Duke Energy is betting new battery-storage facilities will help it use more renewable energy Battery storage helps energy companies deploy solar power when it is most needed.

"Across the Carolinas, Duke Energy Corporation now has around 250 #megawatts of #batteryStorage capabilities.
But by 2034, the goal is to have 5 #gigawatts of it." #solar #renewables

This isn’t just about #megawatts —it’s about momentum. Every offshore wind delay strengthens the case for fossil fuel expansion. The infrastructure we choose today shapes our energy future tomorrow.

We need to accelerate #cleanenergy, not retreat from it. Offshore wind is critical. Let’s build it.

Texas Awaits Surge in Power Demand as Temperatures Rise Texas anticipates a surge in power demand beginning Tuesday, potentially setting a record for the month as temperatures rise. According to ERCOT, the agency responsible for managing most of the state’s electrical grid, current power supply appears sufficient, but the focus is on meeting the escalating demand. Experts project a peak demand of approximately 84,000 megawatts, significantly higher than the 77,000 megawatts used in May of last year. The state's rapid population and business growth, particularly the increasing power needs of data centers, are driving this expansion. Texas is actively exploring strategies to effectively double its power grid capacity, a growth rate not seen since the 1980s. ERCOT’s forecasts indicate a projected increase of nearly 50,000 megawatts needed by 2030. To illustrate the scale, one megawatt can power roughly 250 homes during peak usage. Recent discussions reveal a mix of optimism and concern regarding the state’s grid expansion efforts, acknowledging the expected costs which are likely to impact consumers. The need for grid upgrades drives expenses, with consumers potentially bearing the burden of replacing aging equipment. The Texas legislature is playing a crucial role, with multiple bills related to the power grid currently under consideration in the House, including Senate Bill 6, which aims to improve infrastructure and reliability and is currently pending in a House committee after passing the Senate.
