Finally, an admission!
Skelly said markets and mechanisms are critical, “so that private actors can come in and compete and beat the crap out of each other and bring costs down.”
Well, you can't beat the crap out of someone who isn't composed of crap in the first place.
Touche'.
We also get one of those almost analogies that Skelly spews. The ones where he tries to make an analogy, but in the same breath ends up tripping over it.

“It’s not a gale-force wind, but it’s a little bit of momentum out there in the world for us to tap into,” said Michael Skelly, the CEO of Grid United, a Houston-based transmission developer.
You would think in eight years, you would have sort of a lull, but it’s a sort of a mad dash every day to move these projects forward,” Skelly said. “It’s more like an Ironman [Triathlon], not a marathon. It’s more like a decathlon, but it goes on for eight years.”
Blah, blah, blah. Why does anyone think this guy is relevant anymore? He's admittedly full of crap. He has no relevance to the story here, but that never stops him from making failed analogies to the media.

Right. Pretty nice cash flow. The utilities are raking it in... and it all comes from our pockets. They wouldn't be interested in "clean energy" at all if they weren't making money hand-over-fist building it. It's not about climate change, equity, or the future of our planet. It's about

I'll take that bet and raise you $20, Gale.
When you put out the cheese, the rats will show up.
So much crap, it smells like an overflowing manure pit on an August afternoon. Also an analogy... correctly presented.
