can I interest you in some light permitting reform?

Folks, I’ve officially made it - I’ve been followed by the New York State grid operator NYISO. You know, only the team that keeps the lights on for the biggest city in the nation! I try not to let the electricity go to my head. Let me know if you do control room tours @nyiso.com ⚡️⚡️⚡️ #energysky

According to Mark Christie, New Jersey is down 2.6 GW of generation over the last 10 years, meaning they’re reliant on imports (and their power prices are about to go through the roof). They still have a plan to build 11 GW of offshore wind but that’s not happening under Trump? @jessedjenkins.com

It doesn’t get enough press that authoritarian manufacturing superpower has built a complete monopoly across the critical energy inputs needed to win the century while we’ve mostly twiddled our thumbs and shipped ad-tech. Democratic-aligned countries should LOOSE money to re-shore this #energysky

IBEW President Kenneth Cooper, “Demand for skilled electricians has never been higher. Infrastructure investments, expanding energy technologies like wind and solar, nuclear, new high-tech manufacturing centers, means our economy is hungry for a new generation of electrical workers.” #energysky
