Intersect Power to Build $837M Worth of Grid Batteries in Texas

[Think. Again.]

11. Yes...

...that 2.9% increase in consumption from 2010 to 2023 that your research show is definitely not good considering the covid years it covers. And I'm assuming the data-processing growth will only make things worse.

And the electric power related CO2 emissions growth from 2019 (1,427 mmt) to 2023 (1,618 mmt), which was pretty much the entire covid period, is definitely ominous considering the increases in clean electric generation during that same time.

As the article mentions, we are still way too far behind in reaching even the low expectations of the Paris agreement. We just don't have a lot more time to get the clean energy ball rolling.

And I do find it ironic that oil-rich Texas is making the fastest gains so far, but certainly glad to see it especially since, as you pointed out, Texas has such a high electricity consumption rate!
