Great River Energy plans to install a 1.5 megawatt iron-air battery system next to its natural gas peaking plant in Cambridge, about 45 miles north of the Twin Cities, sometime next year. Capturing excess energy for later useInterest in battery storage is surging as electric utilities retire baseload power plants that burn coal or gas, and add more wind and solar. Tim Walz signed a bill setting a 2040 deadline for electric utilities to transition to carbon-free sources of power. Mateo Jaramillo, the company’s co-founder and CEO, formerly worked on battery storage at Tesla. Xcel’s Chris Clark said he expects the utility will use a mix of different storage technologies, including lithium-ion batteries.

Alec Baldwin Sued by Three ‘Rust’ Crew Members for ‘Blast Injuries’

Three “Rust” crew members sued Alec Baldwin and the film’s producers on Monday, alleging they have suffered anxiety and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of the shooting death of the film’s cinematographer. According to the suit, all three were in close proximity to Baldwin when the gun was fired, and suffered “blast injuries” from the deafening sound of the shot. The three plaintiffs join several other crew members who have filed suits in New Mexico and California, including the script supervisor, set medic and gaffer. The producers expect to resume shooting this spring in Montana, with Baldwin still in the lead role. Hutchins’ parents and sister filed suit earlier this month.

Elissa Slotkin of Michigan will seek the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Democrat Debbie Stabenow in 2024, becoming the first high-profile candidate to jump into the battleground state race.

SAG Awards 2023: The worst-dressed stars revealed

As awards season inches ever closer to the big finale at the Academy Awards next month, it seems that some of Hollywood’s stars have run dry of sartorial inspiration for the red carpets – at least if the ensembles on display at tonight’s SAG Awards were anything to go by. AdvertisementLeading the worst-dressed list at this year’s SAG Awards was the usually-stylish Michelle Yeoh, whose strapless black dress looked as though it had pieces of straw superglued to the front of it. British actress Sheila Atim chose a dress from a similar color palette, opting for a deep burgundy design that featured a skirt and crop top. The look was then finished off with a rather tacky-looking corset-style crop top that featured Madonna-inspired cups and a rather garish red trim. AdvertisementThe Whale star Hong Chau’s very ill-fitting pale pink frock did little to flatter her figure thanks to some bunching around the mid section.
