For years, green groups have hailed electrification as a core climate solution. And now that we’re suddenly in the middle of historic load growth, they’re largely unprepared to meet the moment with big ideas. “We should all be embarrassed,” says Jane Flegal on this week's Open Circuit episode. For... a long time, the climate community talked about aggressive electrification and the need to expand and modernize the grid. But now that future is arriving, the response has been fragmented or defensive. Some groups have leaned into affordability. Others are debating who should pay. And there are increasing calls for data center moratoriums. But there’s been very little thinking about how to plan and build at the scale this moment actually requires. "There's kind of like a rude awakening happening now, where everyone's like, ‘what was our plan to actually build?' she says. Jane has an idea. She proposes a new kind of grid infrastructure fund to bring hyperscalers, utilities, and policymakers into tighter coordination and to use demand as leverage to invest in the grid in a way that actually serves the public. Jigar Shah and I dug into the idea with her. We are mired in debates about grid-connected vs off-grid data centers, gas vs renewables, and who should pay for it all. But those debates are downstream of a bigger issue: we don’t have a system that can plan, coordinate, and build the grid for this era.show more

DON'T BAN 'EM; MAKE 'EM PAY! Jane Flegal served as Senior Director for Industrial Emissions in the Biden White House. At Searchlight, she's spearheading novel policy ideas that can turn America's data center buildout into massive public benefits for working families. There are already more than 4,000 data centers across the country. Instead of a moratorium on these facilities, Jane proposes an American Grid Infrastructure Fund — a new system which would ensure: 1. Families only pay for the electricity they use, and never pay more because of data centers 2. Data centers invest in the grid by funding massive, generational upgrades to the electricity system we all use — ending decades of neglect 3. Regulators can hold companies accountable to every single commitment they make In addition to the Fund, she has also proposed that states use tax incentives to 'make data centers better grid citizens:' take-or-pay load commitments, full cost causation, and more. Jane and Danielle Deiseroth sit down to discuss. 0:00 - State tax abatement 7:12 - A federal moratorium vs. modernizing the grid 11:50 - Permitting reform ... and then what? 17:02 - Why this moment needs bigger ideas 25:10 - Revisiting the Inflation Reduction Act 30:10 - Climate hushing; 'don't say climate'

Catherine Austin Fitts argues that Donald Trump was installed by bankers to construct a digital control grid comprised of programmable money, digital ID, and a social credit system. She maintains that Trump is expendable now that the infrastructure for this system is complete. "So let's look at the control grid. There are three general baskets of what you need to do. The first is programmable money. The second is digital ID... And then the third is you need the hardware and the software infrastructure to do the social credit system." "And so you need all the data centres... But you also need a surveillance infrastructure and enforcement infrastructure to back it." "So how do you persuade conservatives... to embrace building that infrastructure? The way you do it is you say, oh, we have election fraud, or oh, we have an immigration problem. And so we need a digital ID to identify who everybody is so we can't have fraud." "If you look at everything [Trump has] done to build the control grid, or to put the conditions in place to do it, they now have what they need." "Trump is basically expendable now."

At Searchlight, we believe in charting the future of public policy. That includes finding real answers to the significant policy questions of the data center buildout and our nation's aging grid. Danielle Deiseroth explains Jane Flegal's pitch for an American Grid Infrastructure Fund — which would ensure private gains from AI are channeled into public benefits and lower electricity costs for everyone.

Nish Kumar, "What is the Green Party's vision for how we redraw the economy of this country?" Zack Polanski, "We need to have a conversation about privatisation, the water companies are the most obvious ones" "It's often talked about, that taking water into public hands would be an experiment. It's completely the other way round. Privatisation was the experiment" "And privatisation has utterly failed" "Whether we're talking about the movement of council homes to private landlords. Or water companies who took our water infrastructure with £0 debt and now have £ billions in debt. They're pumping sewage into the water. And charging us extra for the privilege" "I want to lower people's bills. People in this country are tired and exhausted. Wages are not going up but bills are going up. We need to lower bills and raise wages" "One way to do this is to stop this exploitation of every single person in this country who uses a water company that has been sold off for private profit at our expense, and we're paying the consequences for that" "The first thing is to have a big conversation about public ownership" "Nothing we need, and need to use, should be in private hands. All of our utilities should be nationalised"

