In 2008, Fluence installed one of the first lithium-ion battery systems ever connected to the U.S. grid. Back then, the idea of a domestic battery supply chain felt distant—almost theoretical. Today, it's real.John Zahurancik, now President of Fluence Americas, has spent nearly two decades pushing the storage industry from “interesting pilot projects” to critical grid infrastructure. The last time he was on SunCast, he said domestic content would happen. This year, Fluence started shipping it.In this episode, John breaks down how storage has quietly become the backbone of the power system—independent of renewables—and why the next wave of deployments will be bigger, faster, and more strategically important than anything we've seen.We dig into:
Tired of wrestling with outlets and extension cords just to vacuum a pool? We dig into the new battery that turns the VacDaddy's 55 GPM suction into a truly portable solution and lay out exactly where this tool shines: routine service, storm cleanups, shallow features, and green pool recoveries. Without sacrificing power, the battery removes the biggest friction point—finding a plug—while keeping what pros already love: bag-based debris capture that keeps fine dirt out of the customer's filter system.We break down real-world specs that matter on a route: roughly 15 pounds, about three hours to charge, and close to two hours of runtime at full power thanks to safer ternary lithium chemistry. That swap also streamlines the loadout by replacing heavier transformers, making weight nearly apples to apples and the workflow simpler. Then we go deeper into the VacDaddy's modular design. The vacuum-to-waste adapter turns the unit into a focused cleanup pump in minutes, ideal for post-windstorm debris or settling after an algae treatment. A shallow water adapter unlocks fountains and water features by letting you submerge the unit and vacuum with a short hose and manual head.Along the way, we set honest expectations about filtration and performance. With felt bags around 75 microns and optional 200-micron bags, the VacDaddy handles leaves and typical dirt well, while ultra-fine dust is best managed with vacuum-to-waste. We also talk through who gets the most value: managers equipping employees for consistency, techs dealing with weak filtration systems, and pros who want one tool to cover manual vacs, targeted waste removal, and feature work. Add a few forward-looking ideas—like a compact cart to carry battery, unit, and hoses—and you've got a kit that can replace multiple devices on the truck.If you're ready to make your route faster and more flexible, give this breakdown a listen, share it with your team, and tell us where a portable 55 GPM vac would save you the most time.

#320Today on the Clean Power Hour, Brandon Wagoner, Vice President of Strategy at Middle Tennessee Electric, explains how the second largest cooperative in America manages explosive EV adoption, deploys 32 megawatts of battery storage, and builds 113 megawatts of solar arrays while keeping rates low. His secret weapon: load factor optimization.Middle Tennessee Electric (MTE) serves 350,000 meters south and east of Nashville and leads Tennessee utilities in electric vehicle adoption. As the largest co-op in the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) service territory, MTE operates through strategic partnerships rather than vertical integration, working directly with TVA to solve generation and distribution challenges together.Key Discussion Points:• Load factor optimization as the primary metric for grid infrastructure decisions and rate management• 32 megawatts of two-hour battery storage deployment scheduled for Q1 2026 across their service territory• 3.25 MW tracking solar array operational, with 110 MW TVA solar project launching in 2028• Night Flex rate program incentivizing EV charging during six six-hour overnight windows• Community solar programs serving renters and members without rooftop installation options• Pro Solar advisory team provides trusted third-party guidance for members evaluating solar developers• Strategic approach to serving diverse demographics from high-income first adopters to conservative rural members• Co-op structure enables focus on member service rather than shareholder profits• Partnership model with TVA replaces traditional utility customer relationship• Programmatic rebates, including $50 EV charger installation incentivesConnect with Brandon WagonerWebsite: https://mte.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/midtnelectric/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-brandon-wagoner-pe-2822146/ Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

