Long before reaching a store shelf or factory floor, most of the things we rely on every day begin their lives far upstream. The phone in your pocket, the clothes you wear, the medicines in your cabinet, the fertilizer that grows food, even the foam and fabrics in the seat beneath you all trace their […]

The island of Ta’ū, home to roughly 600 people spread across three villages in American Samoa, had for generations depended on supply ships for nearly everything, including the drums of diesel that kept […]

A common narrative in the energy transition is that the grid (power lines, substations, and vast transmission and distribution networks) will ultimately determine how fast we can scale new generation. Policymakers, utilities, and analysts point to massive interconnection queues, chronic congestion, and the need for trillions in new infrastructure as evidence that the system is […]

The power sector is in the middle of the largest investment cycle it has seen in decades. Utilities across North America are preparing to spend hundreds of billions, and potentially more than a trillion dollars, on new infrastructure including transmission lines, substations, power generators, and grid modernization.

If someone were to ask you what the most valuable element on earth is today, you might be inclined to say gold. It has dominated headlines in recent months, reaffirming its reputation as the ultimate “safe haven” asset in a geopolitically unstable world.
