A quarter of the grid is 50 years or older. Most of the lines were built in the 1950s and 1960s with a life expectancy of 50 years. Time to upgrade 100,000 miles of aging infrastructure with advanced conductors.

This sometimes gets forgotten when we discuss costs of the transition. A lot of our infrastructure needs to be rebuilt anyway; rebuilding it clean does not cost that much extra and pays back quickly.

net-zero ≠ zero energy

Solar and nuclear are orders of magnitude more abundant than fossil fuels.

Switching to more abundant energy sources will make the world more prosperous - not less.

Folks are missing the forest from the trees here. We are currently in a situation where Microsoft, Google and Nucor have just asked for everyone’s best ideas around meeting 25,000+ MWs of load growth. They are evaluating all of the ideas that have come in. sustainabilitymag.com/articles/clean…

I was honored to get to contribute to what is probably the best podcast out there now on decarbonization and the energy transition, the Cleaning Up Podcast run by Michael Liebreich and Bryony Worthington.

Check it out here: youtu.be/oYdVAI5zozs?si…

And I warmly recommend the whole Cleaning Up

If you care about electricity rates you have to figure out how to get more out of the electricity system we have already paid for. This means fitting new loads within the capacity of the existing system already in place.

Jigar Shah On my block alone, there is at least 6 homes-worth of daily kWh (174) parked every evening. That's a lot of peak-shaving. Still waiting for Duquesne Light Co. to send me a V2H charger

This is the kind of picture that gives me hope: Texas is a climate leader, even though its politicians denounce it.

That's because it simply makes economic sense by now and will increasingly do so.

Same reason Trump could not change the demise of coal.
