There’s something spooky on our electric grid! It’s peakers - oil and gas plants that only run when demand for electricity hits a peak. Become a peakbuster with us!! (Nocoalnogas.org/peakbusters)

Even the owners of old and broken coal plants know it’s a bad idea to try to re-vamp the coal industry. The people demand clean energy, and that’s the way the energy system is moving. #ClimateAction #CleanEnergy #JustTransition

Our friends settled their case in court yesterday after being arrested protesting a fossil fuel peaker plant in Newington, NH. Read more: www.nocoalnogas.org/press-releases/five-no-coal-no-gas-activists-sentenced-in-court-after-acting-to-shut-down-polluting-oil-peaker-plants-in-new-hampshire
We have a vision for a world without #FossilFuels that values the health and wellbeing of all people and our planet. We will build a better #Energy grid without dirty oil plants!! #GreenSky #EnviroSky #ClimateJustice #ClimateAction #PlantByPlant

We are forcing them to change. The way the grid is managed right now services the fossil fuel owning hedge funds who keep dirty oil plants in their portfolios. It is not set up to help us transition to clean, renewable energy. SO! The Consumer Liaison Group meets 4x a year. The next one is in March!
The group used to be industry insiders and it was just a way for ISO-NE to tell them how things are going, share reports, etc. Not exciting. Then we infiltrated the group by electing our friends to the coordinating committee! Now ratepayers are actually getting to air their concerns, ask questions..
So #NoCoalNoGas has been taking our objections about the electricity grid directly to the groups that manage and oversee regional markets. The entity is called ISO-NE. They just so happens to have one public forum where we can freely attend: it’s called the Consumer Liaison Group. Stay with me..
Alrighty #NoCoalNoGas friends! We have an all-call this Thursday for people who want to help us shut down the dirty oil peaker plants in New England. We have better energy sources we can replace them with. If you want to join us the details are here:
www.nocoalnogas.org/events/allca...
Join us at nocoalnogas.org to get updates directly from the campaign. We are more powerful when we work together. Know of a peaker oil plant in your neighborhood? Reach out to us and we’ll help you call out that plant!
We have the means to transition to clean energy, to implement conservation efforts that reduce energy use, and to transform our electric grid into one that works for the people, instead of one that pollutes our communities and our planet. We will #DoWhatMustBeDone to build a better grid!
3) for a while this goal was to shut down the coal plant in Bow! This goal we won in 2024 with the announcement of a shut down date and clean energy transition plan. Now our goal is to transition all the fossil fuel peaker plants to clean energy or battery power. Especially the oil plants.
2) show what is possible. Both for ourselves and the greater community. We liberated coal from the last coal fired power plant in New England, blockaded coal trains, made a 180-foot banner to hang off a smokestack. We showed that if people in power won’t act then we are prepared to. Together.
We are the #NoCoalNoGas campaign! We came together in 2019 to form a community of resistance to fossil fuels. We have three goals.
1) build community and unity. This is the most important to us because we know to stop fossil fuels and transition to clean energy we need to rely on each other.
The #NoCoalNoGas campaign is shutting down fossil fuels in New England while we build community, show everyone that a better world is possible, and get this energy grid to transition to #CleanEnergy. If you’re in this region and fighting for #ClimateJustice we’d love to connect with you #EnviroSky
