Trump vs Musk, TX SB-6 - ERCOT, Revisiting Nuke Costs | 25.06.07 BDE
Manage episode 487770340 series 3360761
Things are heating up in the world of Trump vs. Musk, as the two giants clash over EV incentives and oil and gas subsidies, do they even exist? Over in Texas, SB-6 is set to give ERCOT the power to pull the plug on massive data centers, cutting down on residential blackouts and shifting some grid responsibility onto developers. But what does that mean for backup power economics? And then there’s nuclear energy, why’s it costing us so much more than countries like France and India? As always, we’re breaking down the latest in policy, politics, and everything in between, with plenty of news, stats, and a little bit of BDE flair.
