Is there a way to set up a tracker for new development approvals specifically allowed by the upzoning?

Very interested in tracking that against historical rents.

Depends on if they have eventual plans to in-source portions or all of their mfg - could be a smart way to scale initially to build credibility before undertaking capital intensive mfg buildouts

I think we need more people like you teaching the youths. This would be very noble.

Is there a chart that shows Biden’s tenure vs Trump?
September 7, 2025 at 2:59 PM
Tbh to me I’d probably pay more for that than I’d ever pay for a car.

I’d finance that up to 50-75k. Maybe more. Assuming that it would work with routine maintenance for 15-20 years.

Need to do all. Create good, repeal bad, amend/improve the things that work but can work better.

quick clarification: all of Africa’s imported solar WOULD be equivalent to 60% of Sierra Leone’s generation IF all of those imports went to Sierra Leone, they didn’t.

It’s a slightly useful comparison for scale I guess but also such a weird metric.

Yes because in all of human history, we weren’t allowed to make any progress in any field until all current ones were solved. That’s clearly how things work.

Many times those that claim they support social housing are actually NIMBYs in action - but this seems to be the contrary.

Excited!

Is she less NIMBY than Harrell?

Remote communities in Alaska that currently run on Diesel, certain defense/emergency systems where LCOE is not the priority and nations are willing to pay the premium for always on electricity, etc

But by & large, yeah most civilian utilities in most locations should be focusing on what you list

Remember when Cuomo & RFK jr teamed up to shut down a perfectly functional nuke plant in NYC and then emissions shot up.

I still get mad thinking about it.

I think RE/storage is the future broadly.

I dont think ghat means we shouldn’t build nuclear too.

China is doing all of the above & they are arguably the leader in the energy transition.

There are going to be specific edge cases where certain tech wins out - why not use every tool available?
July 27, 2025 at 1:48 PM
The West’s inability to build w/o getting in our own way is what is allowing China to “pull ahead” (if you view it as 0 sum) - in some cases its good environmental reasons but mostly its just this insistence that everyone and their mom should “have their voices heard” on every development project

Perfect - blue print for us in other states then!
July 25, 2025 at 4:37 PM
To keep this momentum - and to offset increased costs from lost IRA credits and tariffs - blue states like California need to enact drastic permit reform around renewables and storage.

Court hyperscalers - you want to build a data center? Build out RE and jump to the front of the permitting line

Amazing. Sq Ft?

Not yet but checkout Terraform Industries

A good analogy would probably be commercial airliners - significant cost increases during the era where safety, utilization rate, and maintenance downtime were being refined.

Once that era stabilized - we have then seen cost efficiencies increase within those families of modern aircraft.
July 19, 2025 at 9:54 PM
The nuclear industry has been stable on those fronts now for a while but that timeline doesn’t coincide with large buildouts in the US and France.

Would be interested in China and South Korea’s cost curves.
July 19, 2025 at 9:52 PM
One caveat here is during this timeline - we were also learning better how to safely operate, how to increase capacity factor, and having regulatory burden increase due to events such as Chernobyl and 3 Mile.
