Permitting is broken. In Watts the Tea, Zainab and Hannah explain why the system slows clean energy and keeps the status quo in place. We don’t need to start from scratch. We need to stop designing for delay.

Farm to Power is helping rural communities connect with clean energy.

That means stronger farms, more local jobs, and another way to keep families on the land. Clean energy is part of the future for agriculture.

Q3 clean energy investment hit $75 billion. That’s a record.

Utility-scale power is rising while manufacturing slows. Growth depends on faster permitting and steady policy.
