Wow, so cool to hear from all the folks here in Franklin County who built Northfield Mountain! You can hear the pride.
Last summer, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of Northfield Mountain — our pumped-hydro energy storage facility and a true engineering marvel. Hear current and former FirstLight team members discuss the past, present and future of this giant battery: youtu.be/f-CMMgdTV68

Social media and newspapers are flooded with myths about heat pumps.
Let's take them one by one in this thread.
iCons is a cool award-winning undergraduate STEM program @UMassAmherst - they are currently featuring stories of #cleanenergywomen: umass.edu/gateway/umass-stor…
Hey #mapoli friends, some great ideas in here for moving the ball on building efficiency and other clean energy policy challenges from the smart folks @RegAssistProj

"When they were needed most, local #hydro resources ramped up from about 900 MW to 2,200 MW during the afternoon, around the same time many of us were putting holiday roasts in the oven for dinner." Read more via @CommonWealthMag and @abartontweets: commonwealthmagazine.org/ene…
Thank you to all the hardworking employees @nationalgridus and @eversource who are working hard today and on Christmas to get everyone’s power delivered! And thank you to all the people working at power plants to send us juice!
Great reporting on one of the region’s top answers to the need for #decarbonization
With 50 years serving New England under its belt, Northfield Mountain continues to play a critical role in the region's #energy outlook. Check out @4cast4you + @wbz's deep dive on our flagship #pumpedhydro asset coined "The Bat Cave" feat. @abartontweets. cbsnews.com/boston/news/the-…
We need EVERYONE working on #decarbonization. Not just some of the brains. ALL of the brains.
A staggering 70% of the U.S. workforce for wind and solar electricity generation is male — even worse than the gender gap in coal and gas power generation. Learn more in the #ChartOfTheWeek with reporting by @MariaVirginiaO: bit.ly/3QybZC2
Looking forward to seeing everyone today for our second annual paddle! Perfect day for boat-n-brew. How we do it in #the413

Happy #HydroDay! So cool to see DOE recognizing the key role that pumped storage will play in the #cleanenergy transition!
Happy #HydroDay!🌊 Did you know that about 95% of all grid-scale energy storage capacity in the US is provided by pumped storage #hydropower (PSH)? PSH is key to creating a clean, flexible & reliable grid, which is why we’re celebrating! See PSH in action: energy.gov/eere/water/how-pu…
