  1. Living in the fossill fuel industy's wet dream sucks.

    "When fully executed, Solar for All was poised to deliver solar power to 900,000 households nationwide, many of them in rural and underserved areas, according to estimates from the Biden administration. Those homes were expected to save a collective $350 million in utility costs annually, with some families pocketing more than $1,000 each year."

  2. How the One Big Beautiful Bill Act Changed America’s Clean Energy Policy

    "The summary takes each clean energy-related provision in the U.S. tax code and summarizes how (and whether) it existed in the 2000s and 2010s, how the Inflation Reduction Act changed it, and how the new OBBBA will change it again."

    ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ will have Americans paying higher prices for dirtier energy theconversation.com/big-beauti

    It accelerates the phaseout of tax credits for factories that manufacture equipment needed for renewable energy and electric vehicles. That would disrupt the boom in domestic manufacturing projects that had been stimulated by the Inflation Reduction Act.

  4. Weekly output: Android and Wear OS updates, Gmail’s Manage Subscriptions tool, Grok coming to Teslas, clean-energy rebates and tax credits

    This week saw the return of one of Washington’s most treasured rites of summer: the free outdoor concerts at Fort Reno Park in Tenleytown. Unfortunately, I let myself get spooked by the weather forecast for Monday’s show and then had a schedule conflict for Thursday’s show–and now I see that the forecast calls for rain tomorrow evening.

    7/9/2025: Google Unpacks Another Round of AI Features, Starting With Gemini On Wear OS, PCMag

    SamsI contributed a tiny bit of PCMag’s coverage of Samsung’s latest Unpacked product-announcement event with this writeup of some new features Google announced for some of Samsung’s new hardware.

    7/9/2025: Gmail’s New ‘Manage Subscriptions’ Feature Is Here, But It Doesn’t Go Far Enough, PCMag

    If I had written about this new Gmail feature only from Google’s announcement of it, this might have been a much more positive piece. But what they rolled out doesn’t come close to helping Gmail users cope with their overflowing inboxes.

    7/10/2025: After Elon Musk Says Grok Is Coming to Teslas, the Jokes Drive Themselves, PCMag

    Writing this short post took longer than I expected because it represented my belated introduction to the content-embedding feature in PCMag’s CMS.

    7/11/2025: Interested in Clean-Energy Tax Credits? The Clock Is Ticking Thanks to Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’, PCMag

    Researching this piece felt like doing my taxes, with the added annoyance factor of my knowing that we were never eligible for some of the Inflation Reduction Act’s incentives anyway.

  5. The #Senate also changed language about which #solar & #wind projects can use the 2022 #InflationReductionAct’s #TaxCredits.

    In the Senate's final version, projects will be able to use the lucrative credits if they begin construction before 2026.

    A previous version was based on when the projects enter service.

  6. Ein Besuch in New York wird für Klimaforscher Jochem Marotzke zum surrealen Erlebnis: Während draußen das Leben pulsiert, herrscht im renommierten Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) Endzeitstimmung. Die Trump-Regierung hat das Institut faktisch geschlossen – ein symbolträchtiger Angriff auf die Klimaforschung. Doch die Folgen reichen weit über die Wissenschaft hinaus: Wenn Forschung unterdrückt wird, verlieren Bürger den Zugang zu verlässlichen Informationen über Wetterextreme, Gesundheitsrisiken und Umweltveränderungen. Frühwarnsysteme, Katastrophenschutz und nachhaltige Technologien geraten ins Hintertreffen. Die Klimakrise trifft alle – doch ohne Forschung fehlt die Grundlage für Schutz und Anpassung.

  7. POSCO Future M Co. has completed its Gwangyang precursor plant, enabling in-house production of key battery materials and strengthening supply chain resilience amid global policy shifts, particularly as U.S. IRA rules restrict Chinese-sourced inputs.

  8. Hyundai Motor Group has ramped up its US lobbying efforts, investing over $1.3 million in Q1 2025 to address regulatory risks from the IRA, tariffs, and new tech rules, as it accelerates its North American EV strategy and highlights local investments.

  9. The near-total repeal of the #InflationReductionAct, as passed by the US House, would increase USA carbon emissions by 150 MtCO2eq/year by 2030 (for power generation alone) and 1 Gt/y by 2035. (While also increasing costs nearly everywhere.)

  10. Which states will lose the most jobs if the #InflationReductionAct is repealed? Hint: Lots of red states have plenty of jobs coming their way because of #ElectricVehicles, nearly all because of IRA incentives. #Republicans screwing their own voters yet again. electrek.co/2025/05/13/15-stat

  11. The problem for #Republicans is that it is increasingly clear that some #GOP senators simply do not have the appetite for the kinds of deep cuts that their counterparts in the House are agitating for. In recent days they have expressed concerns about repealing the entirety of President Joe #Biden’s #InflationReductionAct & restricting access to #FoodStamps.

    But no issue has drawn quite so much resistance as the prospect of cuts to #Medicaid.

  12. "The #USDA oversees 20 conservation programs that are funded through the Farm Bill. Under the Biden administration these programs got a huge boost: $19.5 billion from the #InflationReductionAct, Biden’s signature climate legislation.

    But amid the Trump administration’s broader attacks on climate action, most of the unspent dollars remain frozen, despite the popularity of these programs and their benefits beyond addressing #ClimateChange."

  13. “There is simply no physical way that wind, solar and batteries could replace the myriad uses of natural gas,”

  14. "A full repeal of the #InflationReductionAct this year could cause significant damage to the US economy, triggering nearly 790,000 #job losses in 2030 and reducing #GDP by more than $160 billion, modeling published Thursday suggested.

    Republican-controlled states — Texas, Georgia, Florida, and Pennsylvania — stand out as the biggest losers."
