In the race to power data centers, asking which fuel will “win” is the wrong question.
My latest piece in @ForbesTechCncl explores why the path forward depends less on the fuel mix and more on how we structure energy deals.

Is the future of power on-grid or off-grid? That’s the wrong question.
My latest @ForbesTechCncl article explores why the right energy strategy for AI-era demand isn’t choosing sides—it’s building balance between on-grid efficiency and off-grid speed.

A U.S. electric grid completely powered by clean sources is not possible. Yet.
My latest @ForbesTechCncl article explores why we need a bridge to a fully clean energy solution for data centers.

Opportunity follows policy—especially in regulated industries where innovation thrives on smart regulation.
The rise of power-hungry data centers to advance AI makes clean energy adoption more urgent than ever.
My latest @ForbesTechCncl article explores how policy can bridge the gap.

With demand soaring, Independent Power Networks (IPNs) could revolutionize power delivery for super users like data centers.
My latest article with @ForbesTechCncl focuses on how IPNs are poised to transform our grid.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with @JMPyper on The World Changing Podcast. We discussed her work covering the clean energy transition as a journalist and podcaster for @Poli_Climate, our shared backgrounds of rock picking on farms as children, and her current work as VP of Public Affairs at @onegoodleap .
Hear from Julia on how her childhood experiences growing up on a farm in Ontario still inspires her today to work across party lines in the name of progress.

Today the grid faces a new complexity: a tremendous amount of demand for power from companies wanting to build data centers. To no fault of its own, the grid as we know it is not set up to bring these projects online with the current structures available.
Today, I shared an article via @ForbesTechCncl about the importance of reimplementing independent power networks.

Companies betting on a future driven by AI are hungry to build the data centers necessary to power their quickly scaling operations. This is leading to unprecedented power demands.
Last week, I shared an article via @ForbesTechCncl about solving the data center clean energy dilemma.

I had the opportunity to speak with Jonah Geil-Neufeld on We Are Not Doomed about the critical balance between AI data centers growing energy needs and clean energy integration.

We’re at a pivotal moment in the evolution of our energy landscape. As AI continues to drive innovation, the demand for data centers is soaring, and with it, the need for reliable, clean power.
Today, I shared an article via @ForbesTechCncl to shed light on the pressing challenge of closing the energy gap to power clean data centers.

I get asked a lot, "How can I learn about the energy sector?"
My go to answer for the better part of a decade has been,
"Read #freeingenergy by @bnussey."
So, I was thrilled to get to ask some of my burning questions.
Bill is one of my favorite people to talk to about just about anything. We tried to stick to energy and technology this time. His experiences as a tech entrepreneur, BigCo exec, author, speaker, venture capitalist, and as we learn in the episode, son have given him a unique perspective and approach to life.
Bill and I have had several conversations over the past 8 years.
Most of them we kept to ourselves.
Thanks to Bill for his time and @dancinflo for her production skills, we get to share this one with the world!
Thanks again, Bill. ⚡

The technologies we need to solve the environmental problem exist today.
Listen in as Aston co-founder and CEO @GregWRobinson sits down with author and Stanford professor @mzjacobson to discuss them ��️

I was the ultimate “long time listener first time caller” on this podcast with @mzjacobson.
I first discovered Mark’s research a little over a decade ago, when I was wondering why there was so much greenwashing and what it would take to *truly* run our digital, modern lifestyles on #CleanEnergy around the clock. Mark’s research and his new book, “No Miracles Needed” is not only an answer, but a How-To manual.
Thanks again for sharing your life’s work with @dancinflo and I! 🙏
"No Miracles Needed to 100% Clean Energy"
We have what we need to transition at much lower cost than current energy
Carbon capture, direct air capture, blue H2, electro-fuels, bioenergy, nuclear harm a transition

With $150B worth of outages each year, traditional power utilities are not gonna keep up with AI’s power demand given society’s demand for better and better AI tools.
@samshank@chrisfralic I thought I was a HT leaderboard contender at Level 32. First stay was 2015, San Diego. My bro’s wedding, stayed a few extra days to hang with my Dad. Great memory.
I bet there are some epic HT stories, especially from when the booking window was “tonight”.
