Really stupid to shut it down and now asking the public to conserve.

The collapse of America They're demolishing a coal plant in Tennessee like the Paris Agreement is law — but it was never ratified. This isn’t climate policy, it’s globalist obedience.

Coal is still king!

This is Tennessee not California. When you can’t supply power to us, you’re going to lose your jobs. Complete Idiocracy on display here.

The USA burns coal much cleaner than China or India. Why shut down coal fired Stations in the USA? I believe America can come up with improved technology for old solutions. Such as... How can more energy be produced by burning coal?

Wow, those stacks coming down is wild! Excited to see what’s next for the site—maybe @GavinBrookswin has some ideas for clean energy projects there? The future’s looking bright!

Outstanding job 💪🏽

I guess, Trump didn't save Big Beautiful Coal.

Well, since the stacks are going down doesn't that mean our electricity bill will fall just like both of the stacks. I am tired of paying outrageous electricity bill give us a break. Just a little one would work.

Data centers and AI are driving enormous energy demand, and Florida has to be prepared for it. If we’re going to support growth, innovation, and emerging technologies, we need reliable energy on demand. It has to be available now, not years after the infrastructure is built. Florida must stay ahead by investing in resilient, dependable power generation that protects our economy, our grid, and our quality of life. #JayForFlorida

We’re building a first-of-its-kind large-scale solar field on a closed coal ash site in western Kentucky! At the same site as our Shawnee Fossil Plant, construction for the Project Phoenix solar field is well underway! Using innovative technology, our skilled crews are installing a whopping 240,000 solar panels, all without disturbing the material underground. Once online, the site will generate 100 megawatts of power for the region – enough to power 58,000 homes! ☀️🏡 This project is transforming a former coal ash site into a new opportunity to power the Tennessee Valley and pushing innovative technology further for our country! 🇺🇸⚡️

Now we have information from our intelligence that the Russian military has placed objects resembling explosives on the roof of several power units of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Perhaps to simulate an attack on the plant. Perhaps they have some other scenario. But in any case, the world sees – can't but see – that the only source of danger to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is Russia and no one else. Unfortunately, there was no timely and large-scale response to the terrorist attack on the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant. And this may incite the Kremlin to commit new evil. It is the responsibility of everyone in the world to stop it, no one can stand aside, as radiation affects everyone.

It is now the seventh day – something that has never happened before – of an emergency situation at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant. Because of Russian shelling, the plant has been cut off from power, disconnected from the electrical grid, and is being supplied with electricity by diesel generators. This is extraordinary. The generators and the plant were not designed for this, have never operated in this mode for long, and we already have information that one generator has failed. It is Russian shelling that prevents repair of the power lines to the plant and the restoration of basic safety. This is a threat to everyone – no terrorist in the world has ever dared to do to a nuclear plant what Russia is doing. And it is right that the world does not stay silent.

The Slovyansk Thermal Power Plant in the city of Mykolaivka, Donetsk Oblast, has ceased all power generation operations today due to the deteriorating security situation and approaching frontline. Currently, the plant is just over 4 km from the frontline and is regularly attacked by Russian FPV drones and artillery. Part of the staff will remain at the plant to ensure the transit of electricity from other regions through the electrical substations there, continue operating cooling ponds no. 1 and 2, and continue supplying water to the city of Mykolaivka. The Slovyansk TPP was the last power plant in Ukrainian-controlled Donbas. This now means that Ukrainian-controlled Donbas will no longer produce any electricity itself, forcing the remaining liveable cities such as Slovyansk and Kramatrosk to source electricity from Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk Oblasts.

I have the highest net approval of any candidate in this Texas Senate race, and there’s a reason for that. Texans are ready for a new generation of leadership. Leaders who still have skin in the game, energy in their stride, and the best years of their lives ahead of them. I’m stepping into the fray at the peak of my strength to give back to the country I love. Now, I’m ready to fight just as hard for Texas as I have for Congressional District 38, and to help return President Trump to the White House. The time for a new generation of America First leadership is NOW. 🇺🇸

Today we’re announcing $1B of Series C funding and calling on engineers, operators, and creatives everywhere to join the charge to build the future of American power. In less than two years, Base has become one of the fastest growing energy companies in the country. We’ve deployed more than 100 MWh of battery capacity, partnered with major homebuilders and utilities, and scaled across Texas. This funding will accelerate the buildout of our first factory in the heart of Austin at the former Austin American-Statesman printing press. But the biggest challenges still lie ahead, as demand soars and the aging grid struggles to keep up. We’re looking for problem-solvers who want to build technology to accelerate America’s growth.
