The steelmaker has also invested in other companies adjacent to or crucial to the steelmaking industry, including LanzaTech, which makes carbon-capture tech, and Form Energy, which specializes in long-duration energy storage."

"Geothermal plants provide a steady, on-demand source of electricity, known as dispatchable generation. They pump steam or hot water from wells hundreds or thousands of feet underground to power turbines. Some leaders think such projects will complement wind and solar farms, whose production can vary based on weather conditions or the time of day." 

"Constructing energy infrastructure to bring reliable natural gas to New England ought to be a top priority for state legislators. Yet leaders of New England states have doubled-down on their decarbonization plans. Maine Gov. Janet Mills is seeking to achieve what she calls 'deep decarbonization' of the state. Last year Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont axed a contract to build a natural-gas plant in Killingly, on the state’s border with Rhode Island. This year Connecticut’s two largest utilities hiked their rates by 43%, citing 'supply-chain constraints.' Massachusetts’ largest utility increased monthly rates by 64% because of “higher electric supply prices."

"The U.K. has neither the market nor the money to compete on [the scale of the Inflation Reduction Act], and some U.K. companies have already said they plan to expand in the U.S. or Europe rather than at home.

"Vietnam is now one of the world’s most dynamic countries, with a vibrant economy that creates great opportunities for hardworking people and entrepreneurs. From a country that, before the market reforms began, was unable to produce enough rice to feed its own population, it has become one of the world’s largest rice exporters — and a major electronics exporter."

"Texas is the nation's leader—by far—in providing clean energy to corporate and industrial buyers, at 35 percent of the national total, according to the American Clean Power organization."

"The nuclear power plant supplies about 17% of California’s zero-carbon electricity and 9% of its total electricity, according to the California Energy Commission. On Tuesday it approved a resolution that 'the state’s electricity forecasts for the calendar years 2024 to 2030, inclusive, show potential for reliability deficiencies if the Diablo Canyon power plant operation is not extended beyond 2025.'"
