Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 02/09/2026For perspective here, Fervo’s Cape Station site in Utah was permitted for exploratory drilling in 2023. If this gets completed on schedule, they’ll have added 20% of Utah’s power generation in five years. 010

Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Four more years to BEV passing ICE. That’s a blink of an eye in the world of manufacturing. If you’re not already building the production facilities, you’re off the back. 021
Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Denmark (currently 89% BEV) used to be the fast one. Now there are five countries projected to go even faster. 011
Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 28/04/2026Solar and wind met 99.8% of the world’s growth in electricity demand last year. Nuclear added 4% more. Coal and gas combined for -4%. 🔌💡 @ember-energy.org 001
Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Tunnels, bridges, power lines, small hydro - infrastructure central 🇳🇴 This is about a $50 million dollar tunnel serving a small surf town with about 20 permanent residents. Trollfjord I hydro is 3.2 MW, 178m head, 61% CF. It’s easy when you have mountains and lots of rainfall. 🔌💡 001

Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 31/03/2026Finally got a clear day to go ski the south side of Rundfjellet. We’ve started up it twice before and bailed because of the wind. 🇳🇴 130

Joy doesn’t mean ignoring loss or pretending the stakes aren’t high. It means refusing to let despair be the organizing principle.” www.parkrecord.com/2026/03/18/r...parkrecord.comReasons for joy - Park Record"There is progress to celebrate and work to be done. As we look forward, here are four reasons to make 2026 the year of Joy for climate work." 144
Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 10/03/2026It’s great to see the political consensus on restoring the lake. But it’s not an easy task - or a cheap one. There’s work to do. @evanbush.bsky.socialnbcnews.comThe audacious plan to refill the Great Salt LakeA "Herculean" goal to replenish the water in Utah's Great Salt Lake by the 2034 Olympics is gaining momentum and attracting strange bedfellows. 020

Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 31/01/2026Global sales of pure ICE cars still set to drop below 50% in 2029. US automakers ignore that shift at their own peril. 010
Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 31/01/2026The bad news: “corruption, brutality, and casual disregard for the law.” The good news: “a glimmer of hope that many institutions and processes appear far more resistant to takeover than those that have crumbled underfoot elsewhere.” 020
Tom Moyer @tommoyerut.bsky.social · 29/01/2026That’s equivalent to the volume of a Deer Creek Reservoir each year. Or you can think of it as 6% of the state’s consumptive water use. We’re not done, but this is a big deal. If we’re going to refill the lake before the Olympics, we need a couple of interventions at this scale each year. 122
