Oh, look! Links!

September 13, 2016

My links page is effectively my business launch pad . . . if I maintain it. Been awhile. I've cleaned up about a dozen links, improved a few to point at improvements at PJM.

U.S. energy-related carbon dioxide emissions increase in past two years

Another look back at Polar Vortex

March 25, 2015

FERC recently released its 2014 State of the Energy Markets. The state of the markets is . . . strong.

March 25, 2015

Bloomberg Business reports: “The Supreme Court has been by-and-large supportive of the EPA in upholding their actions,” said William Bumpers, a lawyer who heads the climate-change practice at Baker Botts in Washington. “So there has been a lot of discussion about whether this conservative court ...
