Almost $25 for 62 miles of range at a half empty supercharger at 8pm on a Monday night. Feels like prices for fast charging have inflated faster than anything else I buy...

Incredible precision by the helicopter crew dropping water on the LA firea 🎯

I have a small podcast using AI to synthesize dense #EnergySky reports. This week I’m doing the DOE Pathways to Commercial Liftoff reports, aligned with #Deploy24! Today I posted the podcast for the Grid report and it’s the best podcast yet: open.spotify.com/episode/7DnH...

We've had an EV for 5 years and now drive only EVs. I had a slight worry before going full EV that I might find it constraining. That's never happened. I haven't once considered going back. 300+ mile range is a game changer. EVs are far from perfect but they're a more appealing total package.

This is "precision" patio heater is brilliant, all electric, and a great looking product. Reminds me of stage lights - a very smart intersection of electrification and AI (computer vision) megatrends. πŸ”ŒπŸ’‘ www.gsb.stanford.edu/experience/n...

Tbh a light cosmetic workup on the Radiant Nuclear Kaleidos microreactor vessel and you can have this. About the same size! Congrats to them on their $100M raise! πŸ”ŒπŸ’‘ ignition-news.com/radiant-rais...

Resurfacing this Climate VC starter pack for the new folks in #energysky

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline

There is so much activity on here and no ads (that I've seen). Also it's completely free? What am I missing? Who's paying to run bluesky?

🧡 PG&E’s Innovation Summit is massive and packed as it kicks off in San Jose with Mayor Matt Mahan. Anyone else here? I’ll post updates throughout the day. #EnergySky

The U.S. released targets for deploying new nuclear energy today at #COP29 πŸ”΅35 GW by 2035 πŸ”΅200 GW by 2050 πŸ”΅ramping the supply chain to 15 GW per year capacity by 2040 To address energy security, environmental impact, affordability, and more, we must deploy πŸ”ŒπŸ’‘

The youth climate movement around and following Biden's election re-energized my own commitment and enthusiasm to the space. Reading these stats and quote compiled by @InsideClimate.flipboard.com.ap.brid.gy is a real eye opener for me. Looks like some huge gaps relative to just 4 years ago.

Thank you @tnorris.bsky.social for curating the Bluesky climate community with outreach, starter packs, tips and more!

Great piece from @billmckibben.bsky.social about the stories we've overlooked πŸ”ŒπŸ’‘ 🟒 Solar + Wind = Costco! Not Whole Foods πŸ˜‚ 🟒 We are deploying a nuclear power plant's worth of solar *per day* 🟒 California cut natural gas use for electricity generation by 25% in one year www.cjr.org/analysis/bil...

Amy just started a climate VC pack!

Created the Starter Pack for fellows and alums of the CELI program. Give them a follow and comment here if I should add you! go.bsky.app/7eG7W1Z
