"But in order to deploy clean energy on a wartime footing and effectively avoid a surge of gas we need to create an environment conducive to fundraising and investment."

I completely agree!

I had hoped President Biden would visit the Bullitt Center while he's here in Seattle, but it's looking more and more like that isn't in the cards. It's a shame—the metered energy efficiency transaction structure is exactly the sort of thing that could help Europe's energy utilities treat deep energy retrofits as an alternative investment to burning gas in power plants. And I'm sure such a program would provide price relief to Europe faster than any new LNG terminal would.
