The House Republicans' plan to revamp clean energy tax credits has a huge poison pill — a "foreign entities of concern" section that would bar any energy project or factory from claiming credits if they use materials even remotely tied to China: canarymedia.com/articles/clean…

The House GOP budget proposal contains far-reaching restrictions on foreign materials that would amount to a "back door repeal" of the Inflation Reduction Act, @jeffsaintjohn reports. "It’s going to grind everything to a standstill," one source said. canarymedia.com/articles/clean…

Part three of @CanaryMediaInc's data center series looks at how utilities, tech giants and other data center developers are choosing to take on the looming AI power crunch, not as an excuse to build dirty power plants, but as a clean-power opportunity: canarymedia.com/articles/utili…

Part two of @CanaryMediaInc's data center series explores a big problem for utilities trying to serve the AI boom — the uncertainty around where data centers will be built, how much power they'll need, and whether the AI boom will turn out to be a bust: canarymedia.com/articles/utili…

This week, @CanaryMediaInc explores the AI and data center boom forcing utilities and regulators to choose between bearing steep climate and consumer costs for what might end up a tech mirage, or finding a cleaner, cheaper and more sustainable way forward: canarymedia.com/articles/utili…

What will data centers do to the grid? And does it have to be bad?? Join me and four experts at this free webinar on Tuesday, Feb. 25 to talk through the AI boom, the grid crunch, and how cleaner pathways could also be cheaper and faster: forum.canarymedia.com/canary-media1/… 📷

The Trump admin’s likely illegal freeze of federal climate and energy funds has forced grant recipients to furlough workers, bear unreimbursed costs and delay projects. A federal judge has ordered the freeze to end. When will federal agencies comply? canarymedia.com/articles/polic…
