  • Trump Fails, Again, To Stop The US Wind Industry

    The article details the latest legal setback for former President Trump’s efforts to halt the US offshore wind industry, highlighting a recent federal court ruling that allowed the massive 800-megawatt Vineyard Wind project in Massachusetts to resume work. This decision came after the Trump administration issued a stop-work order citing national security concerns, which a judge found to be irrational and poorly justified, especially since 44 of the project’s 62 turbines were already operational and delivering electricity. The ruling emphasized that if the government’s concern was truly about turbine operation, it made no sense to allow turbines to run while prohibiting repairs and completion of the remaining turbines. This case marks the fourth judicial defeat for Trump’s attempts to impede offshore wind projects, with courts consistently ruling against the administration’s efforts to block development once leases had been granted. Although Trump had initially halted new offshore lease approvals and ordered work stoppages on projects under construction, courts have maintained that lease-holders have the right to complete their projects unless there is a compelling

  • Capitalism at a Crossroads: Profit & Public Purpose in Clean Energy - CleanTechnica

    The article discusses Brett Christophers’ analysis of the challenges facing the clean energy transition, as presented in his book. Despite renewable energy often being cheaper to produce than fossil fuels, investment levels remain insufficient to meet climate goals. Christophers attributes this to the profit-driven nature of private capital, which finds renewables less attractive due to their low marginal costs and resulting thin profit margins. In contrast, fossil fuels maintain profitability through controlled scarcity and market structures favoring incumbents. Consequently, relying solely on private investment will not accelerate the transition fast enough, and the state must play a much larger role by owning infrastructure or guaranteeing returns through subsidies and long-term contracts. Christophers argues that electricity should be treated as a public good, better managed through planned, coordinated investment rather than volatile spot markets. He calls for a significant expansion of public ownership and leadership in renewable energy, effectively socializing electrical generation to bypass profit motives that hinder progress. However, critics note that the situation is more nuanced: renewable profitability varies by

These laws, such as the Federal Land Policy and Management Act’s prohibition against “unnecessary or undue degradation,” are being weaponized to block wind and solar developments. Critics argue this is an abuse of environmental regulations, turning tools meant to protect nature into obstacles for clean energy expansion. A key example highlighted is the Interior Department’s recent capacity density order, which sets strict limits on how much energy can be generated per unit of land. This metric, focusing narrowly on energy density, is criticized for ignoring the broader environmental and economic benefits of renewables. Experts point out that renewable installations can be removed and land restored relatively quickly, unlike fossil fuel infrastructure that causes long-term contamination. The article suggests that this approach by the Department of the Interior effectively acts as a ban on renewable projects on federal lands

  • China to flight-test world’s first megawatt-level 'windmill' airship

    China is preparing to flight-test the world’s first megawatt-level airborne wind turbine system, the S1500, developed by Beijing SAWES Energy Technology Company in collaboration with Tsinghua University and the Aerospace Information Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The S1500 is an airship-like floating turbine designed to harness high-speed, steady winds at an altitude of 1,500 meters (4,921 feet), where wind speeds are roughly three times faster than at conventional wind turbine heights of 200 meters. With a power generation capacity of 1 megawatt—equivalent to a traditional 100-meter wind turbine—the system uses helium for buoyancy and incorporates 12 carbon fiber micro-generators within its duct, weighing less than one tonne in total. Electricity generated in the sky is transmitted to the ground via cable. This project builds on SAWES’s previous achievements with smaller airborne turbines: the S500, which reached 500 meters altitude producing over 50 kW

  • Republicans Put Pressure On Trump To Salvage Funding For Renewables - CleanTechnica

    The article discusses growing pressure from several Republican Senators on the Trump administration to preserve funding for renewable energy projects, particularly those supported by the Inflation Reduction Act under the Biden administration. Despite Trump’s public stance favoring an “all-of-the-above” energy strategy, his administration has actively sought to impede solar and wind energy development. Republican concerns stem from the risk that insufficient energy production could lead to consumer dissatisfaction and electoral repercussions in 2026. Senator Mike Rounds of South Dakota highlights the necessity of including wind energy to meet rising power demands, noting that over half of clean energy projects initiated since the Inflation Reduction Act face jeopardy, threatening jobs and investments in communities that traditionally favor limited government intervention. Complicating the energy landscape, the oil and gas industry itself shows limited enthusiasm for expanding fossil fuel production, as market factors like oil prices and global supply-demand dynamics outweigh political incentives. Meanwhile, renewable energy’s appeal continues to grow, with 96% of new global electricity demand met by renewables last

  • A Powerful Essay On Renewable Energy Exposes US To Ridicule

    The article critiques the current U.S. administration’s approach to renewable energy, highlighting an essay by climate activist Bill McKibben published in The New Yorker. McKibben emphasizes the rapid growth of solar power, noting that the world installed its first terawatt of solar capacity over nearly seven decades, but subsequent terawatts have come much faster due to modern, mass-produced solar technology. He also underscores that wind energy, driven by solar-induced atmospheric movements, is a significant but often overlooked component of the renewable energy landscape. Despite this momentum, the article argues that the U.S. government, particularly under President Donald Trump’s administration, has hindered progress, especially in offshore wind development. The U.S. offshore wind industry, with its vast potential given the country’s extensive coastlines and infrastructure expertise, has faced setbacks due to shifting federal policies. While the Trump administration initially accelerated offshore wind leasing, it later halted the federal offshore lease program, stalling many projects. Although some projects began

