That photo was taken a day before tearing up the recent asphalt put down a few months ago after tearing up the bike lane! Is there a plan for this section of roadway? Or are we just writing checks to contractors? @HouPublicWorks @BikeHouston

"A year after the City of Houston began ripping up and reshaping Midtown's Austin Street for a drainage project, workers have not yet finished the job... The undertaking is already $1.6 million over its initial estimate, according to the City." axios.com/local/houston/…

I predict two outcomes. 1) Texans will be asked to subsidize nuclear power through some clever means. 2) Texas will pass laws to restrict wind, solar, and batteries. These three resources are on track to economically satisfy the State's growing power and reliability needs.
Governor Abbott Press Office@GovAbbottPress

To power Texas’ workforce & energy solutions, we must strengthen Texas’ advanced nuclear capacity. That’s why, today, Governor @GregAbbott_TX & TANEO opened applications to increase nuclear construction in the state. This will supply our state’s power needs for generations.

No, you don't get to redefine what is measured to create a fictitious new measure of efficiency. 100% is the limit. Some portion of the sunlight striking a surface is converted to electricity. Full stop.

Scientists achieve ‘impossible’ solar efficiency in renewables breakthrough The breakthrough allows cells to achieve an energy conversion efficiency of 130% – opening up new possibilities for ultra-efficient solar panels. independent.co.uk/news/science/s…

It's hard to grasp the pace of the solar and wind build-out: It took 22 years this century to install the first two terawatts of solar and wind capacity ...then it took just THREE years to build the next two! Totals matter short term. Long-term, scaling speed matters more.

“Article I of the Constitution gives Congress the exclusive power to declare war. This attack is very obviously large enough to qualify as a war. That means it just as obviously requires congressional authorization.” open.substack.com/pub/theunpopul…

“As James Madison put it: ‘In no part of the constitution is more wisdom to be found than in the clause which confides the question of war or peace to the legislature, and not to the executive department. ... [T]he trust and the temptation would be too great for any one man.’”

Trump withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that limited Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Within a year, Iran was ignoring the limits the JCPOA imposed. #war

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

New record in Texas / ERCOT with 83% of demand met by solar and wind this morning. Renewables providing >70% all day long. Batteries are charged up for the evening. #txenergy

Agreed! Deploying sheep at solar facilities lowers O&M $, improves the land & grows TX ag businesses. Proud of our members’ work on grazing & other innovative ways to ensure multi-purpose land use by working directly with private landowners who partner with industry. #txenergy
