@dbrauer Buy one in NZ ☺️ great item to remind you of the trip. Hiked Milford Track on the 1st day after it reopened to hikers after an extended close for rain. Waterfalls were epic. Vistas were cloud covered. All was soaked. That said, would go again.

Happy holidays from NREL! We asked a few of our employees what they are thankful for this holiday season. From incredible mentors to our growing impact, we are grateful to be #TransformingEnergy at this crucial time. #NRELHolidays

After thousands of submissions and months of deliberation, Minnesota has a new state flag. Its modern design replaces the controversial state seal, which Minnesota had used on its flag since 1893. What do you think of the new design? f-st.co/s3u2LOR

A nice montage of Northwoods creatures over a 1.5 month period this spring in a wild remote part of the Greater Voyageurs Ecosystem. We could be wrong but suspect some folks are really going to like the otters in this video because who doesn’t like watching otters slide on the snow…but hey, maybe we are  wrong!

Today from 12-6pm celebrate Small Business Saturday and shop our holiday artist market set up on 1st & 2nd floor. Live music on the 2nd floor Gallery Stage while you shop! #nemplsartsdistrict

This is an extremely important finding. We can increase how much power we can transmit on the grid using *existing* rights of way if we put new conductors in place. (Not dissimilar from @LizaBReed's papers on upgrading HVAC corridors to HVDC.)

Nice @PNS_News story on @ConnexusNews’ battery energy storage system in @Vadnais_Heights. Offsets need for larger infrastructure expansion effort while ensuring affordable & reliable energy. 👏 @robfargo @SenGustafson #WeNeedCleanMN #IRA @cleanenergymn publicnewsservice.org/2023-11-13/ene…

We live in and serve such a great state! #Minnesota #lefse #heritage