  • The Grain Belt Express Wind Energy Superhighway Is Still Alive

    The Grain Belt Express is a major 5-gigawatt, 700-mile high-voltage direct current transmission project designed to transport wind energy from Kansas to multiple Midwestern and Eastern states. Initially launched by Clean Line Energy in 2009, the project faced numerous regulatory hurdles, including rejections by the Missouri Public Service Commission in 2015 and 2016. After a Missouri Supreme Court ruling in 2018 allowed the project to proceed, Clean Line dropped it in 2019. Invenergy, a Chicago-based company, then acquired the project amid mixed regulatory support, with Missouri eventually approving it while Illinois rejected it. Despite opposition from state lawmakers and property owners, Invenergy secured nearly $4 billion from Blackstone Infrastructure Partners and municipal utilities to advance the project. In early 2024, the U.S. Department of Energy conditionally approved a $4.9 billion loan guarantee for Phase I of the Grain Belt Express, covering a 578-mile, 2.5-g

  • Google Has An Energy Storage Message For Fossil Fuels

    Google is advancing into long-duration energy storage with a novel CO2-based battery technology developed by the Italian startup Energy Dome. This innovation compresses CO2 into a liquid state at ambient temperatures, enabling a closed-loop system where CO2 is cycled between gas and liquid phases to store and generate electricity. Unlike current lithium-ion batteries, which typically provide around four hours of storage, Energy Dome’s system aims for 8 to 24 hours of energy storage, addressing the need for longer-duration solutions critical for integrating high levels of intermittent wind and solar power into the grid. The first US deployment, the Columbia Energy Storage Project in Wisconsin, supported by utility Alliant Energy and others, received regulatory approval and is expected to be operational by 2027. This project is designed to enhance grid stability and resilience, providing enough electricity to power approximately 18,000 homes for 10 hours. The emergence of such long-duration storage technologies poses a significant challenge to fossil fuel power plants, particularly natural gas, by enabling

  • Lisa Murkowski Has Been Burned By Trump And Is Shocked! Shocked! - CleanTechnica

    U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) feels betrayed by the Trump administration after supporting the Inflation Reduction Act (referred to as the OBBBA in the article), which included nearly $500 billion in clean energy spending. Murkowski was the deciding vote for the bill, having secured protections for Alaskan wind and solar projects threatened by funding cuts. As a longtime advocate for oil and gas, she also supports a diversified energy approach including renewables, especially to address Alaska’s energy challenges like the Railbelt grid’s shortfall and reliance on costly diesel imports for rural communities. Initially, she viewed her support as a strategic compromise to keep clean energy projects viable. However, shortly after the bill’s passage, Murkowski criticized the Trump administration for issuing an executive order that restricts solar and wind project awards while favoring fossil fuels and hydropower, undermining the clean energy provisions she helped negotiate. She accused the administration of being disingenuous and warned that this move

  • Wind Farms Outlast Expectations: Longevity Matches Nuclear - CleanTechnica

    The article challenges the common assertion by nuclear energy proponents that nuclear power plants have a significant advantage over wind farms in terms of operational lifespan. While nuclear reactors typically have licensed lifespans of 40 to 60 years, often extended to 80 years, recent developments in wind energy demonstrate that wind farms can match or even exceed these durations. A notable example is Denmark’s Middelgrunden offshore wind farm, initially expected to operate for 25 years but recently granted a 25-year extension without major equipment replacement, effectively doubling its lifespan to 50 years. Other Danish wind farms like Nysted and Samsø have also received operational extensions, with potential for further life prolongation. In addition to lifespan extensions through maintenance and inspections, the practice of repowering—replacing older turbines with fewer, larger, and more efficient ones—significantly enhances the longevity and output of wind farms. The Ovenden Moor wind farm in the UK exemplifies this, having increased its electricity production by 2

  • How Has U.S. Energy Use Changed Since 1776? - CleanTechnica

    As of 2024, the United States consumed approximately 94 quadrillion British thermal units (quads) of energy, marking a 1% increase from the previous year. Fossil fuels—petroleum, natural gas, and coal—continue to dominate U.S. energy consumption, accounting for 82% of the total, while nonfossil sources such as renewables and nuclear energy make up the remaining 18%. Petroleum remains the most-consumed fuel, maintaining this status for the past 75 years. Notably, natural gas, once considered a waste byproduct, has become a major energy source for heating and electricity generation. Historically, energy use in the U.S. has evolved significantly since 1776. Early energy sources included water-powered mills, though their contribution is not well quantified. Coal surpassed wood as a primary energy source in the 19th century, and natural gas overtook coal in 1958. More recently, renewable energy sources such as wind and

