The details of the climate & energy provisions in the Republicans' new bill, hashed over with a Senate insider.
What the F is happening? Part 3
I talk with Senate vet Adrian Deveny about the House GOP's "Big Beautiful Bill," which would almost entirely wipe out four years of climate policy.

I recently joined @volts.wtf on his podcast to unpack the Republican reconciliation bill moving through Congress – a bill with huge implications for U.S. energy and climate policy.

Always a good time to share this. How cheap does gasoline have to be before it's as cheap as an electric vehicle? #energysky

This is such a great episode. There is so much opportunity in networked geothermal.
Today on Volts: thermal energy networks are the new hotness! Replacing fossil gas pipes & furnaces with water pipes & heat pumps was a niche idea not long ago. Now the first pilot is completed & dozens more are on the way. This is how natgas companies can survive: become thermal energy companies.
Thermal energy networks are the next big thing
Could gas utilities transform into "thermal utilities"? Here's how networked heat pumps could give them a whole new business model instead of going extinct.

Today, the Biden Admin announced a new goal to cut US greenhouse gases 61-66% below peak levels by 2035. The current target is 50-52% by 2030. Based on several modeling efforts, including our REPEAT Project, the USA is on track to ~40-55% below peak by 2035, before Trump starts dismantling things.🔌💡

A lot of people still don’t realize that dramatic cost reductions in geothermal is something happening *right now*, not theoretically in the future.
Here is a look at the cost numbers published by NREL every year for Deep Enhanced Geothermal. A 50% improvement in 2024 with a lot more to come.

But for all my grid geeks out there, my favorite part of this rule: reducing the cost of interconnecting most clean generators--including network upgrade costs paid to a utility--by 30%!
This can help us unlock interconnection queues and get more grid built.

When TIME selected me for the Time 100 Climate list this year, they asked me: What is the single most important action you think the public, or a specific company or government (other than your own), needs to take in the next year to advance the climate agenda?

With eleven months of the year now in, 2024 will be the warmest year on record in the ERA5 dataset, at around 1.59C (with a 95% confidence interval of 1.57C to 1.61C given uncertainty in December temperatures).

I know the future feels bleak for Federal climate policy, but this was always going to be a long journey. Thank you to my dear friend @leahstokes.bsky.social for inviting me to UCSB to talk about the road ahead.
