Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports #renewables now 10 times more efficient than new nuclear at CO2 #climate mitigation. Build times for new #nuclear are massively longer than for #solar and #wind. Nuclear costs always ramp.

Oil supply makes demand, not supply fills demand. This is called manufactured demand. It works with lots of things, but with this thing, we need to stop.(really probably need to stop with most things) No more pipelines.

As Secretary, I engaged with local communities and cut the red tape to put shovels in the ground and move SunZia forward. From driving down costs to creating good-paying jobs right here in our state, clean energy projects are a game-changer for families.

They are building the data centers because they think the future will be a nominally democratic but overwhelmingly oligarchic technocracy.
MAGA is not really a populist coup. The mind control of religion is the model, with the technology providing the means to permanent control of the population.

Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:
In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.
In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

One ~182km x ~211km solar thermal plant could provide all of America’s electricity, including a fully-electrified land transport sector.
100% clean power from just 0.39% of U.S land.
That’s why renewables are constantly under attack from the fossil fuel industry and their paid mouthpieces.

Interesting facts from the Economist:
China is now making more money exporting green technology than America makes exporting fossil fuels;
China's solar power capacity (887 gigawatts) is almost double Europe's and America's combined total.

The eight Democrats who caved were incredibly naïve. The Republicans will not allow a vote on extending the affordable care act credits without a concession. What will the concession be? Democrats were in a position to demand a concession now they will have to give something. Stupid.

Wood Mackenzie confirms new natural gas generation is expensive!
$126/MWh in 2030!
New solar plus batteries are less than half the cost of new gas!
New nuclear ($139/MWh) also is getting close to being cheaper than new gas!
Gas too is dirty, biggest CO2 electricity polluter. #energysky
