Interesting read about grid testing that's been taking place in Western MA for decades. What happens when lightning strikes a power line? A world-class laboratory in Lenox recreates weather to improve the power grid #GRID #energy berkshireeagle.com/news/central_b… via @berkshireeagle

The winter of paper cuts continues. Let's see if we can snag one of the bigger potentials over the next 7-8 days. #wbz

Trump declared a Natl Energy Emergency to use all nec resources to build critical infrastructure, then signed an Exec Order pausing #offshorewind leasing/permitting. This will hurt hundreds of U.S. companies, thousands of workers. Read our response here shorturl.at/OgBFb

@EdKodzis See this as well blog.ucsusa.org/susan-muller/n…

@McMComm You realize there is plenty of wind projects in area and vineyard wind is on line right? You can actually go on "Grid Satus" and see instantly production...your a PR firm..you should know that on the coldest and hottest day wind production will be down because of no wind

Would sure be nice to have some clean #offshorewind energy to change up this situation.

@EdKodzis For New England power supply, there are offshore wind projects under construction and others in permitting. But as of Saturday, 1/18/25, just one VW turbine was producing power after the July blade failure. newbedfordlight.org/vineyard-wind-…

@EdKodzis You do realize that offshore wind hasn't been built out yet - right? 🤔

@McMComm Sadly bad option with calm, cold high pressure 49 MW the other day,less than 5% of wind power capacity..

Great read by @aelennon1 on how 2 industries can work together. "Fishermen may not like offshore wind, but some work for it" newbedfordlight.org/fishermen-may-… #offshorewind

@PeterLovasco @sjforman138 reports a person found in the water. Looks to be Bass River.

What's going on in Beverly, ma? Heli's flying all over Cummings Center. Anyone??

Terrific article about an important training program! ecori.org/protected-spec…

@curious_founder What about #RhodeIsland ? Any explanation for the increase there? The data you linked to showed increases between 9-76% with 4 of the 5 plants over 50%. It's @isonewengland grid so why did one state jump so high?

In 2023 power emissions fell across the U.S. as they have for the last decade. But they rose significantly in the Pacific Northwest, erasing some of the region's climate progress. So what happened? distilled.earth/p/severe-droug… 🧵

GE is planning to scrap its new 18MW offshore wind turbine model. That's problematic for three projects in NY planning on using it. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews…
