I wonder where @Noahpinion got this chart?!.

Fellow Democrats,. The next few weeks will be messy. But let’s follow President Biden’s lead and prioritize the good of our country. Let’s have a positive contest to pick a new ticket and then unite behind them. Everything depends on it.

Absolutely amazing.
It's just after 5 AM in Glendora, CA. Over the next 65-ish hours until my flight back to Boston leaves, I will be attempting to ride every bus system in the LA region!

Is a grid report even real if Claire hasn't reviewed it?.
#energytwitter @ENERGY @NREL released their new report in the National Transmission Planning Study series, "Barriers and Opportunities To Realize the System Value of Interregional Transmission." It focuses on existing interregional Tx & is fascinating 🧵

What in Wayner's World even is Order 1920?.Now you can just download the fact sheet PDF.
I took this X thread and turned it into an official @RMIElectricity fact sheet! I hope it's useful for those looking for a more detailed Order 1920 explainer. Please let me know if you find errors or pieces that need to be clarified.

Amazing Jenny but you forgot to add:."– Didnt want to prove Richard Smalley Correct too soon".
Reasons solar industry analysts don't want to forecast that a terawatt gets built in a year, ever:. - axis on chart doesn't go that high. - makes wind industry feel bad. - can't find markets to put it all in without the number being clearly ridiculous for that specific market.

For some reason, found this interesting: "Two events in 1920 kicked off the era of change that Americans experienced. On August 18 the Nineteenth Amendment was passed, giving women the right to vote. And on November 2 the first commercially licensed radio broadcast was heard".

Imagine looking at this photo and thinking “Wow the problem is so much solar”. Interesting article but totally almost entirely neglects the massive recent increases in CA battery power.

Who would have thought the FF would be busy in the way home. Only one bus heading back. People left behind at Union Station. Folks having to stand for the entire ride back to Boulder. It’s been like this after Rockies games for 10 years. 🤷♂️.
