The outcome of what was, until recently, an obscure US power market auction will be the subject of intense interest this week for electric generators, regulators and consumers alike https://t.co/iK4LK6CZ8n

Tech won't grow at the rate of user adoption or company targets, it will grow with the rate of power supply. @BPEInstitute

Ever wondered how practitioners actually do an EROI or net-energy analysis?

In a way, gold was the original energy currency, its supply grew with available net energy and the efficiency with which it could be mined, i.e. productivity. #biophysicaleconomics @BPEInstitute

[R. Patrick Kent (RPK) @RPKent]

To grow the economy productively we need to increase energy production. Nuclear has been a sleeping giant for decades. Fission in the next decades and possibly fusion beyond that. @BPEInstitute

Energy Scarcity Is Moving

Energy scarcity is migrating from liquid fuels to the power grid. What does that mean for markets, geopolitics, and growth?

The Signal Is Shifting

The “pain at the pump” era is fading. The new indicator of economic strain? Pain at the PLUG.
Jed Dorsheimer & David Murphy @RPKent deep dive into grid stress + energy scarcity on 12/18 Webinar

Money runs on energy. AI runs on even more.
The grid is cracking under the weight — and BPEI is one of the only groups explaining the physics behind it.
The moment is now.

[R. Patrick Kent (RPK) @RPKent]

The end of Moore's law has lead to an increase in EXTENSIVE versus INTENSIVE growth. Compute now scales almost directly with energy usage. @BPEInstitute https://t.co/D6ojVLrKpv

[R. Patrick Kent (RPK) @RPKent]

You know what’s stronger than neoclassical economic theories? Laws of thermodynamics. @BPEInstitute

[BioPhysicalEconomicsInstitute @BPEInstitute]

Everyone’s talking about AI.
Almost no one is talking about the energy it consumes.
That’s why BPEI exists — to bring biophysical reality back into the conversation.

[BioPhysicalEconomicsInstitute @BPEInstitute]

Want a clearer future?
Start by understanding the physics of prosperity.
That’s what BPEI brings to the table.

@CareyWKing such a great point - thanks Carey!

1/4 My long-awaited book is now out for purchase! "The Economic Superorganism: Beyond the Competing Narratives for Energy, Growth, and Policy" https://t.co/dDD7tQC2Xj. Read this book for a systems perspective on why economics and policy fails us due to lack of understanding ...

[BioPhysicalEconomicsInstitute @BPEInstitute]

The world is finally waking up to a simple truth:

Money runs on energy — and our systems are hitting limits fast.

AI + data centers are straining grids, driving up bills, and exposing how little we understand the physics behind our economy.
