“There is essentially unlimited capital right now that's trying to get into ESG. It's amazing. It's a wonderful thing to see. So much capital from all around the world is trying to pour into renewable energy.”

“One of the key enabling insights for me is really seeing the LCOE calculations for renewable energy which is levelized cost of electricity. One of the biggest levers is actually the cost of capital.”

“Like there's going to be a lot of energy use and like no one's life cycle pencils without renewable energy use.”

“And we did meet that goal of a hundred percent renewable What I think is even. In 2017, exactly.”

“Kenya's grid is actually about 75% installed capacity is renewable right now, and about 90% of the energy they produce is renewable. A lot of that is because of the focus on geothermal.”

“There is probably a recent report you probably saw that 209 out of the 210 coal plants that are operating currently in the U.S. Would be cheaper to shut them down and just invest in the capital cost of building renewable energy to replace them.”

“Yeah, we might have a terawatt year this decade. It's not crazy.”

“When you look at the capital cost per kilowatt of nuclear with everything that is known today, it's much more expensive than even highly curtailed renewables.”

“1.5 terawatts is the total amount of renewable energy capacity that will need to be deployed on an annual basis to maintain the sustainable energy economy. And that's basically keeping up with plant retirements. So on a steady state basis, 1.5 terawatts is how…”

“And at least, you know, in Massachusetts, for example, you know, we passed a permitting reform law in, in the last year that really cut down the time in which renewable energy projects could be permitted pretty substantially, you know, deadlines within a year,…”
