Net Zero wanted to shut coal down. Net Zero now extends coal.
Australia’s official grid planner has rewritten the script. The Australian Energy Market Operator’s 2026 Integrated System Plan still describes renewables, storage, transmission and gas backup as the “least-cost” path to 2050. The same documents show coal staying until 2049, wind delivery falling well short of earlier ambition, transmission scaled back after cost blowouts of up […]

A March 2026 Gallup survey found 71 percent of Americans opposed a data center in their area, including 48 percent who were strongly opposed — higher than opposition […]
“Profound Game-Changer”: Musk Launching New Turbine Blade Factory To Solve Shortage Threatening AI Boom
Elon Musk confirmed on August 29 that SpaceX is bringing the hardest part of the gas-turbine supply chain in-house: casting hot-section blades and vanes at a new foundry in Bastrop, Texas. He called the move “a profound game-changer” because those parts—not the rest of the machine—are what now set the pace of new natural-gas generation […]
US gas is winning the AI sprint. China is still winning the power marathon.
The United States has pulled ahead of China in building natural gas plants to feed AI data centers. That is a real, measurable shift. It is also not the whole race. Global Energy Monitor’s mid-2026 update, reported by the Washington Examiner, shows U.S. gas projects under construction at 52 GW after a 76% jump in […]
GE Vernova’s Gas Turbine Backlog Hits 116 GW. What Does This Mean for the AI Market?
Order a heavy-duty gas turbine from GE Vernova today, and it will not arrive until 2031. That production reality, confirmed on the company’s July 22, 2026, earnings call, sits beneath nearly every ambitious AI data-center power plan announced in recent years. GE Vernova closed the second quarter with a combined gas-power equipment backlog and slot-reservation […]