  • Solar News - China Leaps Forward While US Falls Back - CleanTechnica

    The article highlights China's rapid advancement in renewable energy, particularly solar and wind power, contrasting it with the United States' lagging efforts. In May 2025 alone, China installed 93 GW of solar capacity and 26 GW of wind, equating to the energy needs of entire countries like Poland, Indonesia, or Turkey. China now boasts over 1,000 GW of installed solar capacity, nearly half of the global total. This growth is part of a deliberate national strategy to replace coal-fired power plants with renewables, despite China being the world's largest greenhouse gas emitter. The Chinese government fosters a highly competitive market environment where renewable energy companies must succeed without bailouts, leading to significant financial losses for major solar firms but driving industry consolidation and efficiency. In contrast, the U.S. is extending the life of aging coal plants and dismantling plans to phase out coal, undermining its clean energy transition.

  • Renewables as a Bridge to Gas? America's Energy Logic Goes Backwards - CleanTechnica

    The article discusses a controversial statement made by John Ketchum, CEO of NextEra Energy, at the Politico Energy Summit in June 2025, where he suggested that renewables like wind, solar, and storage should be viewed as a temporary "bridge" to expanding natural gas generation. This reverses the long-standing narrative that natural gas is a bridge fuel toward a renewable future. Ketchum’s argument centers on the urgent need for new electricity capacity in the near term, driven by rising demand from AI data centers, electric vehicles, and broader electrification. He emphasized that renewables are currently the only energy sources deployable quickly enough to prevent reliability crises, whereas new gas infrastructure faces significant delays. The delays in gas turbine deployment—often five to seven years—stem from manufacturing backlogs caused by limited production capacity, aging infrastructure, supply chain disruptions, and workforce shortages, rather than surging global demand. This bottleneck is partly a consequence of the market’s long-term shift away from

  • Senate GOP bill spares nuclear and geothermal energy while hammering wind and solar

    Senate Republicans have introduced a budget reconciliation bill that significantly scales back renewable energy incentives established under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), particularly targeting solar, wind, and hydrogen energy. The bill proposes ending residential solar tax credits within 180 days of enactment and disqualifying solar leasing companies from receiving credits, which would severely impact the residential solar market. Commercial wind and solar projects would face a shortened timeline for tax credits, with full credits only available for projects starting within six months of the bill’s signing and phased reductions thereafter, disappearing entirely after 2027. Hydrogen tax credits would also end this year, creating additional challenges for hydrogen startups. In contrast, the bill largely spares geothermal, nuclear, hydropower, and long-duration energy storage technologies, with only slight extensions to their tax credit phase-outs. Carbon capture incentives would be modified to eliminate distinctions based on the use of captured carbon, making all projects eligible for the same credit level. Notably, the inclusion of long-duration energy storage could

  • A Primer About Wind On Global Wind Day - CleanTechnica

    Global Wind Day, observed annually on June 15, aims to raise awareness about wind energy’s role as a clean, renewable, and sustainable power source. Wind is generated by the uneven heating of the Earth’s surface by the sun, causing air to move from high to low pressure areas, creating wind. This natural phenomenon has powered human activity for millennia, from ancient Egyptian sailboats to modern wind turbines that convert kinetic energy into electricity without greenhouse gas emissions, thus supporting the global transition to net-zero carbon emissions. Wind turbines, typically three-bladed and mounted on horizontal axes, vary in size and capacity—from 100 kilowatts to 12 megawatts—and can be installed in diverse environments including land, offshore, and deep waters with floating designs. Key factors influencing electricity production include wind speed, blade radius (with power increasing exponentially as blade size grows), and air density, which depends on altitude, temperature, and pressure. The wind energy sector also presents significant job growth opportunities; for example

  • India's Coal & Gas Decline Signals Accelerating Renewable Energy Transition - CleanTechnica

    The article highlights a significant shift in India’s energy landscape, marked by a steep decline in coal usage as of May 2025—the largest year-over-year drop since the COVID-19 pandemic. This decline is driven by economic slowdowns, rapid expansion of renewables, and increasingly cost-competitive solar and wind projects, signaling a potential tipping point toward decarbonization. Despite coal’s entrenched role in powering India’s industrial sectors and accounting for nearly half of the country’s primary energy input in 2023, its inefficiencies—where about two-thirds of coal’s energy content is lost as waste heat—underscore the urgency for a transition to cleaner, more efficient energy sources. Renewables, while growing, still made up less than a quarter of electricity generation in 2023, reflecting the substantial scaling challenges ahead. Looking toward 2050, the article envisions a fully electrified Indian economy predominantly powered by renewables such as wind, solar, and hydro, with nuclear energy maintained at current levels. This future energy system would leverage the efficiency gains of electrification, particularly through widespread adoption of electric vehicles and heat pumps, which significantly reduce energy demand in transport, residential, and commercial sectors. The strategic use of ambient environmental heat via heat pumps and the integration of geothermal energy could further reduce electricity needs, transforming India’s energy consumption into a highly efficient and sustainable model. This transition offers not only environmental benefits but also economic resilience by addressing inefficiencies and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
