Dan Wang on how far behind the U.S. is on energy: "China built about 500 gigawatts of solar last year. The U.S. built about 50. China has 40 nuclear power plants under construction. The U.S. is zero. I think the U.S. needs to build a lot more and I think the challenge is that these are like hyperlocal problems in which homeowners and NIMBYs are able to file suit three times a day before breakfast." — with @Bill Gurley, Founder of P3 Institute, with Dan Wang, Author of Breakneck #chinaenergy #energypolicy #billgurley #danwang #nimbys
