Look at that line. Up and to the right. Are you willing to bet your business that it suddenly reverses? You’re not just competing in your market. You’re competing with Google, OpenAI, X, Meta, and Amazon for the same electrons. They don’t negotiate. They consume. Meanwhile most operators treat power like office supplies. Hope is the strategy. “Maybe prices cool off.” Cute. Treat electricity like a strategic input, not office supplies: ▪️ Measure the load by panel, line, and shift. ▪️ Buy certainty: hedge price and reserve capacity. ▪️ Control peaks: stagger big motor starts; avoid overlaps. ▪️ Shift work: move energy-heavy steps off-peak. ▪️ Squeeze waste: VFDs, air discipline, heat recovery. ▪️ Generate on-site: solar + storage; CHP where heat helps. Margins don’t care about your feelings. DM us for a customized energy assessment of your facility.

Engie is bullish on batteries. And the data backs it up. Lolita Carry, Director of Portfolio Strategy at ENGIE North America Inc., explains why BESS isn't just an add-on to their 20GW wind and solar pipeline across ERCOT, PJM, MISO, and CAISO. It's a risk management tool. 🎧 You can listen to the latest episode of Transmission on your podcast platform of choice, or the Modo Energy YouTube channel.

🚨 BREAKING: Over 105 lawmakers from 10 states have sent a joint letter to the PJM Interconnection urging immediate action to accelerate renewable energy deployment in the Mid-Atlantic and Mid-West. As electricity demand surges, PJM delays are holding back renewable energy projects — driving up costs for consumers and straining grid reliability. The letter outlines five key steps PJM can take to move forward to support a more affordable, sustainable, and reliable energy future. 💡PJM is a regional organization that manages the electric grid and plans future energy needs across 13 states, helping decide which power sources — like wind, solar, or gas — get built and how much electricity costs. 🔗 Learn more and read the full letter on NCEL's website: https://lnkd.in/evNUYtA2 #RenewableEnergy #PJM #CleanEnergyLeadership #EnergyAffordability #StateLeadership

Colorado ranchers, curious how agrivoltaics could fit your operation? 🐮 Our new blog, “Agrivoltaics for Colorado Ranchers: Introducing Community Solar,” breaks down how even low-energy-use ranches can benefit through community solar development. Diversified revenue. Continued grazing. Local energy. What do you think? Why should Colorado ranchers explore agrivoltaics? https://lnkd.in/gHKTHk7R #ColoradoRanching #WorkingLands #Agrivoltaics #CommunitySolar #RuralColorado #LivestockProducers

Clean energy is ready to go. But it’s stuck in line. The results of PJM’s latest capacity auction underscored what we’ve known for a while: interconnection delays are holding back new resources, raising costs, and slowing progress. The need for queue reform has never been more urgent. United's Policy Director Jon Gordon breaks down the challenge facing PJM in this Canary Media Inc. article. ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/e4s7w92z
