@duncancampbell Hey DC! Submitted to speak @ DERVOS. I would love to speak on a recent keynote I gave inspiring Energy Changemakers. I just finished a book and am doing a lot more inspirational speaking. Also recommended Gonski.

This @ScaleMicrogrids project at @GallaudetU is the only community solar array I know of that also can help island the host's load during grid outages. Also pretty cool that it orchestrates all these different arrays together alongside the behind the meter batteries and cogen.

one day long after Scale I'm going to buy some land, develop solar and storage on it, graze livestock within the array, and live in a trailer onsite to do solar maintenance and ranching all day

@duncancampbell The inverse correlation between rate increases and power outages. Higher price for decline in uptime.

What key metrics would you want to know about your utility's average rates over time? Average growth rate? Max growth rate? Percentile across all utilities?

@duncancampbell An antiquated model that will come to an end soon. Draping wires to stripped trees is a 120 year old model. Trying to make more money at it is surely a path to obscurity.

The Bellmawr BOE cut the ribbon on their 725 kW solar project. The systems on the town's 3 elementary schools will jointly produce 1,000,000 kWh of electricity, replacing over 80% of the current consumption and saving the district approx $2.5 million over the next 15 years!!

"When lawmakers set up this system in the late 1990s, the assumption was that a competitive marketplace would result in lower power prices for customers. But for the most part, the opposite has happened." wbur.org/news/2023/05/0… #energytwitter #mapoli

Learned a lot from this pod w/ @shaylekann @RobGramlichDC Amazing/infuriating stat: Currently ~2 terawatts of renewable energy generation capacity stuck in the interconnection queue…for reference ~1.25 terawatts of TOTAL generation capacity on the US grid right now. 😬
Catalyst w/ Shayle Kann@CatalystPod

The U.S. power grid is clogged, and it's holding back the energy transition.⚡️💡 In this episode, @shaylekann and @RobGramlichDC talk through the three major challenges of transmission: congestion, interconnection and buildout. canarymedia.com/podcasts/catal…
