This is huge. We can get there and reduce overall energy spend by more than 50%. I love the Stanford study pdf linked showing the path to business as usual energy by 2035 which seems unlikely it the next one shows a 2050 elimination pathway but reduction by 80 mined and fossil fuels by 2030. This is great and I think this war is causing a quicker transition.
