After 2GW+ of power project dev, desig & build..
99.9% of lenders, off-takers, owners & insurers care more about bank guarantees & the lawyer you use.

#energycasuals note LCOE is seldom used beyond pre-feasibility.
LCOE assumes all MWh are equal.
⚠️ please can we also implement mandatory registration of whiteware & home appliances; I find liberal use of ice makers very offensive.

The UK is now requiring solar panels in all new homes in response to Trump's war-induced energy crisis.
That's how we should respond now in a way that sets us up for the future.
Install ALL the solar panels!
Exactly.. why would you think electrical services are going to price so far below the alternatives; punters love getting reked because of empathy, economics doing economic stuff #techbroharder
As an economist I’m not surprised.

This video should be compulsory viewing for every net zero-obsessed politician, commentator, teacher and student.
Listen to an Oxford Prof explain why the UK’s energy costs are so ridiculously high.
It’s all self-inflicted.
Net stupid zero indeed.
#energycasuals please learn a small amount of math to sense check Embers post which are ambiguous & belong in the #techbroharder bin 🤷♂️
A first: Batteries have become so cheap that around-the-clock solar is becoming economically viable.
In 2024 alone, average battery prices fell by 40% and signs are a similar fall is occurring in 2025.
Pairing solar with enough batteries to keep the electricity flowing though the night is no longer a distant dream – it's an economic reality. At around just $76/MWh all in, dispatchable solar is already competitive with other forms of firm generation in many markets. https://t.co/MDQe6ct1Av

@e2dot7182818284 @xiaowang1984 Ahh yes, reverting back to the vacuum of bid, dispatch & clearing.
Most of those are very true as design statements, but not as equilibrium observations.
RRC ain't a flex when the portfolio "risk" others carry (not just in Tx) is whats bankable ...#techbroharder I guess 🤷♂️
#energycasual so.. reliability standards are built around inflexible peak demand, not the fantasy of perfectly price-responsive users, but uhh carry on complaining everyone's doing it wrong, I guess 🤷♂️ #techbroharder
Demand is way more elastic than people think.
We don’t see it because utilities don’t offer cost reflective pricing, so people build in ways that optimize for the wrong price signals.
This has been a massive issue for far longer than we’ve had cheap solar.
We’ve had the technology to lower grid costs for a long time, but without accurate price signals people have no incentive to do it.
Utilities are incentivized to do exactly the opposite. If they can justify more spending, they make a larger guaranteed return.
Seems many would love to their smart fridge, heatpump and EV under the utilities control; If I'm building that ⚡️control system, those hidden settings are going to load shed you whenever I want, F you and your cold beers, the grid needs it more.

When energy can’t be stored cheaply (think fixed costs #techbroharder) or losslessly, instantaneous use or curtailment becomes the equilibrium; and the cost of time-shifting rises non-linearly (approaching exponential) with penetration.
