Power Play: Trump’s Data Center Pledge and the Ratepayer Reckoning - Cozzy Energy Solutions President Trump's pledge to protect electricity ratepayers from rising costs associated with data center development has drawn criticism and fueled community anxieties regarding the administration’s approach to artificial intelligence. During a recent State of the Union address, Trump announced a “ratepayer protection pledge,” instructing major technology companies to “provide for their own power needs” by

US Builders Are Still Pushing The Solar Power Envelope The leading US builder Clayco has added its considerable muscle to the domestic solar power and energy storage business.

Regardless of the sharp U-turn in federal energy policy, solar power is more powerful than ever.

Solar PV: $76.67/watt in 1977. Under $0.30 today. A 99.6% decline.

The forecasters keep underestimating it. Every year the actual cost beats the previous year's projection. Manufacturing learning curve, not policy.
