Yep. Too easy.

We will find your dog ( and your housekeeper, grandparents’ caregivers, gardeners).

Yep, we will find all of them and all you have to do is pay a monthly subscription.

Worse yet, your dog needs more exercise. Zero chance of it running away or anywhere.

So… US export of LNG market eventually goes from 20% today to zilch. Because math.

More supply then available to US consumers (AI, data).

EXCEPT maybe there really isn’t that much new domestic LNG available?

And LNG remains expensive to produce. Higher prices for everyone.

So much winning…

Some people call it the "Dark Side", others call it Operations and Maintenance.

Wind power is mechanical, turning, spinning, repeating, varying speeds. You need to take care of it.

Go ask nuclear, coal and gas turbine operators about their "Dark Side" next time.

Virginia House unanimously passes legislation to require utility measurement of grid utilization HB 434 seeks to modernize how the state's major utilities manage their infrastructure.

NWA....

No, not that...

No Wires Added or Non Wire Alternatives... this will be the rallying cry of politicians moving forward.

Grid is 100 year old design... NWA is like, hey, mind if we actually do something new, smart, safe and useful?

Grid: No thanks.

CEOs talking to truth to power is rich.

The CEOs won’t get us far though unless we can add on a Senator Collins deeply concerned statement.

Thank you… needed a big laugh.

Don’t forget:

Minnesota is the State of Hockey.

Team game, tough, skill, effort, and grit required.

Not saying everyone in Minnesota plays hockey. But the people there are showing G R I T.

IRONY: no ICE in the State of Hockey.

Says the Secretary of the Navy who never served in the Navy or U.S. military.

Stop with the optimism!
No more sugar coating please…

Congratulations!

But these firms often times support the local operas, charity galas…

Not to mention their strong working relationships with the press and government…

Goodbye to solar panels: Japan has just broken a rule that had remained intact for more than 140 years and proves that solar panels do not have to be flat For more than a century, most people have pictured solar power in the same way, as flat blue rectangles on rooftops or in wide fields. That look dates back to

www.ecoticias.com/en/goodbye-t...

Today we install flat panels on a roof but who knows what shapes we will use in 10 years. We might spray your next solar system on to the roof. Or put this cool tech down.

Pretty cool…

Oddly enough, Texas, specifically ERCOT, might be the real surprise moving forward. Remember it is Texas so the game was ORIGINALLY rigged for fossil fuel incumbents. But now more than 80% of new generation there is Solar + Storage. And that is why the data centers love Texas... the math thing.

Kind of curious if one of the unsaid ground rules with today's hearing was that the following terms / concepts could not be mentioned:

residential solar / distributed energy resources ( DERs) / antiquated grid / homeowner choices

If you really want to lower prices, might add these into the mix.

Energy + Consumer Protection, Technology and Utilities Committees hearing today in Harrisburg PA was worth listening too... Energy costs are a thing right now. It is easy to blame data centers and AI but their energy needs only point out how antiquated our grid is and why that is a problem.

2nd Panel ( of three) was more consumer focused. Structurally we ( the consumer) pay for the profits of the utilities. And, guess what? We are paying a bit more than needed. A billion here, a billion there, but even that adds up. Those extra dollars are not trivial at the family level.

Consumer Advocate suggests that we need a law about those pesky energy suppliers who offer teaser rates and then jack it up once the teaser period ends. Yep, those companies suck too. Odd idea by Advocate to then send people back to their original utility company when teaser ended. Hmm...

President of Energy Association of PA, Andy Tubbs, on the first panel ( aka The Incumbents ) also suggested that welfare cheats, we know who you are, are now stealing our electricity too. Plus, the Energy Association has a real concern about Net Metering... yep, the solar has got to go.

Utility Industry ( incumbents ) response:

( S I L E N C E )

Then the usual spiels... PJM - we are doing everything we can possibly do with the exception of what is needed. Plus we are a non profit... our interests are as pure as the snow on your lawn here PA homeowners.

Background:
300,000 PA families had either gas or electric cut off due to non payment in 2025.

Over a 1,000,000 PA residents spend more than 10% of their income on utility bills, often cutting back on food or healthcare.

Transmission costs alone up 400% since 2014.

It is good to have plans / dreams.

Kudos on the design and execution.

But, seriously, that photo does not really highlight the solar… maybe get a drone ( not so expensive) and take a photo that shows the glass… better yet, take a photo when the snow is gone!

Weapons ? I thought you said whiskey…

Let it go…

Happy 4th of July America…

Now let’s get to work and return this to a government of the people, by the people and for the people.

First time rooting for Dodgers!

Congratulations.

Congratulations!

Great to see this information!

Thank you for helping people visualize grid mix.

Always enjoy seeing milestones like solar is now producing x % of current mix or solar is now outperforming this fossil fuel or that.
