Commonwealth Fusion just closed an oversubscribed $863M B2 round... with Google, NVIDIA, Morgan Stanley and electric utilities. From science to engineering to mass manufacturing, CFS is leading the charge to what many call the holy grail of clean energy — abundant, carbon-free, continuous 24/7 power in any geography. Energy drives the wealth of nations, and China has been adding new energy at a pace 20x that of the U.S. We need magnetic fusion to fully power the estimated 10x growth in electricity needs for AI data centers and EVs with emission-free energy. Future Ventures and Khosla Ventures did the Series A. Vinod Khosla: “CFS is one of the most impactful and ambitious projects I have seen in my whole career.” New investor Laurene Powell Jobs: “To meet the challenges of this century, we need energy that is abundant, clean, and accessible everywhere. That’s what fusion offers. For the first time in history, we have a real opportunity to commercialize the long-held promise of fusion power, and CFS has just taken a decisive step toward making that promise a reality."

wow. This is insane A Nobel laureate claims his... high‑pulse laser system could unlock safe, uranium‑free fusion and power hundreds of thousands of homes if prototypes succeed 🤯! Shuji Nakamura, a nobel price winning physicist who invented the blue LED, is now leading Blue Laser Fusion, a company aiming to make commercial nuclear fusion a reality. Nakamura estimates that about 99.5% of fusion research has focused on magnetic confinement, while his team is pursuing the remaining 0.5% through advanced laser technology. At the heart of the concept is OEC, an Optical Enhancement Cavity that stores high-energy laser pulses and can amplify them by up to 100,000×. According to the team, this could provide precise control over the fusion process while improving efficiency and reducing engineering risks. Researchers at the UCSB compare the system to a hammer and an anvil: the laser acts as the hammer that strikes the hydrogen fuel target, while the optical chamber acts as the anvil, storing and regulating the laser energy needed to initiate fusion. If development stays on schedule, Blue Laser Fusion plans to build a 1-gigawatt pilot fusion power plant near Santa Barbara by 2032, capable of supplying electricity to hundreds of thousands of homes. Nakamura's blue LED transformed energy-efficient lighting around the world. As per the International Energy Agency, if older lighting technologies were still used, global indoor lighting electricity consumption would be about 70% higher, while the electricity saved by LEDs is comparable to the power consumption of South Korea. Now, Nakamura hopes to make an even bigger impact through Blue Laser Fusion by developing virtually limitless, zero-carbon fusion energy that could transform how the world powers homes, industry and future technologies.show more

russian drones and missiles targeted the electricity network, two... DTEK thermal power plants and key high-voltage substations. Damage to those substations has forced operators to reduce output at nuclear power plants, leading to a significant loss of available electricity in Ukraine. Although the energy system is operating at maximum capacity, the attacks have drastically reduced electricity supply. In Kyiv, residents have electricity for just 1.5 to 2 hours a day. Ukraine's energy workers need the help of our allies to strengthen air defences and send emergency energy equipment and mobile generators. #StandWithUkraineshow more

For the first time ever, we brought vehicles onchain... this past week. OpenVPP has begun building a portfolio of flexible energy resources for grid providers, starting with vehicles in our OpenVPP World Beta. So why does this matter? Energy abundance has always been the cornerstone of societal advancement. Access to energy is directly linked to GDP. Simply put: There are no wealthy countries that don’t also have abundant access to energy. Utilities now, more than ever, are challenged to deliver on data center, EV fleet, and electrification growth all while finding ways to reduce the billions of dollars of planned infrastructure upgrades. OpenVPP can solve that, and, we’re just getting started. Stay tuned, VPPs. More to come this week. $OVPP the Internet of Energy.show more

ELON MUSK: The future of AI data centers is... space and sooner than you’d think. Mark my words… in 36 months the most economically compelling place to put AI will be space. JENSEN HUANG: The amount of energy that we need for computing is probably 1,000x more than we currently have. JEFF BEZOS: The idea of data centers in space is very realistic. Data centers in space will happen. SAM ALTMAN: No. —— Sam Altman is getting too comfortable after taking OpenAI from Elon, forgetting that in the end, the ones who control the infrastructure, data centers and energy, will decide the future of AI.show more

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian: “Last winter we experienced power... outages and shutdowns, but this year there were none. We must ensure that this does not happen in the summer either. The public should not have to endure electricity shortages in the summer. Cutting gas and electricity to factories is unacceptable, as it causes heavy economic losses and has a cascading impact on employment and tax revenues. The solution to the energy crisis lies in efficient consumption. Energy consumption in Iran is three times higher than in Western countries. Bringing clean energy into the system will create a major transformation in energy consumption patterns.”show more

A few points on the Powering Canada Strong announcement... that is important to understand; * Doubling Canada's electricity generation capacity is paramount. I just wish it wouldn't take 20+ years. We don't generate enough electricity to be self-sufficient or participate in future industries. We have no choice. Has to be done. It's something I called for a while and spoke on. * Linking the connectivity of Canada's fragmented grid. This is a must to increase productivity, and remove waste. It's a one step back for two steps forward type of investment. * the connection and expansion of the grid is one of the important things we need to do reach mining areas and develop these sectors and for the growth of smaller communities around. The problem with these whole announcement is that it is all net zero based which means it won't necessarily build the most reliable possible grid for the $ and will other ridiculous costs to be carbon tax trading based on the way. It's completely inefficient from capital planning point. Mark Carney says: It will require the spreading of costs over time using our AAA balance sheet so that ratepayers don't pay all of the costs of investments today. That means the government is planning to borrow MASSIVELY! That cost will appear not only in your electricity bill but also in the value of the CAD and interest costs that is already hitting record every single year. This plan is utilizing legitimate needed action to transform all of Canada's energy need into ideological driven carbon tax trade system and inefficient power generation that all together will cost Canadian taxpayers hundreds of billions more than it should.show more
