How do we allow (not to mention fund & suppress criticism of) such slaughter--and similar atrocities over the last 20 months and beyond? We all need to speak out more--to save innocent lives and stop the theft of our souls. From Omar El Akkad in "One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This"

Join @energyinnovation.org and the Regulatory Energy Transition Accelerator on Weds. June 25 at 10am for a webinar covering our new Regulating Hydrogen paper, including discussion with a panel of regulators from British Columbia, Chile, and New York State: energyinnovation.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act is actually One Big Expensive Bill that, if passed as is, will do major damage to the U.S. economy, harm workers and families, and put the U.S. in the backseat when it comes to global competitiveness. The team at @energyinnovation.org modeled it, here's what we found:

New research from my colleagues out today looking at the environmental and social impacts of food crop-based biofuels in the US, where we now use >30% of the corn supply and >40% of the soybean oil supply (on tens of millions of acres of prime cropland) to produce only ~6% of US transport fuel. 🧪

I wrote about why we started our new Fuels & Chemicals program--encompassing hydrogen, biofuels, carbon capture, and their derivatives--at @energyinnovation.org, and why the timing felt right to do so. Check out the full Substack post: thepowerline.substack.com/p/clean-fuel...

The hydrogen hype cycle has confused the industry's growth trajectory--with implications for electric and gas utilities. @oboylemm.bsky.social and I worked with the Regulatory Energy Transition Accelerator on a new @energyinnovation.org hydrogen regulation paper: energyinnovation.org/report/regul...

One Big Beautiful Bill, or One Big Blackout Bill? Killing clean energy tax credits threatens 150 GW of new wind, solar, and battery storage right as surging power demand means America needs new energy more than ever. Passing the bill could crash our grid. www.realclearenergy.org/articles/202...

Happy Earth Day!! 🌍 Consider how remarkable this planet is. Among all the planets, we live on this one. This is our home. Our beautiful, brilliant orb and all its life forms are worth protecting, preserving, conserving, regenerating, restoring, and replenishing. www.nesdis.noaa.gov/news/happy-e...

A huge energy story is unfolding in Pueblo, CO - with big implications for our state's grid, climate goals, and energy costs. An "energy park" could help Colorado replace coal and lead US innovation. Me with @michelle-solomon.bsky.social #COleg #COpolitics www.coloradopolitics.com/opinion/repl...

🚨 The largest federal program helping low income households pay their energy bills no longer has any staff.

Colorado utility bills could rise, emissions cuts would be slowed if Trump ends clean energy tax credits

📣 BREAKING: The UK Climate Change Committee now says there’s no role for hydrogen in building heating. That’s study #61 on my list showing little to no role for hydrogen in heating—up from 54 in my meta-review from Dec 2023: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Today, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Industrial Technology Innovation Advisory Committee (ITIAC) released our first report containing recommendations on how DOE can accelerate a transition to clean, competitive U.S. #manufacturing. Check it out at: www.energy.gov/sites/defaul...

Want a deeper dive into what made it into the final 45V Clean Hydrogen Production Tax Credit rules? In a new blog, we share six insights on the electrolytic hydrogen side, covering pros/cons for emissions integrity, investment risk, and industry viability: energyinnovation.org/expert-voice...

NEW: The U.S. Treasury's final 45V Clean Hydrogen Production Tax Credit rules are out. In my new @latitudemedia.bsky.social op-ed, I argue these rules are a remarkable compromise that can spur a domestic clean hydrogen industry--but stakeholders must unite: www.latitudemedia.com/news/clean-h...

It's the moment you've been waiting for... a new 2,000 words (ok its a bit more) from me on the 45V hydrogen tax credit. Except this time we have final rules! "3 Pillars" are still in...sort of. Path for existing nuclear, w/ 200 mw cap per reactor. More details inside ⤵️ heatmap.news/climate/fina...

🚨NEW: We published a paper titled Hydrogen Policy's Narrow Path: Delusions & Solutions. It's dense with information but organized for readability, including a series of standalone 2-page overviews covering 12 potential hydrogen end uses. energyinnovation.org/publication/...

Super interesting #DailyPaper on sorting useful hydrogen applications from nonsense. I really like the sector buckets, with "terrible" meaning "like using champagne to water a lawn" 🍾🍾🍾 Also great 2 pagers on each of these end-users, with prospects and cost/environmental/social considerations.

Today @danespo14.bsky.social released a new paper: #Hydrogen Policy’s Narrow Path: Delusions & Solutions. #Hydrogen is important for achieving our #climate goals, but only if it is implemented cleanly and used properly. energyinnovation.org/publication/...

Despite loud voices trying to frame it as such, the 45V clean hydrogen tax credit debate has never been industry vs enviros. In my op-ed for The Hill, I explain why many developers agree strong guardrails are a must for growing a lasting H2 industry: thehill.com/opinion/4459...
