Big tech committing to pay above market rates in the future to buy power from next gen nuclear plants, should they ever get built, is mildly helpful. Big tech investing in these companies to improve the likelihood these reactors get built in the first place is enormously helpful.
1. This article misreads our proposal; 2. Its headline presents a false choice (don't blame the authors...); 3. "Clear[ing] pathways to build clean energy at scale" isn't an afterthought; it is at the CORE of our proposed approach. heatmap.news/ideas/abundanc…
We should have a fast-track process to bring additional clean power on line to support AI data center loads. A hyper fast track. And not just in PJM, but nationally. utilitydive.com/news/fast-trac…
This is great news. A clear example of AI demand spurring additional clean energy capacity. We need a national framework to reward and encourage this kind of investment at scale. nytimes.com/2024/09/20/cli…
Glad to be collaborating with @RobGramlichDC on a roadmap to bring technological innovation to our power grid. This issue gets technical quickly, but we need to sweat the details if we’re going to meet our country’s energy needs.
🚨 New Paper Alert 🚨 What are the technical and policy constraints to deployment of advanced transmission technologies, and how can we solve them? A policy roadmap, with @RobGramlichDC & @APasnau ceepr.mit.edu/workingpaper/a…
My cut at an answer here. Welcome reactions: heatmap.news/technology/ai-…
But how? How when there will most likely be outdated policies and regulations that end up as brick walls to ambition? The politicization of clean energy has been our worst nightmare....
That is why we need an AI Additionality framework with teeth, which Congress should act on in the context of permitting reform. Teeth wrt hyperscalers committing to new clean firm power & teeth on regulators to fast track projects through permitting/siting.
The issue Brian is that we have a totally strict policy for 45V and instead a nice-to-have standard for AI companies, so pretty clear which one drives the other out of clean power. e-Fuels and other climate solutions should be advantaged over new AI demand, backwards currently.
Some context on today's AI-fueled energy surge: We have navigated energy demand ↑ in the past. No reason to panic; reason to plan. We can leverage demand in one critical sector (AI) to scale innovation in another (clean energy) IF we make this an urgent national priority.
America needs an energy policy for AI. One that extends our lead in American AI technology and accelerates our momentum in clean energy innovation. This is within our reach, but will require a new approach. heatmap.news/technology/ai-…
Even in a fracturing world, the US has unique capacity to shape global outcomes. We can strengthen our economy & deepen our alliances by launching an historic effort to accelerate the energy transition. But to do so, we need a new model. My take here: foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…
The idea of a CR Marshall Plan is broader than exporting our clean technology. It is: invest in innovation-> drive down costs in emerging mkts-> expand other countries’ CE production capacity-> diversify supply chains. All feasible while growing US share of growing global mkts.
One more thing on the @BrianCDeese Clean Energy Marshal Plan proposal: I completely agree and support the idea of developing a (green) alternative to the Belt and Road Initiative. 1/
This is a big deal in every sense of the phrase. reneweconomy.com.au/sun-cable-plib…
Marshall Plan invocations often induce eye rolling, and deservedly so. In this case, the analogy reinforces a core opportunity: We can be generous to our partners & Pro-American in our aims In service of solving an historic global challenge. foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…
The Inflation Reduction Act turns two this week. Here's what we know: - Clean investment is up 71% ($493bn); - Clean investment = *more than half* of total private investment growth - Private investment is 5-6x public investment Not bad for a toddler. cleaninvestmentmonitor.org/reports/tallyi…
