Have you noticed recently how the most unlikely souls are now talking with authority about the grid as if they were electrical engineers?
U.S. power giants NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy announced plans Monday to merge in the largest electricity deal — by far — since the mainstreaming of AI. Why it matters: The deal, if approved by regulators, would enable massive scale as the industry looks to expand generation and related infrastructure to meet rising demand. - The all-stock merger "creates the world's largest regulated electric utility business by market capitalization and one of the world's largest energy infrastructure companies," the companies said in a joint announcement. - The potential merger would expand NextEra's presence in the fast-growing PJM grid region of the Midwest and mid-Atlantic. Stunning stats: The combined company would serve about 10 million…
A deal, involving the utilities in Florida and Virginia, would come as demand for power is soaring, largely because of the rapid growth of A.I. data centers.

UK Special Coverage The UK Biomess Wishcasting is not a viable energy policy. UK Special Coverage “The emission factor for biomass shall be zero .” Thus spoke the EU, in its Emissions Trading System Directive, the cap-and-trade law that went into effect in 2005. And zero it has been for the purposes of energy and climate policy, net-zero accounting, and ascertaining whether a power producer qualifies for “renewables” subsidies. But thermodynamics, chemistry, planetary physics, and other stubborn corners of reality are subject neither to repeal nor to gaming, not even by Brussels. And one of those stubborn corners is in North Yorkshire, England, site of the 2.6 gigawatt Drax Power Station, a biomass (primarily wood-burning) facility…Open
