PJM Addressing Rising Demand and Constrained Supply

May 11, 2026 Clark Savage806

PJM Interconnection, the nation’s largest regional transmission organization, is confronting a historic shift from electricity surplus to structural scarcity. A new special report released by PJM on May 6, 2026, titled Powering Reliability Through Market Design, details how unprecedented demand growth—fueled largely by hyperscale data centers and AI infrastructure—combined with accelerated retirements of dispatchable generation […]

Energy Realities Round Table Discussion – Critical Energy Issues

May 11, 2026 Clark Savage411

One thing you can say about this energy news cycle is that there is no shortage of topics, so the Energy Realities Team of David Blackmon, Irina Slav, Dr. Tammy Nemeth, and Stu Turley is bringing the biggest news stories of the week to help get your week rolling. We had way too much fun […]

Levelised Cost of Energy Models Are Junk – And Subsidies are driving the prices of Energy Up

May 3, 2026 Clark Savage393

David Turver, an Energy Analyst from the UK, stops by the Energy News Beat Podcast. With the spotlight on the world stage around the price of oil, the world is bifurcating into two camps. Those going after Energy Security Starts at home, and the other camp is tripling down on Green Energy and Deindustrialization. I […]

GE Vernova Challenges Vineyard Wind’s Claims of Harm

May 2, 2026May 2, 2026 Clark Savage747

GE Vernova, the turbine supplier for the nation’s first utility-scale offshore wind project, is pushing back hard against Vineyard Wind’s assertions that its departure would cause “irreparable harm.” In an emergency motion filed this week in Suffolk County Superior Court, GE Vernova argues that the recent activation of the project’s long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) […]

The Energy Transition Replacement Treadmill is Unsustainable

April 30, 2026April 30, 2026 Clark Savage435

For two decades, governments, corporations, and activists have poured trillions into wind, solar, batteries, and hydrogen as the path to a “clean” energy future. The result? According to U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright, the world has spent roughly $10 trillion—yet wind and solar deliver only about 3% of global primary energy consumption. And nobody is […]

California Refineries Max Out Jet Fuel Slashing Gasoline Production

April 30, 2026April 30, 2026 Clark Savage819

California’s fuel markets are in crisis. Refineries across the state are running flat-out on jet fuel and diesel to chase record-high margins, while gasoline output is being deliberately cut — even as pump prices surge toward all-time highs near $6 per gallon. The shift comes at the worst possible moment: two major refinery closures have […]

UK Wind Falls to 0.6 GW Over Weekend

April 29, 2026April 29, 2026 Clark Savage323

The United Kingdom’s vaunted renewable energy fleet delivered a stark reality check over the recent weekend. Despite boasting approximately 32 GW of installed wind capacity—onshore and offshore combined—actual output plummeted to just 0.6 GW, less than 2% of nameplate capacity. This collapse occurred overnight, when solar generation was zero, leaving Britain functionally reliant on dispatchable […]

‘Green energy’ is bringing back the atrocities of ‘blood diamonds’

April 27, 2026April 27, 2026 Clark Savage299

ENB Pub Note: This article was first run on America Outloud by Ronald Stein, and we recommend signing up for his newsletter and reading America Outloud. Executive Orders in the United States are moving the country away from electric vehicles (EVs) and wind and solar electricity systems. Executive Orders issued by President Trump on January 20, […]

Ireland Doubles Down on Energy Dependency by Boosting Interconnections with Spain and UK

April 27, 2026April 27, 2026 Clark Savage409

Ireland has taken another step toward deeper integration with its European neighbors’ electricity grids, signing memorandums of understanding (MoUs) with Spain and the UK to expand interconnection capacity. While officials frame these deals as advances in “energy security” and renewable integration, a closer look at the data reveals a different story: Ireland is doubling down […]

Time to Reconsider New York and California’s Climate Alarm Bills and Laws

April 24, 2026 Clark Savage465

New York and California have long positioned themselves as national leaders—some might say the “gold standard”—in aggressive climate legislation. Laws like New York’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (CLCPA, 2019) and California’s AB 32 (2006), SB 32 (2016), and SB 100 (2018) set ambitious targets for greenhouse gas reductions, renewable energy mandates, and electrification. […]
