Really good stuff! My favorite quote:

“But even better, I had indoctrinated them with the idea that a tiny number of foundational technologies are the core to solving climate change, this electrifying energy transition thing I'm always harping on about.”

Surely with abudant renewable energy, the price per kWh must shrink to a pittance above the cost of transmission? Will the energy retailers bump up their daily connection fees to counter this? Should they be allowed to do this? IMHO energy, communication and water supply utilities should all be public assets - there is little room for real competition whwen there is only one channel for supply. Sources eg generation, could be privately owned to a small degree

My team will be in nyc working on making batteries safer either by using less lithium or combining with materials such as amphiphulic block co polymers that my father-in-law (RIP) invented (Dr. Adi Eisenberg).
