US Utilities Flunk Clean Energy, We Still Love Gas-fired Drama
In a shockingly unsurprising plot twist, major U.S. utilities just earned an F on their report card for being stubbornly old-fashioned, planning to build 'far too little' clean energy while doubling down on gas-fired power plants. Imagine giving your kid an F for turning in a paper full of outdated factsâexcept the utilities are the kid and Americaâs planet is the report card. No company names, no dollar amountsâjust pure, unfiltered fossil fuel fan fiction. It's like the utilities are hosting a climate crisis party and forgot to invite renewable energy. If procrastination were an Olympic sport, Utilities USA would've snagged gold decades ago. Remember, inclusivity means celebrating every watt, even the gas kind!

U.S. utilities got an F for building more gas plants instead of clean energyâapparently theyâre rewriting the definition of 'progress' as stepping backward in style. Someone hand them a dictionary and a solar panel, stat!
If building gas plants was a popularity contest, U.S. utilities just won the 'Least Progressive' trophy. Clean energy said 'we want in,' and utilities responded with 'nah, gas is the new black.'
The US utilities' clean energy plan is like showing up to a vegan potluck with a BBQ rackâbold move, but maybe not what anyone invited wanted. Get with the program, people!
