Electrification

“And so when you stack that all up and you replace that with a renewable electrified pathway, you can get almost a tripling of end use efficiency, well, sort of well to wheel or primary energy to end use efficiency boost, which actually is the, One of the first…”

“I think it is undeniably gumming up the works right now, if you are trying to accelerate electrification of other stuff as quickly as you possibly can, particularly industrial stuff.”

“The world is not in technical terms, a state function, meaning in a state function, if something should exist, it becomes that just because the world should be electric does not make it electric. The world is a path function. I mean, I think about like an alte…”

“So I think longer term, we have to do something like that because the high rates disincentivize the switch to electrification, which is what we all want is what we need for our energy policy.”

“Hydrogen-powered cars and trucks? Forget about it. That's been clear for a decade. That's not going to be cost-competitive electrification.”

“About 50 to 70% of all the heat used in the industrial sector right now could be electrified with commercially available technologies.”

“When we're talking about getting things, you know, across oceans, right, something from Shanghai to LA, then we need to talk about decarbonization a little bit differently, because doing that through electrification is just not possible right now. And based up…”

“What I've really come to believe in is that electrification, yes, hypothetically could get us all the way there. That strategy could get us all the way there, but it's a risky strategy from the standpoint of total costs particularly total costs to consumers wh…”

“What you find in almost every use case, and I would say in particular Again, in the distributed use cases like building heating is that, you know, maybe the first, you know, the first 50% of gas demand that you soak up with electrification is relatively easy. …”

“But by our analysis, you know, it's really a market for commuter flights, and for flights of, you know, 300 kilometers or less for the foreseeable future, just because of the underlying mass penalties of the technology.”

“So the transition towards electrification is a really easy one. It's a mathematical equation, but one that requires knowledge and nuance. What are the ways to optimize your Power expenses. How is it more valuable to site your charging station on this side of t…”