🇺🇸 AI IS PUSHING AMERICA’S POWER GRID TO THE BRINK - TRUMP ADMIN SAYS IT’S GO TIME The U.S. power grid - built for a world of lightbulbs and radios - is now being asked to power AI data centers, electrified factories, and a surging high-tech economy. And it’s not ready yet. At the Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit, Trump, his Cabinet, and energy leaders declared the grid crisis urgent. They're calling for a national overhaul as AI threatens to double electricity demand in the coming decades. Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "The grid we have today wasn’t built for the world we’re entering. We need a grid that grows with the economy, not one that holds it back." Source: Fox News

Pauline Hanson’s One Nation is polling well because she is a straight talker who says what so many are thinking. ‘The division that is happening in this country has to stop. We are all Australians and should be treated equally and the same. And I’ll keep pushing that! If I have any legacy to leave in this country it will be about equality for all Australians. That we are proud of who we are as a nation and build on that.’ Time to make Australia great again. 🙌🔥🙌🔥🙌

Another weekend project: GridStore Jean Cavallera and I are building simple but useful dApps that make LUKSO more accessible and easier to use. This is GridStore, an “app store” for Grid templates. You can choose a template you like and, with a single transaction, upload it to your Universal Profile and use it as your Grid. This is made possible by LSP28 The Grid, where the configurations of your Grid are stored in a JSON file on IPFS. The value stored under your ⁩LSP28TheGrid⁨ data key stored on your Universal Profile points to your grid configuration JSON file. By adding the value of a grid template you like under the ⁩LSP28TheGriddata key, you can set immediately that template on your Grid and start customizing it, saving you time. If you have ideas for useful templates for brands, artists, influencers, or any other use case: set up the Grid on a Universal Profile, go to look up the profile, and send me the “Raw value” together with a short explanation of the Grid so it can be added to the store. Or add your own templates to the store by opening a PR: It would really help if we can create some high-quality templates that the whole community can use. You can check out the store here:

Today is a defining moment for National Grid as we announce a significant step up in energy infrastructure investment that cements our position as a leader in the energy transition on both sides of the Atlantic. We’re investing around £60bn in networks in the next five years, with over £30bn of that in the UK. This investment will unlock economic growth and enable the increasingly digital, electrified and decarbonised economies of the future. National Grid will support 55,000 more UK jobs by the end of the decade. To finance this unprecedented scale of investment and growth, we’ve announced a comprehensive financing plan including a £7 billion fully underwritten rights issue. This is a huge growth opportunity for National Grid that will bring significant benefits for the whole country.

“The bankers put Trump in to build the control grid.” “And he’s done an A+ job of building it.” “It’s a uniparty.” Catherine Austin-Fitts just broke down how Trump is finishing a decades-long plan to turn America into a mass surveillance police state. “I think Trump … was chosen by the New York Fed member bankers to get the control grid.” “His job was to persuade.” “There are three general baskets of what you need to do.” “The first is programmable money.” “The second is digital ID.” “To do programmable money, you require digital ID.” “And then the third is you need the hardware and the software infrastructure to do the social credit system and surveillance that you need to do those two things.” “So you need all the data centers … but you also need a surveillance infrastructure and enforcement infrastructure to back it.” “How do you persuade conservatives and people in the heartland to embrace building that infrastructure?” “You say, we have election fraud, or we have an immigration problem.” “And so we need a digital ID.” “And we need to put together a private army called ICE with detention centers all over the country who are free to enforce without constitutional protections in violation of the law to get these hardened criminal immigrants out.” “But in fact, it’s not to get the hardened immigrants out.” “It’s to manage the control grid.” The Solari Report | Catherine Austin Fitts Paul Buitink 🎙

