I spend way too much time on twitter for energy, sports and politics. I also lead @NEPowerGen. As you know, RTs aren't endorsements. (he/him)

This week on the Codcast, reporter Jordan Wolman speaks with president of the New England Power Generators Association Dan Dolan about the challenge of delivering energy to the Bay State during a "frozen investment market." Check it out:

Winter Storm Fern & its cold aftermath was no joke in New England. Yet, extraordinary coordination occurred across industry and all levels of government. New England’s electricity market also did what it needed to do. I looked back in @UtilityDive utilitydive.com/news/cold-new-…

The New England grid passed one winter test, but market reforms are still needed
Constructive collaboration should be celebrated while the region works to fine-tune its market to drive and sustain investments, writes NEPGA President Dan Dolan.

"This system works and works well. We did not have any reliability events despite arctic temperature and the coldest winter in nearly 10 years across New England." @NEPowerGen's @DSMDolan shared insights in the @hartfordcourant on how the region's power grid weathered Winter Storm Fern.

What really kept CT warm during the deep freeze. It’s a stress test for state, regional power grids. trib.al/lufdSMz

New piece attempting to synthesize the past few weeks across media, market structure, geopolitical trust, and lessons from history, asking... can you run the world like a reality TV show?
What does it look like to exit the Great Moderation, a 40-year period of macroeconomic stability? Are we in the Great Entertainment? What does that mean for the bond market, the Fed, Japan, and AI hype vs. energy reality?

2025 saw a lot power plant transactions announced in New England. 2026 is picking up that momentum. With this announcement, ~15% of generation capacity in the region has had M&A announced in 2025/2026. The market is churning! investor.vistracorp.com/2026-01-05-Vis…

The good people @isonewengland always do a great job explaining the funny load curves on holidays. These visuals and description from @NatBullard are a fun complement to that. Geek out before the cooking (and eating and dishwashing) marathon begins!

Did you wake up the day before Thanksgiving and think "you know, my working hours aren't complete without a thorough explainer on the weirdest electrical load day of the year in the US?" Well then, I've got you covered! Happy reading from me and @Halcyon hubs.la/Q03VT-v20

It’s no small thing when a senior federal policymaker takes time to leave Washington to engage directly. I am grateful the acting Undersecretary will join us in Boston to provide the administration’s perspective as we strive to power New England forward. See you in a few weeks!

Is it even an energy conference these days without a data center discussion??? This will look a bit different in New England, but the rumblings of activity are out there and this conversation will help map out what can be done here and key considerations for success.
NEPGA@NEPowerGen
2025 is the year of data centers and AI. New England has opportunities to learn the lessons from the growth in other markets and determine the best, right path forward. To help decode all of that we have a fantastic group of people at the center of this hugely exciting space.

This chart starts at an almost perfect moment - right after deregulation and a wave of “animal spirits” had driven a massive over-investment in generation. Because of competition, that risk was borne by investors, not customers.
Steven Rattner@SteveRattner
An important chart from @washingtonpost on energy costs – generation has become cheaper, but the cost of delivering energy to consumers across the grid has more than doubled.

All of this

T&D costs "accounted for 44% of utilities’ capital expenditures in 2023 and has risen steadily since 2019... Spending on generation, by contrast, has been falling steadily since that time, amounting to 25% of capital expenditures in 2023." From @bstorrow subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews…

I'm really looking forward to this unique way to recognize Gordon and his enormous impact on New England. This will be a candid conversation between two incredibly thoughtful CEOs on where we came from, navigating challenging conditions today, & how to move forward for tomorrow.

NEPGA proudly announces a special New England Energy Summit session on the legacy & leadership of Gordon van Welie over 20+ years @isonewengland. This conversation will be led by another accomplished leader with deep New England ties, Thad Hill. newengandenergysummit.com

We’ve had a warm summer so far and just like those other muggy days, the New England grid is leaning on a huge array of facilities to meet some of the highest demand in years, both in front of and behind the meter. I’m proud of this remarkable fleet that keeps us cool & powered.

One of the most interesting/confusing topics in New England electricity markets is the delta between wholesale and retail price outcomes these days. This piece digs into it and try to explain what is going on.
NEPGA@NEPowerGen
Our latest PowerLines is on electricity affordability. A confounding issue is the widening gap between some of the lowest wholesale electricity prices in decades and rising retail energy supply costs. Why is that happening and what got us to this point? nepga.org/no-but-really-…
