Prove It book cover Coming Soon

Prove It

The claims are easy. The evidence is the hard part — and this is the book that goes after it.

The Books

Twenty-seven books, written to be used, not shelved.

Seventy-five years of computing swinging between centralized and distributed — and why the power grid, not the chip, is now the bottleneck the data center era runs into.

Full Circle book cover Context Series

Full Circle: The Return of the Independent Home

Power started at the house, moved to the central plant, and is coming back again — the long arc of decentralization, and what it means for the home that generates its own.

The Rules of Power book cover Context Series

The Rules of Power

An overview of US energy policy — where the rules came from, what they do now, and who they actually serve.

Convergence book cover Context Series

Convergence

The solar, HVAC, and insulation industries are consolidating into a single trade — Energy Technology Systems Integration. This is what that industry looks like, and why it was inevitable.

What Actually Heats America book cover Technology Deep Dive Series

What Actually Heats America

Natural gas, propane, and fuel oil — the combustion fuels a majority of American households still burn, described rather than argued over.

Untapped book cover Technology Deep Dive Series

Untapped

Twelve gigawatts already sit in America's 54,000 non-powered dams. The water is falling anyway — this is what it would take to put a turbine in the concrete.

The Fuel We Stopped Seeing book cover Technology Deep Dive Series

The Fuel We Stopped Seeing

Coal's history, its current place in American generation, and the part it still plays in the energy conversation — described honestly rather than argued over.

The Air We Breathe, The Power We Need book cover Technology Deep Dive Series

The Air We Breathe, The Power We Need

Wind generation from the Persian asbad to the terawatt era — the physics, the economics, and the objections, with the numbers attached.

Energy Inclusiveness book cover Context Series

Energy Inclusiveness

Why no single technology fits every place — matching the right energy mix to geography, economics, and policy instead of dogma.

Get EI book cover Context Series

Get EI

The working companion to Energy Inclusiveness — putting the framework to use in real decisions.

From Transactions to Trust

The case for a co-op referral model built on the trust solar companies already have with their customers.

Looking Ahead and Around the Corner

A short, practical guide to the habit of foresight — spotting what's next before it becomes obvious.

Thermal Intelligence book cover Technology Series

Thermal Intelligence

A look at the thermal technologies quietly reshaping how buildings heat, cool, and save energy.

Energy Deregulation book cover Context Series

Energy Deregulation

What deregulated energy markets mean for the businesses and homeowners now doing the choosing.

Tapping into Geothermal Energy book cover Technology Series

Tapping into Geothermal Energy

The case for treating the heat beneath our feet as the unseen giant of clean power.

The next big step in clean energy, and what it will take to get hydrogen there.

The Energy Suite Is Here Now book cover Context Series

The Energy Suite Is Here Now

The introduction to The Energy Suite platform — and why the co-op model is already working.

The Energy Savings Catalyst book cover Where It Started

The Energy Savings Catalyst

The first book — the argument that started everything, that energy savings begin with the decisions people are already making.

Non-Energy Works

Everything else worth writing down.

Books outside the energy shelf — on attention, on connection, on ghost towns, and on what one generation owes the next.

Pickaxe to Keyboard book cover Travel & Geography

Pickaxe to Keyboard

Eighty-two Colorado ghost towns, driven and photographed one by one — a travel guide paired with an unlikely thesis: the same boom-bust pattern behind every mining camp is playing out in tech startups today.
