NewYork GreenCloud Acquires Buena Vista Biomass Power Facility to Launch First Carbon-Negative AI Factory
NewYork GreenCloud (NYGC) announced the acquisition of the Buena Vista Biomass Power (BVBP) facility in Ione, California. The site will become NYGC’s first large-scale carbon negative AI Factory, integrating biomass-to-pyrolysis energy systems with behind-the-meter, liquid-cooled AI compute. “The Buena Vista Biomass Power facility is the beginning of a national platform … [continued]

Same Length, Different Logic: China’s Industrial Hydrogen Pipeline Versus Germany’s Backbone
The comparison between Germany’s hydrogen backbone from nowhere to nowhere and China’s reported 1,000km-plus hydrogen pipeline keeps resurfacing, often framed as evidence that Germany is simply early rather than wrong. It is a fair question, because at a distance both projects appear similar. Both involve long-distance hydrogen pipelines. Both are … [continued]

How Early Climate Leadership Locked Germany Into The Wrong Hydrogen Bet
Germany’s hydrogen pipeline from nowhere to nowhere did not emerge from ignorance or indifference. It emerged from good intentions formed early, when climate risk was clear and credible solutions were scarce. In the 1990s and early 2000s, jurisdictions that accepted climate science faced a thin menu of options. Wind and … [continued]

Europe Built Hydrogen Infrastructure Instead of the Power Grid It Needed
The most important policy lesson from the 400 km European hydrogen backbone segment with no suppliers and no offtakers—a pipeline from nowhere to nowhere—I wrote about recently is that decarbonization succeeds or fails on demand realism, not technological aspiration. Europe knew, as early as the late 2000s, that deep electrification … [continued]

The Long US Goodbye to New Gas Connections and the Legal Tools States Are Using to Get There
Gas bans in new buildings moved from obscure municipal policy to national legal conflict in a remarkably short period of time. For most of the past decade, city ordinances limiting or prohibiting new natural gas hookups were treated as a local matter tied to building codes, air quality, and long … [continued]
