Today’s deep dive looks at one of the most disruptive - and misunderstood - ideas in energy.
For decades, planners assumed that renewable power could only replace fossil fuels if it was perfectly balanced with vast amounts of storage. But as solar and wind costs have collapsed, a new paradigm is emerging: deliberately building more capacity than we ‘need’ may actually be the cheapest, fastest, and most reliable path to a 100% clean grid.

Great article as always. Also, this is not in the text, but what is happening in Pakistan right now with renewables would be a great model of grassroot renewables that we should follow? What could be improved there? And non related, is there any RSS feed link for paid subscribers? Thanks
Hello Emilio. Allan here, the guy who takes care of the AoT website itself as well as this forum. You’ll be happy to hear that Ghost, the platform that AoT uses, is working on integrating private RSS feeds for members into the platform in the very near future. Could very well be in the next few days, but no promises.
All you’ll need to do is open your account settings via clicking on your avatar in the top right on any AoT page, then access to your personal members-only RSS feed will be displayed somewhere in that Portal window.
If you’d like I’ll drop you a line here once the functionality is released.
