Last year, China installed more solar than the rest of the world combined. This year, more than twice as much. China now has the tools to tap Earth’s largest energy resource at scale. If we don’t build those tools quickly, we will be left behind.

One of the luckiest things in my life is that my closest friends are in a completely different industry to tech. Constantly pushes to think through the why of things.

Ask anybody with an off-grid house why they have *both* solar panels and a diesel generator. Hint: <it’s not cheaper to run the generator all the time.>

Cancel built wind farms, sell gas turbines abroad, block transmission infrastructure. US energy has never been in a more confusing place.

Obvious to anyone paying attention but nice to see visualized @BloombergNEF data across regions: "The average size of data centers planned for 2025-2030 is significantly larger than those built in the past"

I don't think we fully grasped yet how important solar will be as an energy source. Great graph @CarbonBrief based on @IEA data.
Hiring is wild right now. In the last month we had 23,263 applications and hired 5 people. We are an in person NYC, 40 person AI company with 8 roles open.
Grass fed beef is a distinction pretty specific to US farming.

The battery boom has begun🔋⚡️ 69 GW were installed in 2024. That's 66% more than in 2023. Battery storage is modular, flexible, fast to deploy and prices are still falling. Its growth trajectory looks more like consumer electronics than traditional infrastructure.

Just 119 gigawatts of data center interconnection requests in one Texas utility service territory
HIFLD open data is now gone. There will be fewer startups working to solve infrastructure problems because of this. Its existence helped early Paces while we built our own data sets.

Consequently, the US as a whole also saw a new record of 41.1 TWh in June, surpassing the previous record set a month earlier in May of 39.0 TWh. It also represents a massive 25% year-on-year increase compared to June 2024 when solar produced 32.8 TWh.

@sdamico and @packyM's 'Electric Stack' deep dive is a thrilling tour of the history, tech, industrial policy, and future of the electric world. Essential reading for every energy builder / economist. Selfish reaction: 1. I work on the coolest topic 2. I need to learn chemistry
