On Saturday, batteries set a new record in ERCOT, supplying 9% of power on an evening w/ high thermal outages & low wind. Prices spiked to near the max for 5 minutes, 4,300 megawatts of storage surged onto the grid (and demand went down ~2,000 MW) & things went back to normal. (h/t @gridstatus.io

A recent study finds long-duration energy storage is essential to getting more clean electricity on the grid, and could dramatically cut power prices during times of peak demand. 🔌💡 grist.org/climate/long...

Energy Exemplar has got another thing coming if they think this is how to stay competitive with open source models. This just tells me that the open energy modeling community is onto something! 🔌💡

Hey ppl of #energysky : there's been issues lately with properly-tagged 🔌💡 posts not showing up in the feed. I'm hoping it has to do with site growing pains. Working on it! I know it's important that this feed works for all of us :D If you see this issue, please tag me w deets of how you posted

Hey @skyfeed.app, users of the EnergySky feed I maintain have been reporting that it seems to be many posts with the correct tags - it should include every post with 'energysky' (case insensitive) or '🔌💡', but @gregor.us has been running some tests that aren't getting picked up. Any ideas? 🙏

MA’s Clean Energy Bill, passed late last week, has a great bit for the big batteries crowd: a procurement mandate for 5,000 MW of energy storage by 2030, 750 MW of which must be long duration storage (defined as 10-24 hours) and 750 MW of which must be multi-day storage (defined as 24+ hours) 🔌💡

I wrote this a few days ago — it’s a busy week so I didn’t do much editing, but people are finding it very handy in getting their Bluesky groove on. If you have friends who need some help or you haven’t figured things out yet, hope it helps:
