With a week of big snowstorms bearing down on NH, I'm reminded that one of the key things I use twitter for is following excellent local meteorologists. Does anybody know if there are good regional meteo starter packs?

Enormous kudos to the Republican and Democratic leaders in the NH Legislature who are coming together to fix New Hampshire's never-been-used C-PACE program this year. Nice to see how bipartisan energy efficiency has become at the NH General Court. www.nhbr.com/opinion-new-...

Gotta love that everyone is finding that local advocacy is what's needed for the clean energy transition, but ummm instead of funding 50 national nonprofits that do mediocre work "with local partners" how about just fund 50 awesome state partners @volts.wtf pca.st/podcast/647d...

I firmly believe we should be pulling hard for hybrid hvac: a furnace plus a heat pump. This episode of HVAC Boundary Spanners with Abhi and I makes the case for them. The next episode is the case against. What sticks out to you? open.spotify.com/episode/5Jfr...

This is doooooope! I grew up in NH, but have never gone up the Cog. (My 8th grade class trip hiked up, and rode the train down, tho.) If they electrified it, I'd be on the first train to the top! www.caledonianrecord.com/news/local/t...

Listening back to Richard Miller's 2012 "Energy for Future Presidents" is a reminder of how fast the energy landscape can change. A huge area of focus is how to grow the US "syn-fuel" (gasoline from coal and natural gas!!) market. The feasibility of EVs is dismissed out of hand
