Today, atmospheric CO2 concentration is 424.18 ppm or 0.04%. It seems like a small number, but CO2 is the only gas in the atmosphere that traps heat. The rest, 99.96% of the atmosphere, has nothing to do with the Earth's greenhouse effect.
Our campaign has closed on Thursday, at midnight Pacific Time. We are saying goodbye to StartEngine and hello to the future of power. It was great to be on StartEngine, sharing our story and raising funds, but over the following months we need to focus on delivering the Gen-3 PowerBloc and responding to the great interest in it.
ChatGPT may be smarter than you and me, but it burns through enormous amounts of electricity to produce its answers. Data centers and artificial intelligence are putting gigantic new loads on the grid. The resurgence of manufacturing will also require enormous amounts of electricity.
Customers use the PowerBloc in many different ways. Our newest customer in Upstate New York bought a PowerBloc to give a family farm, a homestead in Slingerlands, a legacy and a future.
Lithium-ion battery prices fell again by 20% this year, according to the leading cleantech research film, Canary Media.
Historically, electricity consumption in the United States has grown with the gross domestic product (GDP). This makes sense: The wealthier Americans became, the more stuff they bought, and more energy was needed to make the stuff.
Last week, YouSolar CEO Arnold Leitner was the opening presenter at an energy innovation event hosted at the Plug-and-Play Center in Silicon Valley. During his presentation, Arnold introduced the PowerBloc® and shared our vision that independent power systems like the YouSolar PowerBloc, and not fusion or mini-nukes, will shape the future of power. YouSolar and the other speakers saw the emergence of a radically different electricity system than today’s.
YouSolar sold a PowerBloc BASE™ today to CHESS Energy Solutions LLC in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. CHESS is the brilliant acronym for a Combined Heat and Electricity Storage System.
Tomorrow, America votes. All over the newsrooms, pundits will tap and swipe the latest results of the U.S. presidential election on the “magic walls.” Meanwhile, Spain is cleaning up and struggling to decide when, where, how, or if to rebuild its infrastructure after the biggest flood in decades–or even its history.
In the past year, estimates from U.S. utilities and grid operators of how much electricity demand will grow over the next five years have nearly doubled, jumping from 2.6 per cent to 4.7 per cent, according to Grid Strategies’ analysis.” writes Canary Media, an independent, nonprofit newsroom covering the transition to clean energy and solutions to the climate crisis.