Hochul on Data Centers: You have these big companies come in. One company at 50 megawatts—that’s the equivalent of powering 50,000 homes, just one company. So I had to step back and say we need to pause here. We are the first in the nation to have a statewide moratorium on the issuance of permits to allow these projects to go forward. What this is going to do is allow us to have a list for local communities. If you want them to come to your community, that is a community’s choice. But here’s a whole list of things you should be asking for. I’m also demanding that if you come here, you have to provide your own power or pay a premium into our grid. You’re not going to make ratepayers pay more. You’re also going to contribute to a larger grid resiliency fund that I’m setting up with those proceeds because I need to reinforce and expand our entire grid. Also, you should not be getting tax breaks. New Yorkers pay enough. They don’t think their hard-earned taxpayer dollars should be given to you so that you can avoid paying taxes yourself while the rest of us are paying our full freight. If someone comes to New York, we want you to be successful, but others have to be successful as well. You’re not going to build your future while jeopardizing and sacrificing the future of others in a community—especially these smaller communities, where they seem to be preying on the locals and just forcing their way in the door.

Free electricity for every American? Chamath explains how it’s possible. Chamath Palihapitiya: “I think the president should try to create a $300B-$500B tax equity fund and help eliminate the electricity costs of 50-100M American households.” “If you actually go to solar and storage, for every 15 million homes, you take a terawatt hour of demand off the grid, that's an extra terawatt hour that you don't need to build.” “So the reason why I like solar and storage is you make these folks so self-reliant.” “Now all of a sudden we're actually catching up to China faster than we would've otherwise.” “We actually get a 2-for-1. The consumer homes don't have that anxiety anymore. They don't have the bill. And because they're generating their own power, they're off the grid, and now what that means is that extra terawatt hour can actually go to the commercial and industrial applications, including these datacenters.” “The president preserved the ability to make those kinds of investments and be tax advantaged for doing it in the One Big Beautiful Bill.” @jason: “And if we want to live in the age of abundance, and we want to bring the bottom half of the country up, and we want affordability, where do people spend their money?” “Food, groceries, their rent, and their electricity, and the utilities.” “So it doesn't come out of Americans' pockets and their taxes, it comes out of corporations, which are printing money.” “If you wanna talk about redistribution of wealth, this is a way for the great American Mag 7 corporations to give something back to Americans.” Chamath: “We will look back and I think that we will want to have seen these big companies who are unbelievably profitable, step up on behalf of American homeowners.”

$People in Utah have started asking us an important question, when you build these power facilities for AI data centers, can some of that energy be sold back into the local grid? The answer is yes. That completely changes the conversation. Instead of being seen as “the evil data center guys,” we can help power Utah’s grid while also building critical AI infrastructure for the future. And despite the headlines, we’re not building the world’s largest data center overnight. We’re starting with just 1.5 gigawatts with 1 gigawatt of net IT load a small fraction of the long-term proposal and proving the model first. And it’s not a 40,000 acre data center. Our project a full build out will span 10-13k acres 7,500 of which will be preserved. We want the people of Box Elder County to come see it themselves, the EPA air quality standards, the water permits, the noise compliance, and how the project actually operates before anything scales further.$