Ilika CEO Graeme Purdy joined Steve Darling from Proactive to deliver a trading update for the six months ended 31 October, outlining significant operational progress across the company's Stereax and Goliath solid-state battery platforms. The update comes ahead of Ilika's full interim results, scheduled for release in January. Purdy reported that the Stereax M300 micro-battery production line—now operated at Cirtec Medical's facility in Massachusetts—has successfully completed process qualification, a major milestone that clears the path toward commercial output. With this achievement in place, Ilika is targeting initial deliveries to lead customers in Q4 2025, marking the first commercial rollout of the next-generation M300 product. On the large-format battery side, Ilika confirmed that customer testing has validated its Goliath 2Ah P1 cells, demonstrating performance that aligns with expectations for early-stage prototypes. The company remains on track to ship 10Ah Goliath prototypes in December, with 50Ah prototypes to follow based on market demand. Financially, Purdy noted that Ilika expects revenue of £0.6 million for the period, largely reflecting activity associated with the DRIVE35 automotive programme. The company anticipates an EBITDA loss of £3.2 million, which Purdy attributed to increased development expenses and prototype manufacturing costs as Ilika accelerates its transition toward commercialisation. Overall, the company said it remains encouraged by customer engagement and the ongoing validation of its solid-state battery technologies, positioning Ilika for meaningful technical and commercial milestones in 2026 and beyond. #proactiveinvestors #ilika #aim #ika #goliathautomatedline #SolidStateBatteries #Stereax #GoliathBattery #BatteryTech #GraemePurdy #EVBatteries #EnergyStorage #CirtecMedical #JaguarLandRover #UniversityOfOxford #ProactiveInvestors
Have you been feeling sluggish, foggy, or simply not firing on all cylinders lately? You are certainly not alone. In this episode, we explore why so many people are running on low power despite doing “all the right things”. Modern living quietly drains the body's natural spark, and most of us never realise how deeply this affects our clarity, motivation, and everyday wellbeing.We take a grounded look at the principles of Electromagnetic Nutrition™, a framework that treats the human body as a living electrical ecosystem. Instead of hunting for the next magic bullet or complicated formula, this approach focuses on the foundations that keep our internal circuitry flowing. Minerals, healthy fats, and whole foods play essential roles in supporting the body's natural electrical gradients, helping us maintain stable energy, calmer moods, and clearer thinking.We also dive into how stress, constant screen time, late nights, rushed meals, and sedentary routines gradually weaken the body's nutritional and energetic balance. These small daily habits add up, creating what many people recognise as the “low charge state” where they are not unwell, but certainly not at their best.This episode explores why traditional naturopathic wisdom is often far more powerful than people realise. While many chase complex solutions, it is often the simple, foundational principles that make the biggest difference. We discuss how these ideas connect with the broader understanding of cellular adaptation, including concepts such as Henrik Kramer's sixteen stages of cellular change, which highlight the relationship between biochemistry, energetics, structure, and the body's ability to organise itself.If you have been feeling tired, tense, foggy, or disconnected, this conversation will help you understand what your body may be trying to tell you. You will learn how to recognise the signs of an undercharged system and how to begin restoring balance in a practical, accessible way that fits real life.Tune in to explore how you can reconnect with your natural flow, support your internal circuitry and begin feeling more energised, more centred and more yourself again.

Today is Friday, November 14th and Happy Birthday to Alec John Such I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal GHC has highest enrollment growth among state colleges Cobb Sheriff’s Lt. Col. Dewayne Morris laid to rest after lifetime of public service Cobb’s proposed stormwater fee receives mild criticism Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on pesticides All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: MATCH MAGIC GIVEATHON STORY 1: GHC has highest enrollment growth among state colleges Georgia Highlands College is on a roll. Over the past three years, enrollment has jumped 23%, now nearing 6,000 students—a record-breaking pace that’s earned GHC top honors from the USG Board of Regents for the fastest growth among state colleges. “This growth shows how deeply connected we are to the communities we serve,” said President Mike Hobbs. “As Northwest Georgia grows, we’re here to prepare graduates for meaningful careers and help businesses thrive.” Statewide, the University System of Georgia hit an all-time high this fall with 382,142 students, driven by a surge in in-state enrollment. Ready to join? Apply by January at apply.highlands.edu. STORY 2: Cobb Sheriff’s Lt. Col. Dewayne Morris laid to rest after lifetime of public service Dewayne Morris, a man who lived and breathed public service, was laid to rest Tuesday after passing on Nov. 7 at the age of 63. A lieutenant colonel with the Cobb Sheriff’s Office and a retired sergeant from Cobb County Police, Morris dedicated his life to law enforcement. From his early days at Powder Springs PD to his decades with Cobb Police—where he earned two Meritorious Service medals—he was known for his leadership, grit, and heart. But Dewayne wasn’t just a cop. He loved fast cars, Diet Mountain Dew, Little Debbies, and cheering for the Braves and Hawks. He never met a stranger. A true hero. STORY 3: Cobb’s proposed stormwater fee receives mild criticism Cobb County’s proposed $4.75 monthly stormwater fee is back on the table, but this time, the backlash is quieter—at least for now. Last year, the idea sparked packed meetings and fiery opposition. This week? A handful of speakers, mostly supportive or cautiously critical. The fee would nearly double the stormwater budget, funding overdue repairs, new equipment, and even regional detention projects. Homeowners would pay $4.75 a month, while businesses, churches, and schools would be charged based on impervious surfaces. Critics still call it a “tax,” and some HOAs argue they’re being double-billed. A final vote is set for Nov. 20. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: STRAND THEATRE STORY 4: Peer-led mental health center coming to Marietta’s First Presbyterian A new drop-in mental health center is set to open at First Presbyterian Church near Marietta Square, offering something rare: a space for connection, not just treatment. Run by NAMI Cobb, the center will focus on peer-led therapy—think group activities, coffee chats, and one-on-one support with trained specialists who’ve been there. “It’s about community,” said Neill Blake, NAMI Cobb’s programs director. “Sometimes, just coffee and conversation can be life-changing.” Opening early next year, the free center will feature art therapy, games, meditation, and more. For those battling isolation, it’s a lifeline. “Loneliness makes everything worse,” Blake added. “This could save lives.” STORY 5: OUT AND ABOUT: 5 things to do this weekend in Cobb County — Nov. 14 - 16 Atlanta Opera: ‘La Traviata’ This weekend’s your last chance to catch Verdi’s La Traviata at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre.

