Think of this graph of real U.S. price and electricity production data, straight from the Department of @Energy, next time you hear the false claim that renewables increase electricity prices and that coal, gas, or nuclear is needed to keep prices low.
won't loose wastewater standards for data centers in states like Ohio only sour the electorate on AI in the longterm?
In 2023, there was not a single day until spring where WindWaterSolar met >100% of demand for part of the day on the California ISO grid. During winter 2026, so far there are already 45 of 68 such days (66%), and...
Today's #HydrogenSoufflé comes to you from Norway. In 2022 the Public Roads Administration awarded a 4.9bn NOK ($520 million) contract for 2 #hydrogen ferries. Internal documents found by NRK show the fuel cell lifetime may be <10% of the 7.5...
Forward the video to 1.40: “… While in 1990, one third of Europe's electricity came from nuclear, today it's only close to 15%. This reduction in the share of nuclear was a choice. And in hindsight, it was a strategic mistake…” Good to...
Meanwhile, oil’s geopolitical leverage is being systematically vaporized: China alone is in the midst of a $250b green manufacturing spend outside China. To put that into perspective: that's more than the inflation-adjusted Marshall Plan. This is a tidal wave of...
China’s Electricity System Is the Real Story Behind the World's First Electrostate What makes China unique is the scale, structure of its power system. China's utilities control more generating capacity than the entire United States. https://markhamhislop.substack.com/p/chinas-electricity-system-is-the
Good time to replace your gasoline car with a battery-electric car and save $31,500 in fuel cost over 15 years: = 15,000 mi/y x 15 y x ($5/gal-gas - $0.8/gal-equivalent-electricity) / 30 mi/gal = $31,500 Gasoline prices could reach $5 a...
