"When we look at these visioning documents, I think there's a lot of value in thinking through the energy system in terms of talking to people about how they experience energy infrastructure, how they experience their utility." - Season 6, Episode 18, 10:14

Dr. Tony Reames and Dr. Salma Elmallah discuss their work and research on energy justice in a special episode of Public Power Underground called "Afterparty: Frontlining Energy Justice"

“There was a bargain people were making….” Jon Lovett speaks to something spiritual and communal that broke in a bargain that didn’t pay off. I continue to respect @jonlovett.bsky.social

In personal news, I am on my way to England to start Oxford’s MSc in Energy Systems on Monday. The first session is on thermodynamics and I assume I’ll be learning about the magic of heat pumps from the ghost of J.R.R. Tolkien. Otherwise, I’m totally unprepared.

I haven’t been in a math class in 19 years. I need someone to walk me through Section 2.3 “the simple equations behind the story” of Thomas-Olivier Léautier’s Imperfect Markets and Imperfect Regulation. 🔌💡

I workshopped my perspective on the core business capabilities of an electric utility with the kiddos tonight. Current trio: Load & Resource Balancing; Risk, Cost & Policy Pooling; and Building, Operating & Maintaining Infrastructure.

Or maybe electric utilities function like the P-I-D controllers of the electric system where the control signal is the spot price of electricity and the actuator is infrastructure investment. 💡🔌

Already regret passing on Insulation Investments in favor of Tax Haven Regulations and it’s only our first Global Stage. Daybreak is great and the trade offs of climate change are complex.
