New bill in MA opens the door for state procurement of energy projects and repeals the need for a statewide ballot initiative to build new nuclear, thoughts? A 2024 ISO-NE modeled 15GW of SMRs would reduce RE needs by 57% (at $70/MWh by 2050). 2x cost results in 10GW. #nuclear #SMR #climate

Does low-emission #ammonia for #power make sense? 1. Blue ammonia cuts LNG GHG by ~50%—at double the fuel costs 2. Co-firing risks NOx and N₂O emissions (273x GHG warming of CO2) 3. Abatement is ~$400/tonne (w/o N₂O) 4. Replacing Japan’s gas would take 120MT/yr—6x global ammonia #cleanenergy

I'm not a Texas resident, but I follow power market design debates closely—and it's hard to miss how far SB715 diverges from sound analysis and expert consensus. Business groups, manufacturers, industry, ERCOT leadership, and thermal generators raised concerns. #ElectricityMarkets #EnergyPolicy
