This is also a big reason for my skepticism around the 'nuclear reactor in a shipping container' idea.

Nuclear power can be very safe, but it takes a lot of effort to make it safe.

It's a lot easier and more affordable to do that with large stationary reactors. You need…

Solar
Wind and solar

Inversely correlated generation resources can do a lot to address seasonal variance.

Lab grown ice is an affront to hard working American families like the Glendale's.

'10 acres per MW' is not representative of modern solar farms.

Anybody want to guess what happens next?

This would trigger an American Renaissance

This from Eli Dourado is still the best articulation of the specifics for an abundance agenda in Washington, DC

16kW Solar panel A-Frame pop-up event space version 0.1 - designing w/ Danielle Fong 💁🏻‍♀️🔆🏴‍☠️ for Edge Esmeralda.

Who wants to help push this further??? Jesse Peltan Devon ☀️ let's build enough to power the event

Lots of potential in producing silicon without carbon.

Going from this:

to this:

would enable completely electrified solar supply chains.

Rooftop solar doesn't have to be expensive. In most of the world - it isn't.

Buildings already have mounting structure, a grid connection, a lot of things you have to pay for when building a solar farm.

Solar farms benefit from economies of scale, and it does make sense to…

The global expansion of solar, wind, and batteries is driven by economics.

New generation in the U.S. looks a lot like it does in China, and most other places.

Wind is growing in places with strong wind resources, but those areas are geographically limited.

Solar is growing…

Solar is cheap.

If you make it easy for people to build it, they will.

I see this kind of take a lot, but it’s wrong.

We can make a way bigger impact than 15%

We sell millions of tons of coal to India and China. We could be selling green steel, solar panels, batteries, and EVs instead.

We can’t “control” what China or India do, but we don’t have…

Storage matches up supply and demand in time.

Storage costs money but we build it because it costs less than building more of everything else to meet the same demand.

There’s an optimal level of storage in any system. It doesn’t make sense to build 100 years of gas storage or 3…

China is building more nuclear than the rest of the world combined.

China is building even more solar than nuclear.

China is building coal capacity, but coal is declining as a percentage of total generation.

These are all smart choices.
We should be doing the same.
(but with…
