Grid investment is set to rise from about USD 300bn in 2020 to nearly USD 580bn by 2027 as renewables and electrification expand. The US and China dominate spending.
But grids are not the only answer: flexibility, energy efficiency and storage can reduce and defer upgrades.

Solar+batteries is just going to win.
Solar is comparatively cheap. It's the easiest for power companies to deploy (~1 year vs. 5-10 years for conventional power plants). It's inexpensive to maintain. It's environmentally beneficial. And it can add value to farms by providing shade.
It's a winner

A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.
When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.
This is outrageous.

It's important for everyone to understand that this was by design by The Powers That Be, who experienced existential panic in the first half of Biden's first term as workers had a favorable job market for the first time in two decades. They put in huge effort to stopping it.

The first thing ICE did when it was created was raiding meat processing plants in the Midwest and south to help quell labor disputes over safety violations and keep those who weren't detained from getting legal protections as many had kids who grew up locally and were citizens with political power.

I still know the positions of all the camp-blocking ward spots in the original Dota2 map (which was substantially altered in later patches, as was the camp blocking/stacking mechanic)

so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?
