But we're going to have so many successes. And I just think that that is something that we are so proud of, not just within the Biden administration, But the entire American public, they love bragging about how awesome we are at inventing new stuff. And pretty soon they're going to be bragging about how we've all scaled it up here.

So let me say this a different way. We have unprecedented load growth in the United States right now. The tools that got us here are not going to be able to solve this problem in front of us.

If we don't scale up new nuclear, if we don't figure out enhanced geothermal, if we don't figure out grid modernization, if we don't figure out virtual power plants, then we will not meet this moment and we will have to sacrifice economic growth. I do not think that anyone wants us to lose the AI race.

I don't think anyone wants us to lose these manufacturing plants because we cannot interconnect them. And before you say, don't worry, we're going to do it with natural gas, you build as much of that as possible. It's not enough. And building new natural gas pipelines to all those plants is not an insurmountable hurdle. And so we're going to need all these technologies to succeed.

We need it to be able to meet this moment. And I just think that I can't even fathom that any president would say, I'd rather us not grow economically.

There will be an LPO next year. There will be an LPO. And we have 212 active loan applications seeking $324 billion. And my advice to the next LPO director is enjoy this extraordinary team that we were able to build. Enjoy the amazing people who have decided to interrupt their careers and move it here to the loan programs office and to the Department of Energy.

Oh, my goodness. I was supposed to be prepared for this. Well, you know, the book that has forever changed my life is Nassim Nicholas Tlaib's book, Fooled by Randomness. I read it before I started SunEdison a long time ago, and it reminds me today that all the things that people take credit for A lot of it was luck, and it's important to figure out luck versus what you actually did.

The second book would be What If We Get It Right by Ayanna Elizabeth Johnson, and she is such an inspiring person. I've had the pleasure to know her for years, and she's really attracted many of the brightest minds in the climate movement to really think through what this looks like and how this can be really a positive world that we're going into.

Because I really do think that getting this right is going to be an amazing future for all of us. And then the last book was, I recently read Romney, A Reckoning by, I think, McKay Coppins.
