@RichGlickFERC @FERC @POTUS @RichGlickFERC now if the @Mets can only do as well!

[Richard Sedano @rapsedano]

@RichGlickFERC @FERC @POTUS Thank you @RichGlickFERC for your creativity, diligence and sensitivity. Great experiences add up to this. I hope @RegAssistProj gets opportunities to work with you in the future.

Good COP/Bad COP.

A new @RegAssistProj paper from me on the relationship between building fabric efficiency, flow temperatures and heat pump performance in which I consider the Irish 'HLI' requirement for heat pump grants (thread).

RAP’s @sunderlandlouis and @duncanmgibb are helping Europe take the ‘burn’ out of heating for low-income households.
Find out how Europe can push lower-income households to the front of the queue in the switch to #CleanHeat.

[Louise Sunderland, [email protected] @sunderlandlouis]

NEW STUDY: Continued reliance on #fossilfuels threatens energy security & affordability.
Lowest-income households & communities are most exposed to risk.
My & @duncanmgibb‘s paper examines how low-inc households can switch from fossil fuel heating.

My colleague @duncanmgibb shows how Europe’s Renewable Energy Directive promotes inefficient heating, and how the RED can be fixed. Metrics matter!

European #EV #smartcharging tariffs and services have grown rapidly, but few use actual conditions on the grid as input. Improving tariff design to include grid conditions can provide #DSOs with much-needed flexibility resources writes @burger_jaap and @J_Hildermeier.

[Richard Sedano @rapsedano]

More heat pumps are happening, climate-sensitive policy and increasing consumer confidence will accelerate this beneficial trend.

[Jan Rosenow @janrosenow]

HOT OFF THE PRESS: Our new @NatureEnergyJnl paper shows how the global heat pump market is expanding.

Some countries with remarkable market growth in 2021 of up to 72%.

Monthly energy bills for home heating have been heading up. Our proposal to swap AC to heat pumps is a great way for households to slash those bills — and emissions — without upending the ways they are used to thinking about heating their homes.

[david farnsworth @DFarnsworthVT]

Electrification of existing housing stock is a big mountain to climb, and every home is different. Our proposal to swap AC to heat pumps opens a path. @CLASPappliances and @RegAssistProj have a new paper about how this works. Check it out: https://t.co/aSbWREPGpV

Planning to decarbonise the *power system* – vs decarbonising gas – can accelerate the #EnergyTransition and lower costs.
RAP’s Megan Anderson (@arc2renewables), @janrosenow, and #RichardCowart dig deep into how to move away from fossil gas: https://t.co/Chd2tBmS7b

@BSmithwood With all respect Brandon, and not minimizing the Florida news, I suggest you may be unfamiliar with 40 years of Sanders' record as mayor, congressman and senator

State friends in the US -- please take notice of this singular opportunity to obtain and direct funds for EV charging

[RAP @RegAssistProj]

The clock is ticking on @USDOTFHWA decisions about funding for crucial EV infrastructure. Writing in @UtilityDive, @DFarnsworthVT and @camillekadoch1 urge states to weigh in now on what they need. https://t.co/IGI9x4BcR1

@zacurate I have. Hundreds of times. It helps. It's not essential to understand information.

A pleasure to work to create this thinking for electric power reform in China with our friends from Ea Energy Analysis in Denmark

[Luis R Boscán F 🇩🇰🇬🇱🇻🇪 @luisraboscan]

1/ Max Dupuy of the @RegAssistProj (RAP), Lars Bregnbaek of Ea Energy Analyses and I have put forward 5 recommendations for the forthcoming market reforms to the #Chinese #electricity #market, which aim at implementing a unified national market https://t.co/LAAeuuq8Qj

[Richard Sedano @rapsedano]

To build on recent gains in the rollout of #heatpumps, we need to expand targeted government policies.
@janrosenow and @duncanmgibb share international examples of policy options in @CarbonBrief https://t.co/tfKJ9Ovt4Z

What if #SmartCharging were available to all #EV users, wherever they charge?@burger_jaap and @J_Hildermeier explain why smart charging should be the default and why this is crucial for decarbonising transport and energy. Via @eaTransport https://t.co/wTyWs9XVkN

EU currently pays about €360 billion a year to import fossil fuels. If it invested this amount in #CleanEnergy, Europe could meet its higher 2030 climate and energy targets.

What's happening with Germany's Energiewende?

How will the new government tackle the main challenges of the energy transition? And what about Nord Stream 2?
