Anyone that believes the PG&E story about their “data center demand” is a fucking moron.

Has there been a decomposition that you’ve seen of drivers between increased rate base capital spending, wildfire mitigation, fuel / import costs, renewable policy, etc. That’d be great to understand


There’s two views of the path for nuclear power right now: 1) One comes from the group that’s been advocating for nuclear over the last decade. Deploy what’s been proven. We already have everything we need. 2) The other lies with newcomers who believe a new approach is needed.

Finally got around to fixing the site and getting the latest data in it. A vastly improved @wattarchive is now available. Use it to query into utility-specific rates, run KPIs, visualize rate trends, and download or share your results. Best on desktop but works on mobile too.

We recently overhauled the site. Performance is better and it’s stable now. Check it out!



Imagine a word with full automation, fixed and finite money supply, and no property taxes. All return flows entirely to capital? A truly permanent underclass?


It’s easy to dunk on this and I agree with the dunkers. With that said, society is generally better when labor participation rate is higher, right? What’re we gonna do?

We need regulations that prevent companies from using AI to eliminate jobs to extract greater profits. Artists at these companies need to have a say in how AI is deployed. They should share in the profits. And there should be a tax on mass displacement.

do utility scale solar layout / simulation softwares optimize the design against hourly LMPs?


Where can I buy good kimchi in NYC that isn’t a dumb millennial branded little jar that costs like $15?


The only thing I like about a 50 year mortgage is it implies a new house has to last at least 50 years, which isn’t apparent in a lot of residential construction currently.


1) apply lots of out of market leverage 2) get the government to pay for 40% of it Thats the path?

This continues to be the graph of all graphs for making nuclear happen

For about $50B of batteries we can accommodate all of the load growth in the USA through 2030. But they have to be placed in the right places on the distribution grid. So this is going to be less 100 MW single deployment and more 3-8MW distributed deployments and C&I batteries.

Elon Musk: Just by adding stationary batteries to the grid, we could double the electricity production in the United States. “If you look at the total U.S. power generation capability, it's roughly a terawatt, but the average power usage is less than half a terawatt. That's…

Thx for sharing - I did a quick analysis and found that across IOUs, "industrial" load growth delivers modest but stat sig rate relief for residential ratepayers—roughly 0.001% per added gigawatt-hour. Wonder if data center load is "industrial" (not commercial)?
