i haven't seen a breakdown of a geothermal power plant on here, so now that we own one, here's a quick breakdown of how they work with some pics ⚡️ *note that in the aerial footage, the operating geo plant is center

Politicians have been promising to bring manufacturing back for decades. Biden-Harris policies are finally doing it. Now, hundreds of thousands of new jobs in the industries of the future hang in the balance this election. I explain why Heatmap News heatmap.news/economy/us-man…

What is AI's real carbon footprint? You won't find it in the sustainability reports of tech giants. That's because they claim it's mostly or entirely powered by renewables. Natasha White & I dug deeper to find reality to be otherwise. Thanks to use of dodgy credits.

🚨NEW: Today, we published a paper titled Hydrogen Policy's Narrow Path Forward: Delusions & Solutions. It's dense with information but organized for readability, including a series of standalone 2-page overviews covering 12 potential hydrogen end uses. energyinnovation.org/publication/hy…

At Scientific American, Princeton Engineering's Wilson Ricks talks about enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) — why it has renewed interest, what we might see from it in the long term and the importance of funding research behind it. bit.ly/3T8mxMn

What are the #climate stakes of the #2024Elections? How many gigatons of CO2 are at stake? On Shift Key, we get quantitative w/Energy Innovation Policy & Technology LLC®'s sonia aggarwal to unpack how far we've come, how far we still need to go, and how bad #Project2025 would be. Today, wherever you get

#Geothermal is so hot right now. This week on SHIFT KEY, we drill in on enhanced geothermal systems with Fervo Energy's Sarah Jewett and ZERO Lab's Wilson Ricks! Get your geofluids flowing with us, wherever you find your pods... 🌎🌋⚡

Timely new report from Sierra Club on how rapidly rising electric demand could be harnessed to accelerate (rather than impede) grid decarbonization: sierraclub.org/sites/default/…

Sure is interesting how we passed the Inflation Reduction Act, and then inflation went down.

#AcademicJobs in #MacroEnergySystems: Come work with me Princeton University Andlinger Center.

What can decarbonization scenarios tell us about energy system transitions? Our new article in Joule summarizes the uses and limits of ensembles using a new public database of US net-zero scenarios! A 🧵 on key findings…

New reporting by Utility Dive highlights the evolving nature of PPA contracts for renewable project developers in the US. Scarcity of offtakers means it’s a buyer’s market and buyers are setting terms that expose renewable developers to various risks. utilitydive.com/news/big-tech-…

🚨Calling all #hydrogen folks! We develop a geospatial, measurement-informed supply chain emissions assessment of #hydrogen production pathways in the US! This paper illustrates why success of #climate action critically rests on accurate supply chain #carbon #accounting. 🧵

What if - instead of landowners fighting solar - they bonded together and developed one of the largest collections of solar and storage facilities on earth? pv-magazine-usa.com/2024/10/17/cal…

The Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill simultaneously manages to raise US energy bills, kill 100s of planned manufacturing plants, hundreds thousands of good manufacturing jobs & millions of construction jobs, give up on AI, EVs, solar, batteries and other industries of the
