Or as Filipowski would say, no foul

Next up at GCPA: HVDC transmission led by Rob Gramlich

Bloom: Now's the time to go build some stuff! Luckey: Grain Belt received its approval in Illinois this morning! Sabrsula: SunZia got its final EIS from Land Management!

So many good points being made, hoping Amanda Durish Cook and Tom Kleckner are keeping up for RTO Insider™, yall are gonna wanna read an article about HVDC

Thanks to Customized Energy, Rob Gramlich and Gulf Coast Power Association for having me to talk about HVDC transmission. To run a grid on the weather, we need a grid that's bigger than the weather. There is no energy transition without transmission! At Pattern, we're excited to play our part!

To those who thought Duke basketball was going to fall off when Coach K left… you thought wrong.

Agree with the premise (does it make my life better or worse), and… yeah, #energytwitter definitely read IRA in its entirety!

A plan passed by the Texas Senate to finance the construction of gas power plants with public money could cost $18 billion, according to a document obtained by KUT. That puts the price around $8 billion over what plan sponsors had previously said. 1/ kut.org/energy-environ…

Even 7% gas share or just 3% coal used to directly or indireclty meet the new demand from electrolysis would blow the $1/kg limit of 1.5 kg CO2 per kg H2. This is why you must demonstrate ~all new electricity demand from H2 is met, hour-by-hour, with new, deliverable clean supply

I am #hiring. Pattern is looking for an Energy System Modeler / Developer. We are making our way to #INFORMS in Phoenix and will perform interviews there. Feel free to come and speak with us there . Please apply if you are a good fit for the role! careercenter.informs.org/jobs/19194544/…

This is the first SunZia tower with linemen on the structure. While this is in Arizona, it’s still a big milestone. As a 50+ year member of the IBEW, my dad would really have appreciated this moment. Wish he could have lived to see it.

I think we may be nearing the end of civilization

Back in January 12th 1882 the United Kingdom energised the first ever coal-fired power plant for public use (Edison Electric Light Station). This was the inflection point for the second industrial revolution! In July this year (2024), the UK's last coal-fired power plant

No one “on the other side” killed. You mean the “peaceful transfer of power” side? And you’re on the same side as the rioters… noted.

While many of us are laughing at how genuinely deranged Trump sounds tonight (and boy does he) I just cannot shake the deeply unsettling feeling of knowing that nearly half of our country thinks he is fit to do *any* job let alone run this country.

New selections under DOE's Transmission Facilitation Program just dropped. $1.4B will support 4 high-voltage lines: Southline Phase 2, Cimarron Link, Southern Spirit & the Aroostook Renewable Project. Will result in 1k miles of new Tx build & enable over 7k MW of capacity.

Very excited to be releasing this open-source dataset for use by power planners and modelers, alike. This will fill a gap in data needs for long term planning and resource adequacy studies!

What if the real lesson from DOGE is actually that the government is MORE efficient than we thought? This shit they keep finding and/or making up is really the best they can do?? I honestly figured the waste was far more expansive.
