With Amanda Bybee at Amicus O&M Coop talking about solar/BESS maintenance: this chart points out how YOUNG most installed solar is... so the need for maintenance is not as palpable yet for many. But this day is coming!

Are others getting spammed by the ERC tax credit scam mafia? I get at least 3 calls or letters _a day_ and we took advantage of this in 2021. Ugh.

[Piper Foster Wilder @piperfosterwild]

@NWRAT We hope so! @60HertzSoftware is raising right now if any of those finance guys have cash burning a hole in the pocket!

Inspired:@tomhanks "the radioactive level of attention & his ability to refract it into pure joy & shared humanity was healing energy... how often do people who are treated as bigger, better, more special than others resist the temptation to believe it?" https://t.co/CmhvD9ubPK

@NWRAT @MakitaTools yeah, we have one too but only bought 1 set of batteries. This means that Nathaniel (yes gendered-jobs in this family) only mows 3/4ths of the lawn at a time🙃much to my discontent! A few weeks later we get the other 3/4th. Maybe you have a smaller lawn or bigger battery pack?

Which business model will win for Virtual Power Plant operations? Utility owns and operates; Utility contracts with leading brand to continue operating their assets (i.e. Powerwalls); Utility finds a Virtual IPP to stand behind reliability guarantee and pay fines if not? Tell me!

[Piper Foster Wilder @piperfosterwild]

@NWRAT @JoeBiden @PeteButtigieg @GavinNewsom yes! I remember when you broke or severely strained your ankle on a scary flight into Aspen, right?

[Piper Foster Wilder @piperfosterwild]

@USCleanPower 2023 report on investment in the sector shares important metrics but left out estimates on renewable servicing. It reflects our sector's chronic blindspot about the jobs and economic activity _after_ the ribbon cutting.

@portlandgeneral plans to hit 80% reduction by 2030 not only by more wind,solar, BESS, but Virtual Power Plants composed of customer-sited assets @C3E_EnergyWomen

[Piper Foster Wilder @piperfosterwild]

@60HertzSoftware is building software that will facilitate the operations (not just the ribbon cutting!) of Virtual Power Plants. I'm enthusiastic to see the relatively new @RockyMtnInst Virtual Power Plant Partnership...this is what we need from policy & industry dev perspective

Who has seen the film Navalny?
FABULOUS DOCU. I realized that part of Putin's motive to take Ukraine was to distract from @Navalny's significant momentum. War has a handy way of throttling democracy. https://t.co/GHQlo10BYE

[Piper Foster Wilder @piperfosterwild]

Excited to see this news for Colorado, for heavy industry and for @Holcim @TotalEnergies : offset 40% of energy demand for the Florence, CO location. Total's O&M contract is a 15yr PPA. Hopeful that @60HertzSoftware can have a hand in attaining these carbon-important goals

Rhianna, "royalty in her own right" what a double-header between Academy Awards and SuperBowl halftime, all during first trimester!

"An inflection point in global stationary storage was 2017 when Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico...the demand started then and spread across the US."

@rihanna, bless you for unapologetically rocking an outfit that didn't conceal a slight post-partum tummy.
Course, when you are worth $1.2B...

"If you are not looking at data as part of your maintenence strategy you are also not thinking about this in financial terms. Your financier will increase, likely, your terms, without data to inform your maintenence."
-Kevin Doffing @EnergyCapHOU

"Flexibility in energy storage O&M is what I want Manufacturers to offer. And what customers should address long before a purchase. Does your staff want to self perform? How to retain the warranty?" - Lauren Khair @NRECANews
