Control, not capacity, could be the next driver of US residential storage investment #energysky -- via pv magazine global:

Don't shoot people. Don't take away food from the hungry or medical assistance from the weak. Don't bomb girls schools. Don't ask your supporters to rough up your opponents. Don't rape women. And for goodness sake don't claim that ballrooms save lives

U.S. tipping culture sucks, but I don’t know any working class person who doesn’t appreciate a little extra money and I think people who tell you otherwise have never actually been poor in their lives “well, we have an enforced wage for this job!” are they thriving? is it a living wage?

This is as rude as seeing Maryland “Historic” license plates on like a 1998 Honda Civic

The attack on education in the US is not new, but the slow fuse that arguably started with Reagan is now setting off detonations across K-12 and higher education that are going to be incredibly difficult to walk back if we don’t treat this like the urgent crisis it is.

Jay Bhattacharya has ordered that a paper showing the effectiveness of COVID19 vaccines in preventing severe disease and hospitalization be suppressed and hidden. This man has been crying nonstop about political censorship for 6 years. But he’s the one who is actually doing it.

Absolutely absurd that in the year 2026 there is no solar panel emoji OR wind turbine emoji

We’re very sorry sir but you cannot bring your emotional support dragon in here.

What's your favourite pair of related/unrelated facts? I'll start: A human being is likely to survive an impact of about 40km/h. The top speed of a human is about 40km/h.

Pennsylvania's auditor general, a Republican, audited 210,000+ new voter registrations under Gov. Shapiro's new motor voter system to see if noncitizens were registering to vote. They found one. One. And that was because a PennDOT staffer erred. It was fixed before the driver left the office.

Not the final chapter. The stepping stone. A 600-ton excavator just went electric. Tethered to the grid, backed by a ~450 kWh buffer battery. This is how S-curves move. Solve what works, then scale. Mining was the holdout. Now it’s the proving ground. The inflection starts here. #Bettrification

I say this as a person with a polymer engineering degree, who used to hand out adhesives (from a fridge with 50+ options) as a major part of my job: Gorilla Glue is an excellent and versatile product.

The tariffs were very bad and I don't even need to argue on immediate economic impacts (I can but prefer this cause there's no counterarguement) The damage done by wrecking global trust in trade agreements with the US has a medium-long term impact that is unimaginably expensive to Americans

Waking up to discover that evidence has been released proving something we all knew. The Supreme Court's efforts to stop the Obama clean power plant rules were rooted in explicit, corrupt efforts to protect the fossil fuel industry.

Came across someone sharing one of my charts today calling it: “Strait of Batteries: the most important chart in energy.” The old world ran through the Strait of Hormuz. The new one runs through this chart. Costs down Storage up Energy is shifting from geopolitics to physics.

Great source of info on regionl grids from @gridstatus.io

"Lindsey Boylan refuses to disappear, even though we'd really like her to, because her vindication makes us look bad. Mamdani's endorsement of her, despite alignment on policies and her being an incredibly effective campaigner, must just be for spite" What dismissive horseshit this is

We should be learning from other countries...

LLMs can’t be sentient until they have a sole, George.

As a human and a citizen I am in favor of universal health care. As an employer I am VERY in favor of it.

A useful reminder that much of US truck culture is performative masculinity, not utility.

You'll have to ask Hibra, but I guess weight and warranty would stop moving 🔋. Batteries are so cheap now and getting cheaper they can do one 🚜at a time and use the🔋to reinforce weak rural grids (#Storm Eowyn- might even get a DS3 payment to do so) @hannahdaly.ie has a thread on reusing her EV 🔋

The amazing, letter-perfect performance of NASA this week is a ferocious rebuke to the right-wing fools who constantly tell us that for-profit businesses always do a job better than the government.

This is amazing. Only property owners could vote, and the climate hawks were wildly outspent

Wow, and wow again. Clean energy candidates have beaten a concerted campaign by Turning Point USA and captured a board majority at the Salt River Project, Arizona's 2nd-largest utility Lots of us pitched in on this fight, not knowing if a win was possible. It was! www.ariseia.org/news/clean-e...

This comms guru did more than any human to mobilize $$$millions in aid to those who Trump/Vance/Noem/Bognino made to suffer. Got biz? Got a cause? HIRE my hero Ashley, because she is effing dogged AND effing brilliant. She helped me pass 100 percent clean energy law (which is another cool thing.)

Critically, the First International Conference on the Just Transition Away from Fossil Fuels will be governed by majority rule, thus preventing a handful of countries from sabotaging progress as petrostates did at Cop30. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We had a shot at "replace the lawbreaking president with the center of the opposition" and it failed in the singular goal of preventing a second Trump term even though it took office mere days after his attempted coup. We cannot afford a second failure, nor really can the world.

Any Dem 28 nominee that does not pledge to fully prosecute every single admin member for war crimes and corruption should not deserve a single vote in the Primary. And incompetent seat warmers - including Jeffries and Schumer - must be forced to resign or retire.

TIL funeral potatoes are a thing. A delicious thing. From the @kevinmkruse.bsky.social Easter Dinner (what’s yours?) thread Thanks @mariablack.bsky.social for the great explanation!

Hi everyone, I slid on my back across sharp sticks and leaves while barefoot to get this photo of a gorgeous Red-shouldered Hawk that landed in our backyard today, so please look at my picture 😁

@chrisnelder.bsky.social re sub-Saharan Africa: are the folks you are talking to seeing direct current deployments connecting PV, loads and batteries and forgoing AC distribution altogether? Chinese manufacturers seem to be on it… www.mcbcircuitbreakers.com/supplier-415...
