For decades, "competitiveness" has been a foundation of U.S. policymaking—a zero-sum race to dominate others. What if "beating China" isn't the point? What if the goal is… supporting American workers and protecting the environment? Our report, but first a 🧵 www.americanprogress.org/article/no-m...

"Donald Trump is the first president to intentionally raise the price of something that we all need". This speech by Senator @schatz.bsky.social is really worth watching: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsAD...

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

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. 👉 Have a listen! www.volts.wtf/p/what-the-f...

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, 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 chart shows a range of modeling studies' projections of US greenhouse gas emissions under current policies, showing a roughly 40-55% reduction below peak emissions in 2005 by 2035.

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. A true sleeper provision from IRA.

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? Here was my reply... 🧵 🔌💡

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.
