Only silver lining to this mess is that it will help accelerate move away from fossil fuels towards solar and energy independence. Once again, China wins.
Follow Dr. @JaneAFlegal if you want extremely well-informed takes from a legit expert on how to lower electricity prices and use datacenters to strengthen the US grid and power system.
Amazing. Lithium ion batteries were once good for maybe 1,000-2,000 full discharge cycles. Now we're reaching multi-decade lifespans.
Three things that can help us get better use out of the US grid: 1. Energy storage (allows you to fill up when the grid is underutilized, and avoid hitting the grid when it's stresed). 2. Datacenters. (If done cleverly.) 3. Smart charging...
Texas is the clean energy capital of the United States. And a chunk of that is because of their easy permitting, relatively ample transmission, and highly deregulated electricity market. Abundance thinking in energy works.
Two technologies that competed for the future of heating and transport. The race is over. In 2025, 19m heat pumps were sold globally. Hydrogen-ready boilers: 237 units. The picture in transport is identical. 21m EVs were sold last year. Hydrogen fuel cell...
Can you even imagine building a data center in the EU with behind-the-meter power when this could happen at any moment?
Spain's renewables build-out has structurally decoupled its electricity prices from gas markets. Gas now sets the price in only 15% of hours, compared to 90% in Italy. Countries that invested early in clean power are far less exposed to...
😬UK gas prices just hit highest level since 2022😬 At current prices… * New wind & solar from latest "AR7" auction would cut the bill for UK gas imports by £5.5bn/y * A single (1) home heat pump would cut bill for gas...
The case for diplomacy, with an interesting suggestion of regional nuclear transparency / power cooperation as a prize potentially large enough to motivate dialogue.
AER now explicitly validating what our @FSS_Au work's been demonstrating for several years: more wind and more batteries pushing wholesale prices down and opening the door to actual bill cuts, even with fossil‑fuel risks still in the system https://t.co/h1G2Wmrare

When I started working on UK energy in 2007, fossil fuels provided ~78% of electricity. Coal alone: 34%. Wind & solar: less than 2%. Today: wind & solar 33%, fossil fuels 28%, coal 0%. The chart below tells the story better...
