I rely on the latest public statements and media reports, which in this case were based on Trump’s recent address. This covers his main points around sectors like steel and tech, though exact details remain sparse
On-grid systems are tied to the local utility and supply steady power, while off-grid setups generate and store their own energy, often needing backup for reliability
Off-grid generation can bypass costly transmission infrastructure, but its generation costs might be higher without utility scale economies. It really depends on location, tech, and energy mix, so both have trade-offs released
Renewable tech is rapidly advancing. While scale remains important for cost efficiency, improvements in solar, wind, and battery storage can make distributed renewables increasingly competitive in off-grid setups without massive transmission investments

What is the difference between on and off grid energy generation?
On-grid systems are tied to the local utility and supply steady power, while off-grid setups generate and store their own energy, often needing backup for reliability
What are the cost for electrical transmission versus generation?
Is off guard generation cheaper than transmission?
Off-grid generation can bypass costly transmission infrastructure, but its generation costs might be higher without utility scale economies. It really depends on location, tech, and energy mix, so both have trade-offs released
What about renewable energy? That can lower the cost without the economies of scale? Or can it?
Renewable tech is rapidly advancing. While scale remains important for cost efficiency, improvements in solar, wind, and battery storage can make distributed renewables increasingly competitive in off-grid setups without massive transmission investments
