Editorialized title to make it fit.
Solar power is def shaking up the energy landscape, with plummeting panel costs making it a real contender against fossil fuels and disrupting energy markets and grid dynamics. Will that hold with TRUMPian global economics remains to be seen. The article also points to challenges like storage and integration, but what’s interesting is the mention of direct air capture (DAC) as a potential game-changer. While evidence from others about the feasibility of DAC is slim, if the lofty claims hold up, it could reshape renewables and open up big investment opportunities.
Curious on HN's take—is this just Hyperloop tech-bro hype, or is there something worth betting on here?
Terraform Industries is a bunch of dreamers with utterly unrealistic numbers.
Capex-light power-to-gas technology would indeed be a breakthrough; judging by their considerable output on X, they ain't going to be the ones to make that breakthrough.

Solar analyst Jenny Chase was recently scathing of this particular person/company on social media:
