The renewables revolution is forcing the energy industry to evolve. Change brings opportunity, and bold players stand to make significant revenue gains by wading into this new world.
Overlooking nuclear energy as part of America’s clean energy strategy would be tantamount to unilateral disarmament.
Clean, green and reliable — these should be the core elements of our nation’s energy policy in the 21st century and beyond. Accepting any lesser criteria will hinder our efforts to reduce carbon pollution and provide clean air for all Americans to breathe. That’s why we cannot afford to lose the most important tool in our clean energy arsenal: carbon-free nuclear energy.In the coming decades we will start to think of data and software as a source of energy.
What do I mean by that? Software won’t generate electrons, but it will let us leverage the electricity we are already generating in a more efficient and productive way.
Clean tech is increasingly about IT-enabled distributed and fully integrated energy systems that have the potential to transform lives around the world — as well as the prosperity and productivity of countries across the globe.
“Climate finance” entails applying the power of private-sector finance to scaling up low-carbon solutions. Its stock is rising now because the world needs to unleash massive flows of private capital in order to mitigate its carbon problem.
