Ralls @mralls.bsky.social · 02/10/2026In the last five years we have solved two of our biggest challenges: 1) we've effectively solved obesity (thru glp1s) and 2) solar+batteries has become the most economical source of power gen. In both cases just a matter of time until they transform society. 010

Ralls @mralls.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Last night at ~8:25p grid capacity got very tight in ERCOT... ~85GW demand and capacity ~93GW. However, no calls for rationing. Pricing was elevated but well within normal bounds. Why? Batteries were supplying the grid with almost 12GW! 1GW more than coal, and a new record. The future is here. 011

Ralls @mralls.bsky.social · 16/05/2026People who long for incandescent light bulbs don't think about the fire risk in their closet fixtures. Replaced 60w with leds that are only 14w but are 75w equiv. Less fire risk, more light. 010

Ralls @mralls.bsky.social · 16/09/2025@ember-energy.org Love the presentation! But question on this chart - won't expensive players getting priced out of the market actually prop up the price as supply drops? I buy the overall premise, but seems to me prices will not fall rapidly as S & D will stay in balance. 020
