Excellent work by @ZitoSalena in @dcexaminer capturing America’s manufacturing resurgence under @POTUS. It was a privilege to join Salena in Pittsburgh to discuss how companies like @PoweredByEos are reshoring manufacturing and creating jobs across America’s heartland. washingtonexaminer.com/opini…

"Eos moved into a shuttered Westinghouse plant, revitalized it, and is now producing some of the most advanced batteries in the world to meet rising energy demand.” — @AlexFitzDC We're grateful to @ZitoSalena for highlighting the recent visit by U.S. DOE Associate Deputy Secretary, Alex Fitzsimmons, to our Western Pennsylvania facilities. Her article explores how Eos is transforming a historic manufacturing site into a hub for advanced battery production and American energy innovation. Read more here: washingtonexaminer.com/opini…
WARRENDALE, Pennsylvania — Joe Mastrangelo stood on the mezzanine overlooking the factory floor of Eos Energy Enterprises’ new plant, his eyes welling as he looked out over the rows of yellow-caged robotic cells, conveyors, and steel gantries stretching nearly the length of the building below. “I come and stand here every morning, and I still can’t believe that this is where we are today,” the Eos CEO said. “I am both so humbled and also proud of what we are building.” washingtonexaminer.com/opini…

Thanks for having me @PoweredByEos! 🇺🇸
Proud to welcome @AlexFitzDC of the DOE to our Western Pennsylvania manufacturing operations this week. @ENERGY is working to strengthen grid security and reduce America's reliance on foreign-made equipment, including battery storage. Eos was built to meet exactly that need. We design and manufacture zinc-based long-duration energy storage in the U.S., powered by a domestic supply chain and a skilled Pennsylvania workforce. At Thorn Hill, Alex saw how the DOE's loan program is helping us expand American manufacturing capacity. Thank you, Associate Deputy Secretary for the visit, and thank you @ZitoSalena for telling the story of American manufacturing.

How will @ENERGY’s recently announced SPARK investments in the grid improve Americans’ lives? Deputy Secretary Danly says they will reduce customer bills and unleash “more jobs, more opportunities, more companies, more manufacturing.” 🔥

Go Katie! 🇺🇸
A stronger grid means greater resilience when storms hit!⚡️🌴 Assistant Secretary Katie Jereza visited @EntergyNOLA to see how upgraded distribution poles are improving reliability for 1,900+ homes & businesses—helping reduce storm outages and deliver $7.4M in estimated savings.

And we’re just getting started!
Two landmark wins for geothermal in 72 hours: @ENERGY awarded $99 million to 21 pilot projects, and @fervoenergy's Cape Station achieved First Power. DOE sees geothermal scaling to 90 gigawatts by 2050, a hundredfold increase from today.

Geothermal is here for a good time AND a long time! Thx @JMPyper
“The next decade will be the geothermal decade,” says @AlexFitzDC at @ClearPathFound’s #ClimateWeekNYC event. Just today @ENERGY announced nearly $100M for 21 projects to advance US geothermal development: energy.gov/articles/energy-d…
