    TLDR

    Substack shared an a16z profile of two founders who believe cheap batteries could help fix the aging US grid. Substack also quoted a warning that China generated more than twice as much electricity as the United States in 2025. The quote frames that gap as a growing national security problem as energy becomes a bottleneck for industries such as AI and manufacturing.
