@halhod Wherever utilities have become serious about decarbonization, you will find this is exactly what they are planning.

It’s the northern hemisphere solstice today. So I wrote an essay about solar power, and how it’s is going to change everything economist.com/interactive/es…

@halhod For these reasons, serious experts urge “firm, clean” sources to complement renewables like solar and wind. Even at a higher marginal cost, these sources in the mix significantly reduce the cost of the clean energy system.

@halhod That’s not just because of the cost battery storage. It also entails a massive overbuild of generation to charge that storage while also meeting peak loads. It requires lots of expensive new transmission to bring the power from generation to load centers.

@halhod You must also have reliability and stability on the grid, and transmission from generation to load centers. Serious studies show that meeting these requirements in a clean energy system becomes extremely expensive with only intermittent renewables.

Great timing for this coalition to launch. NENSC.org.

Adm. Richard Mies, co-chair of the Nuclear Energy and National Security Coalition at @NEI Nuclear Energy Policy Forum: climate security, energy security and other national security interests are uniquely advanced by a robust U.S. nuclear energy enterprise.

@ChmnMendelson @ChmnMendelson at 22:22 claims DC must allow cannabis shops w/in 300 ft of schools in commercial zones, else not enough room for them to locate. See this map of commercial zones + 300ft buffer around all DC public and charter schools - plenty of room - prioritize kids over drugs!
