"Active grid connection requests are 2x the total installed capacity of the US power plant fleet (2,600 vs. 1,280 GW). The time needed to secure a connection has risen by 70% over the last decade, & withdrawal rates remain high at 80%" h/t @carbonwrangler.bsky.social www.cell.com/joule/fullte...

The "research but don't deploy" argument is akin to reading a few books on how to train for a marathon, not do any actual training, and yet expect to be able to run 26.2 miles on race day.

1/ I wrote for NYT on a 3-prong strategy for climate progress under Trump. -innovation & industrial strategy -pragmatism on fossil fuels -expand interests that benefit from decarb This same approach led to IRA/IIJA. But it did not pass the test for many activist groups.

Every major environmental issue that we've made progress on, i.e., acid rain, ozone hole, etc has been because of "incremental or tech" solutions.

"The climate movement needs a broader coalition ... Climate shouldn’t be the exclusive domain of activists who pass a purity test based on intention, but instead on a pragmatic evaluation of what's needed to make decarbonization good business, regardless of politics." www.nytimes.com/2024/12/08/o...
