Our Supply Chain Masterclasses Series is back. We are calling all Supply Chain Manufacturing Companies to sign up to attend the first in the upcoming mini-masterclass series looking at supply chain offshore wind opportunities. You can secure your place and register today. During the day, you will hear from Thistle Wind Partners, Forsyths Ltd, Scottish Enterprise, and ETZ Ltd. Tuesday 5th March 2024, Marcliffe Hotel, Aberdeen. Secondary Steel refers to elements that fit on the main (primary) structural elements. These elements enable functions such as turbine access and ancillary components protection. Secondary steel includes a wide range of subcomponents, from small-scale items such as brackets and doors to large structures such as I and J Tubes, boat landings and work platforms weighing up to 50 tonnes.

NEW! Polling shows Texans wants an "all of the above" approach when it comes to energy and strongly oppose federal efforts to ban gas-powered vehicles, with a supermajority of likely voters saying this will be an important issue for them when deciding who to vote for. From TAB President & CEO Glenn Hamer: "This new polling makes one thing clear: Texans want an 'all of the above' energy policy that utilizes our abundant fossil fuel resources while simultaneously investing in and developing renewable technologies. Texans overwhelmingly support an energy policy that embraces diversity in energy sources, which not only ensures energy security but also fosters economic growth and innovation. Texas Association of Business promotes commonsense policies that allow for consumer choice, limit burdensome regulations, support a diversified energy environment, and help us prepare for a prosperous future.” Read TAB's full statement and see additional poll highlights here: https://lnkd.in/gswnyJGQ

I've received many questions about these emergency generation assets that are tools in the CenterPoint Energy toolbox to cover a variety of risks, from load shed (like Uri) to storm response (like Nicholas, the 2023 tornadoes, and Beryl). Like our own toolboxes at home, not every tool is used in every situation, and not every emergency generation asset in our fleet is likely to be used in any one event. The largest (the 32MW units) were acquired post-Winter Storm Uri to bring up entire neighborhoods in the event of another failure to have enough electrons on the grid. The small and medium units are not as useful for that load shed risk we saw in Uri, because they bring up individual premises or much smaller parts of communities/neighborhoods. We need these large units in our toolbox to avoid a repeat of the hundreds of deaths that happened during Uri by bringing up entire portions of the grid on a temporary basis until the electrons are flowing normally again. These large units can be useful in a storm response in the event a transmission outage occurs, and the distribution system is intact enough to take power from the substation. That was not the case with Beryl; there was no material damage to the transmission system. But our small and medium units are life saving in a storm response. And we used our entire fleet of small and medium units, and even brought in more, to power critical facilities that did not themselves have backup power that worked during Beryl. These smaller and medium sized units can be used while we repair the larger distribution grid, until grid power is restored to those critical facilities. The entire fleet is necessary to save human life during emergency events. I understand the frustration of us not explaining before now why we were using the small and medium size units, but not the larger load shed units. I hope we never need to use any of them, but it is better to have them and not need them, than to need them and not have them.
