Energy efficiency is one of the smartest investments Maryland can make, but outsized utility profits have been needlessly driving up costs to consumers. It’s time to update EmPOWER to right size Maryland’s utility profits and by passing HB864! https://bit.ly/empower24

I see a lot of commentary making the case that we overemphasize supply-related resource adequacy strategies when energy efficiency programs could be a more cost-effective alternative. If you are inclined to make this argument, what exactly do you have in mind? Is it simply that we'd have less risk of supply shortfalls during extreme weather events if we had better insulated or otherwise more efficient homes?

Developing a stock water system that provides cattle access to clean, pumped water allows for: ✅improved water quality ✅healthier herds ✅better gains and higher weaning weights for calves ✅improved longevity of water supply in a dugout, dam or pond However, building and maintaining a water system, such as a solar system, windmill or pipeline comes with a cost. 🧰Use the BCRC Water Systems Calculator to help determine the cost of setting up a stock water system and the potential return on investment: https://lnkd.in/gsRix69G

The Harrison Power Station in Harrison County, WV, is a powerhouse in every sense of the word! With an impressive 2,000 MW generating capacity, it stands as one of the largest power plants in the state, fueled by none other than West Virginia coal. This mighty plant consumes a staggering 6.5 million tons of West Virginia coal annually, making it the largest consumer of coal in the state. What's even more remarkable is that the coal used at the plant is sourced directly from the adjacent Harrison County Mine, delivered seamlessly via conveyor belt. It's a prime example of efficiency and local resource utilization, being one of only two "mine mouth" power plants in the state. Every year, the Harrison County plant churns out an astonishing 13 million megawatt hours of electricity, powering homes, businesses, and industries across the region. But its impact extends far beyond just energy production. The plant is a vital economic engine, supporting 414 direct jobs and an additional 1,066 indirect jobs in the local economy. These hardworking individuals contribute to the plant's total annual wage impact of $178 million, helping to sustain families and communities. When we talk about economic impact, the Harrison County plant truly shines, with a staggering total economic impact of over $1.1 billion annually. That's a testament to its role as a cornerstone of the local economy and a driver of prosperity for the region. Let's celebrate the Harrison Power Station and the incredible role it plays in powering our communities and fueling economic growth!

Massachusetts public power utility Taunton Municipal Lighting Plant TMLP has received $1,000,000 from the state as part of the state’s $4 billion plan tied to the American Rescue Plan Act funding. The utility will use this funding to launch the TMLP Saves™ -- Heat Pump and Zero-Interest Loan Program. The TMLP Saves™ Heat Pump Program includes rebates on the installation of a ccASHP, whole home and partial home, or Ground Source Heat Pumps, with a Zero-Interest Loan through the TMLP Saves™ program for energy-saving improvements, up to $25,000 with terms up to 7 years.

When we build new homes, they stick around for a long time. How we build them matters - you pay lots of utility bills, and if you need to make improvements in an existing building its a lot more expensive than if it had just been built right the first time. Here's a good article about why building energy codes matter....and my colleague Cherylyn Kelley works on them almost every day so she should know!
Strong energy codes make homes more energy-efficient and reduce their carbon footprint, but opposition can complicate things. IMT's Cherylyn Kelley spoke to the Washington Post about the influence that federal funding can have on states' interests in adopting stronger energy codes.

It’s Energy Savers Week. Should we be talking about ways to make homes warmer and more affordable? Yes, absolutely… but we are taking action too. We’ve been addressing the insulation needs of vulnerable homes. Our advisors can talk you through the process of securing government funding towards changes that will make your home warmer and more affordable. The Great British Insulation Scheme is just one way to do this. Leave a comment if you’d like to talk about making the eligibility process easier. #BigEnergySavingWeek #EnergyEfficiency #SaveEnergy #LowerYourBills

Top stories today 📰 Weekend press: Thames has six weeks to agree survival plan https://buff.ly/3vGN1fK In our latest round-up of sector coverage in the national media, Thames Water has until 23 May to present a new turnaround strategy to Ofwat. Meanwhile, local opposition to new reservoirs is explored and millions of pounds in potential heat pump grants remains unclaimed. ⚡ Slowdown in grid connection queue growth likely to be blip https://buff.ly/3JogT3m A slowdown in the number of projects registering for a grid connection is a blip due to the introduction of a two-step process for vetting such applications, National Grid ESO has said. Former energy minister Graham Stuart recently confirmed that data from the ESO shows that 1,530 energy projects were in the transmission connection queue at the end of February. The ESO recently told Utility Week that the number of projects in the Transmission Entry Capacity (TEC) register had increased by just four. However an ESO spokesperson said the key factor behind the slow growth in the queue over the last month is that the ESO is focusing on processing second-stage applications under the two-step grid connection process. ❌ One-third of female utilities staff want to quit https://buff.ly/3JkG1bs One-third of women working in the utilities sector say they are either very or quite likely to leave the industry in the next three years. That is the finding of a survey by the WUN - Womens Utilities Network which polled 375 of its members to understand the experiences of women working in the sector. The report found that at a time when utilities need to attract and retain more talent, women are routinely facing situations that are hindering their careers.
