Zero Homes’ software can eliminate in-home consultations and make heat pumps easier and cheaper to install. It just raised $16.8 million to keep cutting those “soft costs.”

Our North Carolina-based reporter @elizouzts.bsky.social let Duke Energy control her thermostat. Even during last month’s extreme cold, she doesn't regret it.

This huge new battery will help Maine meet its clean power goals.

2025 may have been a tough year for clean energy in the U.S., but grid batteries still broke a deployment record.

at least there aren't any data centers burning TIRES for electricity yet. at least, not that i know of

in retrospect, it was so quaint how concerned i was about a handful of old power plants getting a new lease on life to mine bitcoin, but it really was a sign of where things would go with the ai and data center boom

NEW: Judge Rufe denies DOJ request for a stay of Monday's ruling in the case over the Trump admin's effort to erase slave-related information from the President's House in Philadelphia pending an appeal to the Third Circuit. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

There's three votes for anything on the supreme court. If trump said "I'm the god-king of arrakis" he'd get three votes and a lengthy opinion about the long history and tradition of english common law with regards to the spice melange

Half of our agricultural land is used for beef that provides 3% of our calories. Nobody likes it when I bang my spoon on my high chair about this but eventually we need to grapple with it.

Federal officials now project that Lake Powell will "most probably" drop below power pool level — meaning Glen Canyon Dam will no longer be able to generate hydropower — before the end of this year: www.landdesk.org/p/the-colora... via @landdesk.bsky.social

Quoting George Orwell right out of the gate! Judge Cynthia Rufe storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Excellent, but lost the punchline: slowing clean energy drives the grid to fossil; higher-cost fossil drives money from customers to Trump donors.

Ohio lawmakers consider bill that would essentially ban solar and wind projects www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Nicely done, @jeffstjohn.bsky.social, with a useful fact check on Chris Wright: www.canarymedia.com/articles/tra...

“From Virginia to Texas the clean energy economy is still moving full steam ahead” This was just 5 days ago btw

“That isn’t going to come from the demolished halls of the East Wing in Washington, D.C. It is going to come from local leaders who are committed to lowering their constituents’ bills. From Virginia to Texas, the clean energy economy is still moving full steam ahead.”

"And that path goes straight through state capitols, county commission meetings, and mayor’s offices across the country. Now is the time for climate and clean energy leaders to focus on where we can make the biggest impact."

“The vast majority of this country’s climate commitments can be met at the state and local levels. There is a clear path forward to building the clean energy economy in America with or without the support of the White House."

Some thoughts from Climate Cabinet Action Executive Director @spears.bsky.social on today's announcement that the Trump administration will attempt to unilaterally repeal the endangerment finding:

Are solar farms in Ohio being denied due to faked local opposition? @canarymedia.com's Kathianne Kowalski does the work of checking the names and addresses — and it sure looks like there are a lot of fabricated "local" opponents to it: www.canarymedia.com/articles/sol... #energysky

Regulatory staff flip-flop, faked comments & other evidence in Ohio's Crossroads Solar case raise big questions about whether local government opposition to renewable energy should trump statewide needs and benefits. @canarymedia.com @ejtodaynews.bsky.social www.canarymedia.com/articles/sol...

Canary Media is hiring a development director! We’re looking for someone to build on our newsroom’s strong base of existing foundation and individual donor support while catalyzing the next phase of growth.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright says wind and solar were "a cost center" and "not actually helpful" for the East Coast grid during Winter Storm Fern. He ignored renewables' year-round value, the Texas solar-battery boom, and winter risks to fossil fuels: www.canarymedia.com/articles/tra... #energysky

New York City needs more batteries to cushion peak power demands and close dirty power plants. "Community battery" projects could help a lot—and NineDot Energy's new $431M financing will let it build 494 megawatt-hours of them in the next two years: www.canarymedia.com/articles/bat... #energysky

Ohio is poised to block a 94-MW solar farm because of local pushback — even though a substantial number of public comments opposing the installation appear to be fabricated. @kmkowalski.bsky.social investigates: www.canarymedia.com/articles/sol...

These Colorado utilities are fighting a Trump administration order forcing a coal plant to stay open, saying it’ll saddle customers with millions of dollars in unnecessary costs.

The number two state for wind, Iowa, is "essentially closed for business". "It’s not a fair fight, with one side repeating a litany of claims found on anti-wind websites, and the wind power companies obligated to stick to facts that will stand up in court" www.canarymedia.com/articles/win...

Keeping coal plants running could cost these Colorado utilities and their customers millions of dollars — so they’re fighting the Trump administration’s stay-open orders.

So did they get the funding? Did we really allow this shit to go on? I'm seeing lots of smiles and laughing up there. I can't believe we watch these nightmare videos of citizens being murdered and kids being kidnapped and put in camps with measles and no one cares.

Century Aluminum & Emirates Global Aluminium are teaming up on a new aluminum smelter. Huge test of whether the companies can find affordable, clean power fast enough to actually build a low-carbon aluminum backbone in the U.S. ✍🏽 @mariagallucci.bsky.social www.canarymedia.com/articles/cle...

When the bullcrap Department of Energy report came out, these most excellent climate scientists responded to it with hard facts and good science: sites.google.com/tamu.edu/doe...

Terrible, slapdash work to undercut decades of careful scientific research on emissions and their threat to our health and the planet. www.edf.org/media/newly-...

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

On tonight’s White House agenda: Trump and guests will get a private screening of MELANIA, the documentary about the First Lady, @thr.com reports. Attendees include Apple CEO Tim Cook, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, Mike Tyson, per the article.

Our country was founded on resistance to a tyrant.
