Posting this louder for the guys in the back. I’d much rather have slower Google than no AC.
Reminder: data centers and crypto should be first priority for load shed during peak days like this, not your AC

At some point we have to admit that Severin is not looking to solve for the same things that we are. Choice.

If consumers aren’t served well by their Monopoly Utility they have to be able to self generate or enter into a mutual beneficial arrangement like install batteries that benefit the grid.
My Energy Institute blog post on some proposals to reduce the rooftop solar cost shift. Conclusion: hard to make much progress in CA unless we drastically change rates to stop using them to pay for fixed costs of public policies and climate impacts. 💡🔌

Utility corruption gets the HBO doc treatment tonight. Featuring the utility that bribed its way into billion-dollar bailouts subsidized by people’s electric bills.

Good day to appreciate @cleantechfacts.bsky.social for all his work to document the saga in real time.

"It's a mistake to even consider carbon capture whatsoever"

"carbon capture inevitably raises social costs"

"It takes away funding from clean renewable energy," thus increasing CO2, pollution, mining, pipes & costs

Reality of living in a state with a mega-monopoly electric utility: the Senate leader is a former utility executive, legislation is crafted in secret & rammed through in days, & state agencies are used to produce confidential analysis that nobody can access... 🔌💡 www.powerpolicy.net/p/americas-n...
