🌍 Lower energy bills, stronger grid.

In the Greenfield Recorder, ACT President Joe Curtatone highlights how battery storage cuts costs and boosts reliability.

💡 The takeaway? Clean energy solutions are ready—don’t let misinformation hold us back.

My Turn: Renewable energy and battery storage is the affordable choice for families. How do we get it right?
Massachusetts is facing a familiar crossroads: our climate is changing, our grid is under strain, and our communities are rightly asking tough questions about safety, cost, and accountability. This is what communities need to do, but those questions must be met with facts, not fear.

🔋 Battery Storage: Safer than Riding in a Car or Even a Plane!🔋

With battery energy storage systems (BESS) making headlines after isolated fire incidents, it’s more important than ever to separate fact from fear. orennia.com/insights/coo...

☀️ During peak solar hours, California often produces excess electricity that would otherwise go to waste. Now, those giant batteries scattered across the Mojave Desert capture that surplus and release it when the sun sets. @economist.com

💡 Why are your energy bills so high? It’s not energy efficiency programs like Mass Save — it’s fossil fuel volatility and outdated utility incentives.

In a powerful op-ed, @kylemurray.bsky.social of @acadiacenter.bsky.social breaks down what really drove up costs for New England this past winter.
Why is your energy bill so high? Blame natural gas volatility and utility profits  
The cost of natural gas infrastructure, generous utility profits, and the region’s continued fossil fuel investments left us ill-equipped to deal with an exceptionally cold winter.

🇺🇸 What does the fight for freedom mean if we don't have it at home?

📖 Read our op-ed on brain drain: www.utilitydive.com/news/climate...

📰 Last week, the Trump administration banned international students from enrolling at Harvard www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

#MemorialDay #ClimateBrainDrain
America’s climate brain drain is real — and it’s just getting started
While Washington debates the existence of climate change, countries like Germany, South Korea and the Netherlands are vigorously funding battery innovation, green hydrogen and next-gen energy storage.

New article from Hadley Barndollar (@masslive.bsky.social) quotes @joecurtatone.bsky.social and leaders from @enviroleaguema.bsky.social, @advancedenergyunited.org, and New England for Offshore wind on likely reach of Trump Anti-Wind Executive Orders.

www.masslive.com/news/2025/01...
Permitted offshore wind projects in New England likely untouchable for Trump
Federal interference in permitted offshore wind projects would undoubtedly end up in court and require the government to provide compensation to developers for their losses.