Philippine Missile Deployment to Deter China. Captain Jim Fanell reports that the Philippines unveiled its first operational BrahMos anti-ship cruise missile battery in western Luzon to deter Chinese aggression. This supersonic missile system, part of the $7.2 billion Reorizon 3 modernization program, gives the Philippines "skin in the game" near disputed waters like Scarborough Shoal. The deployment signifies a strategy to turn the Philippines into a "porcupine," focusing defense on the West Philippine Sea. The systems are road-mobile, making them difficult to target. 1915 MANILA
Batteries aren't just supporting the grid anymore, they are defending the grid.Chris Finley, CCO of TruGrid, joins Nico on stage at PowerUp Live to explain how battery storage has shifted from a “nice-to-have” to a mission-critical asset class. Whether it's enabling arbitrage in ERCOT or powering hyperscale data centers, battery systems are now leading the charge, literally.From the complexities of supply chains to the myths about lithium tech, Chris shares a practical, from-the-field perspective on what it takes to deliver large-scale battery projects in today's challenging market. He also breaks down how policy shifts and interconnection delays are forcing EPCs to rethink how they plan and execute storage projects.Expect to learn:
Earlier this month, Minnesota-based Xcel Energy announced it wants to double the amount of lithium battery storage it already planned to install next to its Sherco coal-fired power plant in central Minnesota. The batteries would allow Xcel to store energy produced at its wind, solar, nuclear and natural gas plants across the Upper Midwest.MPR News reporter Kirsti Marohn has been covering how batteries that store electricity on demand are becoming an increasingly important part of the transition to clean energy. She joined MPR News host Nina Moini to share more about her reporting as part of a weekly check in with MPR News reporters based in greater Minnesota.
#319 The modern power grid faces an existential challenge: integrating massive amounts of renewable energy while keeping the lights on. Sean Kelly, CEO and Founder of Amperon, explains how artificial intelligence and machine learning are replacing outdated forecasting methods to predict energy supply and demand with precision. This conversation explores battery optimization, demand response programs, and why traditional grid models no longer work in a world of extreme weather and distributed generation.Sean Kelly leads Amperon, a company providing AI-driven energy forecasting platforms for grid operators, battery owners, and energy traders. With nearly 20 years of experience in energy trading and risk management, Kelly has worked for major energy firms such as Tenaska, Lehman, EDF, and E.ON, where he led significant trading desk developments and transitions, including bringing nuclear power plants into new markets. Key Discussion Points:Traditional forecasting models look backward. AI models look forward and learn in real time, adapting to grid changes as they happen.Battery storage is exploding. ERCOT expects 40% more storage in the next 5 years. Texas batteries run 1-2 hours, California runs 4-hour batteries, and companies like Form Energy are developing 100+ hour systems.The critical hours are 6pm to 9pm. When solar goes down at sunset and wind drops simultaneously, batteries become essential. Amperon's platform tells operators exactly when to charge and discharge for maximum profit.The grid needs 6 terawatt hours of energy storage but we're only one-tenth of the way there. Developers should build all projects battery-ready or include storage today.Demand response works like insurance. Grid operators pay large customers to reduce load during peak times. Penalties are severe for non-compliance, ensuring the system works when needed.Forecasting is no longer optional. Sean calls it "the operating system of the modern grid." Historical averages won't keep the lights on anymore.Data centers and large industrial loads play a critical role in grid flexibility, backing down from 20 megawatts to 10 megawatts when grid operators need relief.Connect with Sean Kelly LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sean-kelly-0792626/ Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

The Mishneh Torah was the Rambam's (Rabbi Moses ben Maimon) magnum opus, a work spanning hundreds of chapters and describing all of the laws mentioned in the Torah. To this day it is the only work that details all of Jewish observance, including those laws which are only applicable when the Holy Temple is in place. Participating in one of the annual study cycles of these laws (3 chapters/day, 1 chapter/day, or Sefer Hamitzvot) is a way we can play a small but essential part in rebuilding the final Temple.
