That’s precisely why this matters. If the U.S. wants to stay competitive over the long term, we need disciplined investment across frontier lanes where leadership is earned through technical depth, not hype.
Credit to Conner and the ARPA‑E team for framing ambition with rigor.
ARPA‑E’s $135M investment in fusion shouldn’t be read as a claim of inevitability. Fusion remains one of the hardest challenges in energy, with major scientific, technological, and engineering gaps ahead.
Was sorry to miss the ARPA‑E Summit this year, but exciting to see Director Conner Prochaska making real news on stage at one of the most important annual meetings in U.S. energy innovation www.latitudemedia.com/news/arpa-e-...
The energy transition doesn’t survive on policy tailwinds alone. It succeeds through cost, reliability, and scale.
Quoted in today’s NYT on why industrial electrification keeps moving forward anyway.

So is this where we come to post “twitter down?”
It was great to host @alisontakemura.bsky.social at AtmosZero’s manufacturing facility to show @canarymedia.com’s readership what truly makes for a scalable industrial steam electrification solution.
The MOF Nobel has big Obama peace prize energy.
“Policy must stop rewarding one-off waste-heat projects and start incentivizing scalable electrification technologies.”
The energy transition demands speed. Let’s build frameworks that reward solutions that scale.

Waste heat isn’t “free.” Capturing, moving, and upgrading it adds cost and complexity—making every project custom. That kills scalability.
We need air-sourced, factory-built heat pumps: modular, repeatable, and fast to deploy.
My new commentary in Joule dives into why:
“Industrial heat pumps won’t scale if they remain tethered to bespoke waste-heat projects. Standardization is the only path to rapid deployment.”

Industrial heat pumps are critical for electrifying industry—but decades of chasing waste heat have kept them stuck in bespoke, non-scalable projects.
It’s time to rethink the path forward. 🧵👇

Honored to write for ASME on how the legacy of the steam boiler helped inspire Boiler 2.0 and AtmosZero’s mission.
Thanks to Louise Poirier, @jeffreywinters.bsky.social for their editorial support & the invitation.

Another day of boring 24/7 boiler operation at a customer site.
It ain’t much, but it’s honest work.

Steam powers much of the modern world—but it’s largely missing from climate conversations. I joined @catalyst-pod.bsky.social to unpack the role of steam in industry, the challenges of electrifying it, and why it’s finally getting attention.

AtmosZero's @addisonkstark.bsky.social weighs in on Trump's tariffs in @technologyreview.com, arguing that raising costs and rankling our trade partners isn't the way to drive the energy sector forward.
Decided to throw in on the tariff discourse with an energy dominance twist.
Was great working with @jtemple.bsky.social and the @technologyreview.com editorial team.
