I grew up visiting the Chicago museums on my summer breaks, was so cool to be able to see the @shedd_aquarium from a totally different perspective today touring their solar microgrid @Chicago_MARC @MichiganPSC

It’s a wrap for our @Chicago_MARC @Sunrun tour, and we’re ready to hit the road! Sneaking a peek in the all-electric @Ford Lightning ☀️❤️⚡️🔋🚙 Bravo to the solar dream team @NakhiaCrossley @klshall

@theamyheart @Sunrun @Ford @NakhiaCrossley @klshall Woohoo! Glad you tried it!

We enjoyed talking about #genderequity, #leadership, and career planning with a diverse group of women from the Bosnia and Herzegovina #energysector during this week’s @USAIDBIH and NARUC Women in Energy Leadership Training, supported by USAID’s Energy Policy Activity!

Fantastic tour of @shedd_aquarium this afternoon with @MichiganPSC colleagues (and my son Jack!) as part of @Chicago_MARC! Really interesting to see how energy and water conservation contribute to their larger conservation efforts.

“When we invest in diverse suppliers, we are touching families, lifting up communities, training the workforce of the future, & creating local jobs” remarked @GQenergy, our CEO, at @Chicago_MARC's supplier & workforce diversity this morning.

@apoorv_bh89 We approve!

Breakfast burritos are a great way to start the day

ALERT: SPP issued a resource advisory for its entire 14-state Eastern Interconnection footprint Monday because of higher-than-normal temperatures. The advisory is effective 4 p.m. (CT) Tuesday and is expected to end at 8 p.m. Friday. ✏️: @tkleckner1 #EnergyTwitter #EnergyMarkets

Appreciate hearing from @ChristieFERC at @Chicago_MARC on the importance of state involvement in electric transmission. So important to have these open lines of communication between federal and state utility regulators.

Keynote @FERC Commissioner Mark Christie starts at 11:30 sharp! Please sit where you will enjoy the @MichiganPSC lunch! (Blue - fish, Brown - chicken, Green - veggie)
