Clean tech is ready; the grid is not. Batteries, solar, and EVs are scaling fast, but interconnection backlogs, transformer shortages, permitting delays, and slow policy execution are the real speed limits. From Ford’s new 512 Ah LFP grid battery to a Virginia solar project’s five‑year queue setback, the transition’s bottlenecks are about building and connecting—not inventing.
