This is a very simple point that gets obscured, ignored or totally deleted in the debate around regulating energy construction, but it's extremely crucial. There is a new and phenomenal amount of gas trying to connect to the grid in the US kevinjkircher.com/what-energy-...
If all clean generation in PJM’s queue were built, but today’s 61% fossil share of total PJM generation were maintained, then only 60% of the gas in PJM’s queue could be built. In other words, to avoid increasing the fossil share of PJM energy, a permitting bill would have to green-light all queued clean generation while blocking 40% of queued gas generation. (Calculations here.) To actually decrease the fossil share of PJM energy, more than 40% of queued gas generation would need to be blocked.

This is why folks should not waste time designing the perfect and optimized system of higher education and R&D investment. That’s unnecessary when an underinvested system is under attack. We should start by setting core guiding objectives and tripling the investment, and adjust as needed.

Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.

Given all that has happened with the warehouse initiative this spring, it's fascinating to revisit this ICE statement from early March, where they admitted the purpose of these facilities and alluded to rigorous due diligence. We also stopped seeing these economic impact figures soon after, too.
Screenshot of an ICE email which reads: "“ICE purchased a facility in Hagerstown, Maryland. These are not warehouses — they will be very well-structured detention facilities meeting our regular detention standards. Sites will undergo community impact studies and a rigorous due diligence process to make sure there is no hardship on local utilities or infrastructure prior to purchase. The Hagerstown, Maryland, facility and its construction are expected to bring 1,125 jobs to the area and would contribute $120.6 million in GDP. It’s also projected to bring in about $28.8 million in tax revenue."
