about seeing the sky? Airlines are gonna make you pay. The people who pay for it get the choice.
@JigarShahDC State competitive model worked against mature projects best positioned on cost. You’re right: sequencing is key. The Biden Admin permitting by stakeholder takeover followed by the Trump Admin refusing to advance leased areas on permitting jeopardize any future US OSW market.
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore says the state needs to move on redistricting.
“We don’t have a choice but to act, particularly when we’re watching the greatest assault on Black voter representation ... that we have seen in generations," he tells our @jmart.

The data tells the story. Homegrown U.S. power is meeting rising energy demand across the country. 2025 was a record year for clean power added to the grid, despite political headwinds.

Seems to be flying enormously under the radar that Trump has banned wind power in the United States. A full 10% of our electricity. Just imagine if another administration did this extrajudicially to any other industry.
Everyone who cares about climate should understand this. Texas, with no pro-climate policies, has blown passed California in clean energy. In large part because Texas has less red tape and makes it easier to build.
Donald Trump just blocked over 150 wind energy projects across America, killing 30 gigawatts of new power generation.
That is enough electricity for nearly 10 million homes.
He is doing this while his unauthorized war with Iran sends oil markets into chaos and pushes energy costs higher for every working family in America. Wind already provides 10 percent of our electricity.
It powers Republican states like Texas, Iowa, Oklahoma, and North Dakota.
American workers build these projects.
American landowners profit from them.
American grids depend on them.
But Trump told us his goal in January. He said he does not want a single wind project built. Now he is using the Pentagon to make it happen, freezing routine military reviews that companies have relied on for years.
We are in an energy crisis.
Demand is climbing. Prices are rising. And the President is sabotaging American power production because he thinks turbines are ugly. This is not energy policy.
It is a personal grudge dressed up as national security, and families across our nation will pay the price.

2025 was a record-breaking year for American clean power and more is on the way! @USCleanPower predicts that > 80% of new power installations through 2030 will be clean energy. Market trends on Powerline:

Wow - renewables are like >5% of PJM's generation mix today. New queue is open...watching for the clean energy market in PJM expand to compete with other RTOs.
PJM Interconnection today announced that 811 new generation projects, capable of generating 220 gigawatts of electricity, have applied to connect to the grid through the first Cycle of PJM’s reformed interconnection process. This marks the first major intake under a redesigned approach focused on improving the certainty, speed and discipline of project review. More at https://t.co/vEEVN7gqUg
