There is still important work ahead. As the bill moves to the Senate, we will focus on defending #MassSave, a proven program that has delivered $40B in savings to MA residents & businesses over 15 years.

After year of skyrocketing utility bills, Eversource reports skyrocketing profits Eversource credited rising gas and electric rates with fueling higher revenues.

After a winter of record-high gas & #ElectricBills, Eversource reported $1.69B in 2025 profits - a stark reminder that, even when utilities claim to prioritize #Affordability, there is a fundamental misalignment between utility business models & residents' best interests www.wcvb.com/article/ever...

Endangerment Finding Repeal Ignores Settled Science, Puts Lives at Risk The Environmental Protection Agency’s final repeal of its endangerment finding poses serious risks for wildlife, communities, and public health — and runs contrary to the agency’s mission and obligations under the Clean Air Act.

“No one will be immune to the health outcomes, worsening #ClimateImpacts & job loss resulting from this decision. The people deserve better," - ELM's @sustainabr.bsky.social on the EPA's Endangerment Finding repeal.

State takes control of battery storage permits as towns grapple with controversial projects - Boston Business Journal Massachusetts aims to procure 5,000 megawatts of battery energy storage by 2030, with major projects proposed in Everett, Chelsea and other cities.

“Ultimately, ELM’s mission is to support the climate and our Commonwealth's natural resources. If I was concerned that these (BESS) systems posed a risk to either, I wouldn't support them.” - Erin Smith, ELM's Clean Grid Director.

The Green Budget Coalition is disappointed to see proposed FY27 cuts to enviro & #Energy agencies. These programs protect air, water, #PublicHealth & natural resources - the Coalition looks forward to working toward a budget that provides the necessary funding to support this essential work.

Why a federal judge’s ruling has given some hope to Mass.’ sputtering offshore wind sector Judge says Revolution Wind was "likely to suffer irreparable harm."

“The court understands how arbitrary & unpredictable calls from the [fed.] admin. are.” Monday's ruling on Revolution Wind matters: #OffshoreWind is key to affordable, reliable #CleanEnergy & federal stop-work orders put ratepayers, workers & #GridReliability at risk

Thank you, @massgovernor.bsky.social, for standing strong on #OffshoreWind. After federal stop-work orders hit 5 projects, MA must keep pushing. Offshore wind will bring: clean, #AffordableEnergy for 400k+ homes, 56k jobs & $65B in investment.

Thank Gov. Healey: secure.ngpvan.com/DLgtjNu2jUq4...

Trump’s oil obsession will cost New England thousands of jobs. Well, we all need to sacrifice, right? - The Boston Globe The president is looking after his friends in oil and gas, at the expense of New England’s wind industry.

Yvonne Abraham hits the nail on the head — blocking #OffshoreWind helps #FossilFuel interests only. Offshore wind is powering homes, creating jobs, strengthening our grid & lowering costs. MA can’t let special interests derail the clean #CleanEnergy transition
