Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.)

Email us! Uptime 139 Allen Hall: Joel, we have a really interesting show. So much has happened in the last couple of days, so we're trying just to catch up here at Uptime and give you the latest and greatest of Wind Energy News. Duke Energy is. Putting their renewable business up for sale and there's talks of, of it being around $4 billion and they have suitors already, which is amazing. So there's, there's transactions happening in wind and then TPI composites and GE make a 10 year agreement in Iowa. For reopening a plant. Thank goodness. It's about time we see some blade plants opening in the us Joel Saxum: so we are gonna jump down to the Gulf Coast and talk about Texas and Louisiana. Why we think that they're gonna be offshore wind winners in the us. It's ready to go down there. We just gotta worry about some hurricanes. Allen Hall: And then I have an interview with ESCO's, Senior Director of Customer Success Analytics, Jonathan Kath. And we go back and forth about all the technology that ESCO is bringing from SCADA data, enhanced SCADA data, and all the little defects they can find in your wind turbine and how to to improve the efficiency. And it's crazy how. Well, their software analytics are they, They can really improve the performance of wind turbine. So we have a really busy show. Stay tuned. More to come. I'm Alan Hall, president of Weather Guard Lightning Tech, and I'm here with my good friend from Wind Power Lab. Joel Saxon Rosemary's on a well-deserved break, and this is the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. Well, Joel Duke Energy has decided to sell its renewable business, which is a complete shock. I don't know anybody in the business community that was No. Heard anything about it. Yeah, right. Everybody figured Duke was in it for the long term, but they, the estimate for the business is about $4 billion and it sounds like they have. Tentative offers or aggressive bidders for, for that business. And it sounds like Duke is trying to bankroll themselves a little bit with the $4 billion. You could do a lot with $4 billion but they're trying to build up cash for. Taking on other projects. So they're, they're doing a lot of energy transitioning through in the next several years and they, they figured they better have some cash on hand, especially if interest rates are higher. They're at the same time, they're actually cutting, cutting costs. They're cutting about 300 million in costs. So 4 billion in the bank if they could sell the renewables business plus another couple hundred millions in savings, they're trying to, trying to protect themselves, and I think rightly so. But is this the first of, of this type of, of business sale or, or such? A large asset of renewables hits the blocks? I, Joel Saxum: I don't know if it's the first I. This size, man,