.Scott Nolan to Shawn Ryan: Energy Will Decide U.S.-China Race for AI and Economic Dominance "I think the next decade's going to be all about energy. Even Sam Altman from OpenAI had some recent hearing or talk where he talked about just the evolution of AI. You've got algorithms. Algorithms run on chips, but ultimately the chips need electricity. And what he said, if thinking back to this interview, the algorithms are going to get better and better and better and cheaper, and the chips will get cheaper and cheaper, but at the end of the day, you have to get the electrons, and the electrons have a fundamental price, and ultimately it's going to come down to that. I think even the AI, the AI competition between different companies in the U.S., between different countries, it's ultimately going to come back to the electricity production. Next decade, it's going to be all about power production. AI, military, if you think you need kinetics and military, that comes back to manufacturing. If you think economics, we have to have the biggest economy so that we can just have the most productive capacity, energy. Next decade is going to be all about energy, and we've stayed flat for a decade, for 15 years, we haven't done anything, more like 20 years, our grid's been pretty stagnant, and if we want U.S. leadership, it's going to have to grow. I think that's going to be the story we see, and it's going to be about solving different supply chain needs, whether it's fuel, maybe it's transformers, maybe it's transmission, all these things are going to come up. It's going to be chips. We'd have to go back to that chart and see exactly where is China today, where were they before in terms of per capita, but I think a lot of that production, the doubling of their grid relative to our grid, a lot of that's gone into manufacturing. We've shifted manufacturing from the U.S. to overseas. A lot of that's in China now, we've let them do it. A big part of that, people thought was, well, Chinese labor is much cheaper, but a lot of these processes can be automated. And so once you automate it, it just comes back to energy cost. And so China said, let's double our grid. Let's keep going. Let's work on tripling our grid, and we'll do it in the cheapest way possible because we want to win on manufacturing and get all this economic activity over here. Meanwhile, the U.S. has said, we have a bunch of regulations, which are good, and probably some that are unnecessary and have slowed us down, and so we haven't done the growth, and we've been very thoughtful about emissions, environmental impact, carbon. Meanwhile, China's doubling, tripling their grid and has done a lot of that with coal. And so we've shifted manufacturing here that would have been cleaner over there and just probably ended up net producing more carbon than we would have, more pollutants than we would have, and just kind of outsourced that. But as we know, carbon flows everywhere. If you're really worried about carbon emissions, letting China double their grid with coal and move energy-intensive manufacturing there is not actually the answer. The answer is the U.S. has to unblock building here, doing industrial activity, do it cleanly, do it with nuclear or other sources, even natural gas, half the carbon emissions of coal, and the world would be way better off. Their grid doubling hasn't just meant that everyone there has a better quality of life. I think it just means that we've taken a lot of manufacturing from here and done it over there."

If you're really worried about carbon emissions, letting China double their grid with coal and move energy-intensive manufacturing there is not actually the answer. The answer is the U.S. has to unblock building here, doing industrial activity, do it cleanly, do it with nuclear or other sources, even natural gas, half the carbon emissions of coal, and the world would be way better off. Their grid doubling hasn't just meant that everyone there has a better quality of life. I think it just means that we've taken a lot of manufacturing from here and done it over there."

Mamdani: My dream is not that we hold every bad landlord accountable. My dream is that we don’t have to. My dream is that every landlord is responsive to their tenants and that every landlord is following housing code. And I know that there are many landlords who are like that. The issue, however, is that there are a number of bad landlords who have been able to operate with impunity, with no consequences for their actions. And part of what this housing plan puts forward is specifically funding to ensure that we can hold these kinds of landlords accountable, and especially the top 10 worst landlords in New York City, so that we can actually start to explore all of the tools we need to transfer ownership of those properties to people who will actually steward them safely, whether they’re a nonprofit, a community land trust, or the tenants themselves. That is how we are looking at this because, frankly, this is the law, and for too long housing code has been treated like a suggestion, not a requirement.

$AMZN CEO: “There is a power shortage in the US and the world.” For new data centers, the most optimistic grid connection wait time is 3 years as power transformer lead times stretch to 12-24 months. So, most of the developers and hyperscalers are resorting to natural gas as it’s the fastest option. But even then, permitting is still an issue and risks delays and cancellations as is the case for $NBIS New Jersey data center. Power is now a bigger bottleneck for scaling AI than it’s ever been.

Union Minister Piyush Goyal- "Europe & US does not have a national grid. But India has a national grid. So we are a preferred destination for data centres and as they are planning a growth in the years to come. We cannot allow people to be deprived of adequate power. Coal production will also help us reduce import further (of the dry fuel). We have already reduced our imports."

Robert Friedland on the masive copper shortage to meet future grid, clean energy and AI demand: “We’re consuming 30m tonnes of copper a year. Only 4m tonnes of which is recycled. That means to maintain 3% GDP growth — with no [further] electrification — we have to mine the same amount of copper in the next 18 years as we mined in the last 10,000 years, combined. In the next 18 years, I’ve got to mine the same amount of copper as we mined the last 10,000 years. [This is without any new] electrification, without data centers, without solar and wind and the greening of the world economy. You people have no idea whatsoever what we’re facing.”
