Trump’s Aug. 26 executive order seeks to prevent certain foreign-made batteries, transformers, inverters and related digital products from connecting to the U.S. power grid after its Aug. 26 effective date.
It also gives Energy Secretary Chris Wright discretion to impose conditions on “the continued use, operation, maintenance, servicing, or updating” of equipment procured or installed before Aug. 26.

We Are Not Mining with Renewable Energy
…and when we do, shit's going to get real
There are no “renewables” without mining, an unsustainable practice turbocharged by the burning of fossil fuels. Yet, advocates of green technologies still believe that we could “somehow” electrify the recovery of critical minerals, and continue with civilization in a “business as usual but greener” manner. In reality, this could not be further from the truth.

But. But. But. But. Didn’t the US Republicans tell us that going solar would be too complicated and also too unreliable to use? Look how fast a country went from 1% adoption to 20%! And I noticed that tariffs play a part in decisions to do things differently. Hmmmm. #Solar #SolarPower #Electricity #ElectricalGrid

"Data centers must coöperate with local electric utilities to manage these training runs. The water coursing above CoreWeave’s microchips enters at room temperature but leaves warmer than a hot bath. It is cooled in a storage tank before being recycled into the system. The temperature, humidity, and particulate count of the air inside the room are also carefully monitored. “Condensation is our enemy,” Conley said, gravely.
All these microchips, all this electricity, all these fans, all this money, all these data, all these water-cooling pumps and cables—all of it is there to tune the weights, this little file of numbers, which is small enough to fit on an external hard drive. A great deal depends on this well-tempered collection of synthetic neurons. The money spent to develop it, and others like it, represents one of the largest deployments of capital in human history.When the finished product is ready, clones of the weights are distributed to data centers around the country, where they can be accessed through the internet, a process known as “inference.” Users ask questions, prompting the A.I. to produce individual units of intelligence called “tokens.” A token might be a small square of pixels or a fragment of a word. To write a college term paper, an A.I. might produce about five thousand tokens, consuming enough electricity to run a microwave oven at full power for about three minutes. As A.I. fields increasingly complex requests—for video, for audio, for therapy—the need for computing power will increase many times over."

The US #Grid #Attack Looming on the Horizon
A major #cyberattack on the US #electricalGrid has long worried #security experts. Such an attack wouldn’t be easy. But if an adversary pulled it off, it’d be lights out in more ways than one.

Did ‘induced atmospheric vibration’ cause blackouts in #Europe? An #electrical engineer explains the phenomenon
#Portugal’s grid operator #REN was quoted as blaming the event on a rare phenomenon known as “induced #atmospheric #vibration”. REN has since reportedly refuted this.
But what is this vibration? And how can #energy systems be improved to mitigate the risk of widespread blackouts?

Somebody with decent chops has produced some excellent digests of events leading to similar, on Wikipedia. ( went down this rabbit hole quite recently)

I saw something celebratory go by about Spain managing a day powered totally by renewable energy sources recently, and yet today they've been hit by a blackout.
This highlights how, while renewable energy is an excellent step forward, a transition towards networks of microgrids is an important step the world needs to embrace for more resilient, robust and adaptable operation.
