A former ⁦@Cornell⁩ grad student named Lou Estevez just told me about this new podcast that he is part of, about demystifying the PhD process in #STEM. Can’t wait to check it out! https://t.co/5qbQi5Pxz0

This is it. Farley gets it. Automakers have no future beyond a shrinking US market for internal combustion trucks & SUVs if they cannot produce globally competitive, affordable EVs. It's the test of the century. Can they rise to the challenge or fade away to become 'has-beens'?

[Jesse D. Jenkins @JesseJenkins]

It's that time of year! @NREL's Annual Technology Baseline compendium of electricity generation and storage technology cost scenarios is out now. Dig in ⤵️

I cant get this idea out of my head: range-extended electric vehicles w/100+ mile electric range and a small efficient combustion engine/generator to power an all-electric drive train seem like the ideal near-term product for the American truck & giant SUV market. Here's why...

As we continue to grow the world’s silicon battery ecosystem from WA State, our team had the honor of hosting @nytime’s @BCAppelbaum to discuss the amazing support we’ve seen across the board, from local orgs to the @ENERGY, and why community matters: https://t.co/zVQYndmjPP

[Jesse D. Jenkins @JesseJenkins]

Places along America's inland waterways with access to cheap, abundant wind & solar could be poised for an industrial renaissance. Places like Omaha, Tulsa, Kansas City, St. Louis. Cheap electrons are ready for the taking & global markets for products accessible via barge.
