An excellent analysis by Powerhouse Senior Director of Technology and Client Services, Octavi Semonin on the energy transition and why it may be taking longer than we may expect. Check out his full post for a detailed breakdown on how different ISOs are performing in the clean energy pipeline. #cleanenergy #energytransition #renewableenergy
Now that FERC has solved interconnection, I was curious how much production is really our queues. I've only seen this done on a nameplate capacity basis, which is a bit misleading IMO. It looks like we're closer than I thought! Now if we could just figure out how to plug it all in and store it and build a whole lot more of it.

Our energy grid is expected to see skyrocketing load demand, with data center power demand in the US alone on track to double from 2022 levels by 2030 (McKinsey). Meeting this demand with clean power and existing infrastructure will become increasingly difficult. Grid Enhancing Technologies (GETs) are hardware and software solutions that are deployed within existing transmission systems to help increase capacity, flexibility, and efficiency of power transfer. These GETs technologies have the potential of addressing the over $21B in estimated annual congestion cost for consumers. Powerhouse has mapped the GETs landscape in order to provide visibility to the different focus areas and highlight the major players in the field. TS Conductor who have installed over 1,000 km of lines globally in the last 5 years LineVision, who uses non-contact sensors and analytics to increase capacity and flexibility of transmission lines Smart Wires Inc., who has released a modular power flow control device capable of injecting a leading or lagging voltage push NewGrid, who is developing and commercializing topology optimization of grid assets Pearl Street Technologies, who has built digital grid planner tools to accelerate modeling and simulation study time for new projects by up to 200x #GridEnhancingTechnologies #CleanEnergy #MarketResearch Special thanks to Katherine Moldow.

In our latest episode of Watt It Takes, Emily Kirsch sits down with Shashank Samala, Co-Founder and CEO of Heirloom. Learn about Shashank’s journey from growing up in Southeast India to founding Heirloom, a hybrid DAC company using limestone as a sponge to pull carbon from the atmosphere. #directaircapture #carboncapture #mineralization
This month on Watt It Takes, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Shashank Samala, the Co-Founder and CEO of Heirloom, a hybrid direct air capture (DAC) and carbon mineralization company that uses limestone, an abundant and cheap mineral, as a sponge to pull carbon from the atmosphere. I spoke to Shashank about his journey, from growing up in Southeast India and experiencing the impacts of climate change firsthand, to attending high school in Maine, to founding his first startup Tempo Automation, to finally pursuing his passion for climate by founding Heirloom, which has established the first DAC facility in the US and has sold more than 400,000 tons of forward-purchase carbon removal credits. You can hear our conversation via the link below. Thank you to Microsoft for making this episode possible. #directaircapture #carbonmineralization #carbonsequestration
