If we bury our heads in the sand and ignore what’s going on in the world around us it doesn’t exist right now? We have ways to transition all assets sustainably to 24/7 green energy and zero emissions solutions. This is an energy transition not a light switch. We need to decarbonize all sectors. Collectively we have the financial, technological and human capabilities to make it happen if we work together and collaborate. #247cleanenergy #carbonneutral #carbonnegative #vpp #wastetoenergy #co2capture #carboncredits #renewableenergy #energystorage

🌍 The U.S. presidential election is just around the corner, and the stakes couldn't be higher for the future of climate action! With two drastically different approaches from Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, the outcome will shape not just American policy but the global fight against climate change. 🌱 Whether it's advancing renewable energy or expanding fossil fuel production, the policies chosen in the next few weeks will have long-lasting impacts. Let’s keep an eye on the developments and continue pushing for progress. #ClimateAction #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #NetZero #CleanTech
“Over the past several decades, technology has opened up new ways of meeting consumers’ electricity demand. The 20th-century utility model doesn’t encourage this innovation. Instead, it defaults toward simply building more fossil-fuel-burning plants. As a result, consumers get a less reliable product at higher prices, and decarbonization takes a back seat”. Innovation in the utility business model is imperative for the energy transition as the current model is outdated and stalls decarbonization efforts. If nothing is done, it can become the Achilles’ heal.
"I can say from experience that starting a cocktail-party conversation about public-utility-commission elections is a good way to find yourself standing alone. But if you care about averting the most apocalyptic consequences of climate change, you need to care about utilities." Fantastic article by Brian Deese about the need for reform. More specifically, we need to create utility business models that make the energy transition a no-brainer for incumbents https://lnkd.in/egW5tkbd
The two parties are miles apart on climate and energy policy. Their platforms are different in substance, tone, and style, with one applauding fossil fuels and the other focusing on clean energy. Here are the key excerpts from the two parties' platforms so you can judge for yourself. https://lnkd.in/grmEk2Qq
🌍 With Donald Trump’s return to the White House, questions arise over US climate policy. While Trump may push fossil fuel interests, experts believe America’s clean energy transition will continue, thanks to strong state-level action and resilient clean energy advocacy. 🚗💡 Read more on Mexico Business News! #SustainableEnergy #USPolitics #EnergyTransition #ClimateAction #Environment #CleanTech
