I commend the Trump Administration for our great cooperation in reaching an energy deal that allows Equinor to resume construction of Empire Wind. This will benefit both our countries & deliver energy to thousands of US households. @POTUS @SecScottBessent @SecretaryBurgum

📣 The Empire Wind 1 project is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to power our future and a vital part of New York’s resilient and diverse energy portfolio. Lifting the stop-work order on the Empire Wind 1 project will secure jobs for 1,500. @WSJ: wsj.com/business/energy-oil/…

Diagraming out a 1,000+ page order is a challenge, but with a little help (Sue Glatz, @ClaireWayner, Pauline Foley and others), we diagrammed out FERC's Order No. 1000 on transmission planning, including scenario plan development & cost allocation! Hope it's useful! 🔌💡

If you're calling for more dispatchable power in @pjminterconnect, take note of this Texas solar + storage success story!
"Last year, the grid operator issued 11 such calls for conservation, 'compared to none this year,' Lewin said.
'The biggest difference is a whole lot more solar and a whole lot more storage.'”
