Dear readers,

I launched **Quitting Carbon** last year with a simple goal: provide context on the projects, people, and policies advancing the energy transition.

There is no shortage of sites to go to for news, to scroll through headlines. But you won’t understand what is going on in the world if you rely on headlines alone. A trusted guide helps.

When it comes to the world of energy, let me be your guide. I’ve reported on and analyzed the energy transition for 20 years. Pick a sector or industry – offshore wind and energy efficiency, nuclear power and marine energy, building decarbonization and microgrids – and I’ve likely either reported on it myself or edited a feature on the topic.

You’re in good hands.

“If I had unlimited funds, I’d pay for all the Substacks I read,” a newsletter enthusiast [told](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/10/business/substack-newsletter-subscription-costs.html?ref=quittingcarbonmedia.com) the New York Times’ Logan Sachon last month. “I’m a firm believer that if you’re putting in quality work, you deserve to get paid.”

If you’ve come to appreciate this newsletter’s mix of original [reporting](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/tag/reporting/), [commentary](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/tag/commentary/), [Q&As](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/tag/interviews/), and [recaps of what I've been reading](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/tag/what-im-reading/), then I hope you'll feel it’s worth investing in, too.

I know you don’t have unlimited funds, so this week you can take advantage of a special offer [**to get one year of Quitting Carbon at a 40% discount**](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/special-offer).

I have big plans for this newsletter for the remainder of this year and beyond: more reporting from the field, more dispatches from events in California and beyond, and more conversations with the policymakers and business leaders shaping the energy transition.

But I can only do so with your support. **Quitting Carbon** is and will be a reader-supported publication.

If independent journalism on the energy transition – that you can trust – matters to you, I hope you will consider becoming a paid subscriber. The [**40% off special offer**](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/special-offer) **is good through June 13**.

And if a [**paid subscription**](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/special-offer) is too big a financial lift for you right now, no problem. Please consider [**making a one-time donation instead**](https://www.quittingcarbonmedia.com/#/portal/support).

With gratitude,

Justin
