America is watching the world’s movement to nuclear power generation
ENB Pub Note: This article was originally published on America Out Loud, and we recommend reading and following Ronald Stein! Most California politicians have hated the zero-emissions electricity generated by nuclear power since 1976, when they passed a moratorium on new nuclear power plants. Nuclear is the cleanest, safest, proven, least-emitting fuel of all, and yet most […]

The Bank of England is moving further away from thermal coal. From October 2026, it will no longer accept bonds issued by companies deriving revenue from thermal coal mining as eligible collateral in its lending operations. Commercial banks borrowing from the Bank (including major UK institutions) will not be able to post those bonds. The […]

Data Center Alley Crisis Averted, But Sends A Huge Warning
Hat Tip to NBC4 Washington and the LinkedIn post by Bethany Boo, which highlighted the story. We covered this on the Energy News Beat Substack. Just before 8 a.m. on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, electricity flickered on and off for roughly 10 minutes across a vast stretch of the eastern United States—from Chicago to Boston […]
Over 100°F Heat Adding Stress to the AI-laden Grid
Back-to-back heat waves sweeping the United States are pushing electricity grids to a tipping point, as temperatures topping 100°F (38°C) drive households to max out air conditioners while a surge in around-the-clock demand from AI data centers and factories shrinks power reserves and strains decades-old transmission equipment. This is emerging as the new normal for […]
LNG Supply Crisis Pushes Buyers Toward Coal, Natural Gas, and Oil: Energy Security Takes Center Stage
The ongoing conflict in the Middle East, including disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz and damage to key Qatari LNG infrastructure, has triggered a sharp global LNG supply crunch. This is forcing buyers in Europe and Asia to pivot aggressively toward coal, oil products (such as fuel oil, naphtha, and propane), and alternative natural gas […]
Data Center Growth on Track to Absorb a Fifth of US Power Use by 2035: Nuclear Had Better Be Implemented Before We Get There
The explosive growth of data centers, driven primarily by artificial intelligence, is reshaping America’s electricity landscape. High-end projections now show data centers potentially consuming up to 20% of total U.S. electricity by 2035 in aggressive scenarios—roughly a four- to five-fold increase from today’s ~4-5% share. Even as AI model developers announce efficiency gains, the underlying […]
