In 2024, just 277 miles of new large-scale transmission lines were built. In 2013, it was 4,000.
That kind of decline isn’t an engineering problem. It’s a system one.
If we want to power the future, we need to execute at a national scale.
"It is truly insane that we just haven't bothered fixing the giant, one-hundred-year-old machine that powers everything we do." — CleanEcon Pres @AliyaHaq on the power grid @ClimateJobs Summit.
Clean energy is driving a manufacturing & jobs boom. Policy needs to clear the way.
CleanEcon's @AliyaHaq joined the keynote session on building & financing climate ventures @Yale_Ventures Innovation Summit.
From modernizing grid infrastructure to commercializing next-gen tech, CleanEcon is working to fix the policy environment so clean energy can compete & win
Next-gen geothermal remains slowed by high cost of resource confirmation.
@CleanEconProj, WSG & C3 Solutions are proposing a new Appraisal Risk Program at DOE.
Would provide concessionary support for resource appraisal drilling across diversified geologic basins.
Link below!
The key bottleneck for next-generation geothermal is the high cost of exploratory drilling at every new site.
Our new proposal with C3 Solutions + WaypointStrategy would help bridge the gap between exploration and deployment at @ENERGY.

Demand for clean energy is not slowing down. It’s accelerating. @CEBAPower's newest report shows U.S. companies contracted 13.4 GW of clean energy in Q1 2026 alone, more than all of 2021.
Businesses are investing. Now policy needs to keep up.

Rate freezes are a temporary band-aid that risk making the affordability problem worse.
If we want to keep electricity bills stable, we need to build more power plants + transmission lines. And love them or hate them, utilities have an important role to play.
MYTH: Rate freezes protect consumers.
They may stabilize bills in the nearterm. But what happens to the system when prices don't reflect the cost of building and maintaining it?
@daniel_wolf1 breaks down why short-term relief can lock in long-term pain in Ep. 2 of Myth v. Fact.
CleanEcon’s Cristina Shoffner joined @Macquarie's 2026 Policy Forum to discuss how the U.S. can win the global energy race.
Capital is ready to move, but capital follows certainty. That requires faster permitting, clearer interconnection, and policy that keeps up with demand.
Key insight from @daniel_wolf1 : the options can work together. You can get a more granular energy market (C) with state-overseen economic hedging (A). You can also find more and more interruptible loads of different flavors working with retail regulators (B).
Congratulations to @FervoEnergy on going public this week!
Fervo’s impact in Milford, UT - which we helped capture last fall - is a reminder that clean energy and economic prosperity go hand in hand.

Kicking off our Innovator Spotlights: Darren Hau, co-founder & CEO of Halo Materials.
Graphite is the largest component of a battery and a critical mineral for major industries. But, 97% is produced in China.
Halo is working to change that.

Our April update to the Electricity Price Hub (@heatmap_news + @MIT) is out.
TL;DR → U.S. electricity prices and bills remain at record highs, but the biggest increases are increasingly concentrated in specific states and utility territories.
CleanEcon Pres @AliyaHaq joined @ClimateOne at SF Climate Week on what it will take to deploy clean energy at speed and scale.
Her message: we’re no longer in a world where clean energy needs to be forced into the system.

The electric grid is now a front-page economic issue, but much of the conversation is getting the story wrong.
CleanEcon’s @daniel_wolf1 breaks down what’s really happening in our new series, Grid Myths vs. Facts.
Episode 1: Data centers aren’t the enemy 👇
Given @fervoenergy IPO news today... @CleanEconProj hosted a geothermal event in Sacramento last night, featuring the short film we released with Steph Speirs and Future in Bloom.
Watch the film to see what Fervo means for Utah's rural towns.

The takeaway: the technology is ready. Scaling it is the challenge. That means faster permitting and better policy alignment. Thanks to @EnvDefenseFund and @iuoe_union for partnering with us.
Yesterday in Sacramento, CleanEcon convened policymakers and industry leaders to discuss California’s potential to lead in next-gen geothermal—and screened Revival, the story of @FervoEnergy’s project revitalizing Milford, Utah.
