Peak power demand forecasts are constantly being revised First it's 100%, then 300%, every year At @akashnet Accelerate, @jasonbadeaux predicted that AI will only push it further upward

Happy Labor Day A special shoutout goes out to the Sun today. The hardest worker in the solar system, with no days off. Thanks for making our warmth your labor of love

Solar and batteries aren’t the breakthrough. They’re the foundation. Real change needs a system that rewards supply, not just charges for demand

Solar and battery capacity are pumping and the chart is printing green candles Renewable energy is charting an unmistakable trajectory: #UpOnly 🌞🔋📈

Yield-bearing stablecoins are the future of an open financial system, and @PlasmaFDN is building the infrastructure to ensure everyone has permissionless access to saving, spending, sending and earning ❌ Petro dollar ✅ Electricity dollar

Daylight co-founder @jasonbadeaux joined @Proof_Coverage this week for their fourth DePIN Roundtable Tune in to hear him share details about our upcoming product launch 👀

Daylight is lighting up Massachusetts 💡 At @TheBigEFair we heard you loud and clear. Homeowners are tired of sky-rocketing energy bills We’re showing them a better way: decentralized energy, built for abundance, electrons for all

Huntley Fall Fest is about to get brighter 🔆 The Daylight team will be onsite in Illinois this weekend to connect with local homeowners about a new way to power their homes. Stop by our booth on Sat + Sun, 10am-5pm. Admission is free. huntleyfallfest.com/

This week is Climate Week NYC, and the stakes couldn’t be clearer. Electricity demand is surging across every sector, driven by AI, electrification, and reshoring of industrial capacity. The infrastructure we rely on to meet that demand is aging, slow to evolve, and increasingly expensive to maintain. Utility rates are skyrocketing. Outages are more frequent. And even as the cost of generating electricity falls, the cost of delivering it continues to climb. Fossil fuels can’t solve this. They may still dominate the global supply mix, but they’re no longer sustainable economically or environmentally. The transition is inevitable. The only question is whether we build fast enough to keep pace with the demand curve. This is the backdrop to Climate Week NYC. Leaders across the public and private sector are here to grapple with one of the most urgent questions of our time: how do we build an energy system that is cleaner, more resilient, and more equitable than the one we have now? At Daylight, we believe part of the answer lies in the network we haven’t fully tapped yet: our homes. We’re working to make it easier for people to generate, store, and manage energy locally. That includes battery storage, solar, and smart energy software. But the real opportunity is not just in individual upgrades, it’s in connecting them. Building a distributed energy network that can respond to demand, support the grid, and reward participation. This model is being deployed today. And it creates resilience from the bottom up, using infrastructure that already exists. As Climate Week continues, we’re encouraged by the momentum. But we’re also clear-eyed about what it will take. The future of energy won’t be solved by any one actor. It will be built, piece by piece, project by project, through a mix of policy, capital, and collective will. We’re just getting started #ClimateWeekNYC
