Past barriers to V2G & how SAE standard J3068 solves most of them. The world needs storage for #renewables, and #V2G makes storage 1/10 the cost of purpose-built batteries. @SAEIntl @ProfStrachan @ChristianOnRE @UD_ECE @mzjacobson canarymedia.com/articles/ev-ch… electrek.co/2023/12/15/sae…

Wise & concise statement, @AukeHoekstra We need to understand, and communicate, both perspectives. I add, we also need to keep growing an army of scientists, engineers, analysts, and new-technology-savvy policy advocates to implement at this speed. Targets don’t reduce emissions.

First power Tuesday, from biggest #USA #OffshoreWind project, vineyardwind.com/vineyardwind-1 Its full capacity will be 806 MW🟰937 union jobs, carbon emissions ⬇️ 1.6 MMT CO2/year=325,000 cars off the road. (Now only 1 turbine at 5 MW testing.) News release: vineyardwind.com/press-releases…

New SAE EV standards: one is #V2G for AC, making V2G lower-cost and easier to mass-produce. The other standardizes the Tesla connector. Link is how those were created. udel.edu/udaily/2023/de… @EV_Research @mzjacobson @ProfStrachan @ChristianOnRE @SAEIntl @UD_ECE @UDResearch

Big drops in the cost of most #renewable sources of electricity. The graph compares costs in 2011 versus 2022. The grey band is the range of prices for fossil fuel-generated electricity.

2/2 They can’t pay inflated💲cost and sell🔌at the same bid price! Solutions: States need to write contracts with an inflation adjustment at financial close (now done in NY & MA✅) and Feds need to speed up their 4+ year, 22 agency, permitting gauntlet🤯😵‍💫

Among states, #california leads on policy & targets for floating #offshorewind. CA‘s 25 GW will⬇️⬇️ #CO2 & build OSW industrial base (I testified re latter). Great video of policy from Fed & CA officials, plus future industrial activity to meet CA’s goals: offshorewindca.org/owc-video

First turbine shipping out, of #USA's first commercial-size #OffshoreWind project: vineyardwind.com/vineyardwind-1. Note in drone video, one complete topside--two-part tower, nacelle, 3 blades. Offshore, crane ship will lift and assemble onto monopile already in. youtu.be/4locoph2dMg?si…

An excellent @nytimes article on rapid growth of wind, solar, & EVs, including factories, in the US. Costs are below fossil and nuclear (see graphs). Reasons why, graphs with how fast, pictures of it happening. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Incredible! This FLOATING offshore wind farm has a capacity factor, averaged over 5 years, of 54%! This exceeds the French nuclear fleet capacity factor of 52.9% for 2022. offshore-mag.com/renewable-ener… @WindEurope @ProfStrachan @ChristianOnRE @BrianVad @CKemfert @WillettKempton

Advice for activists to lower #CO2 emissions: @GregorMacdonald shows that trying to STOP #fossil SUPPLY is only temporary, vs. REPLACE end uses (e.g. #heatpumps, #EVs), or (I say) ADD #wind & #solar, all make lasting, large reductions in CO2 emissions. open.substack.com/pub/gregor/p/m…
