![]() The app also includes a cool “Network Boost” feature, which first shows you the speed of your network and then lets you boost it, which is the app simply resetting the network. You can also install the APK files quickly or just remove them. You can uninstall third party apps here and while the app claims to uninstall system apps too, it failed in our testing. The DU Speed Booster app also packs in an app manager, which lets you uninstall apps and manage APK files. The feature lists down cache files, residual files, system trash, useless APK files and other files that you can delete to free up storage on your device. But, without Democratic control of Congress and with a Supreme Court that has severely limited the ability of agencies to maneuver, options are limited.If you are low on storage on your Android device, the “Trash Cleaner” in DU Speed Booster will definitely come in handy. Some activists will complain that the Administration’s approach to climate-including with this regulation-has been too business friendly. And a Deloitte survey from earlier this year found that 65% of C-suite officers had increased their climate action in response to the changing regulatory climate. The IRA has driven a spike in investment in U.S.-based clean technology manufacturing even as the Administration is still putting the finishing touches on how to implement and disburse money under that law. Those compromises seem to have worked, as many companies are responding to the array of nudges-and not just in the power sector but across the economy. “They’ve been great partners with us,” Pedro Pizarro, the CEO of Edison International, which provides electricity for 15 million in Southern California, told me last fall. ![]() The Edison Electric Institute, a trade group for investor owned utilities, issued a carefully parsed statement on the new rule, delaying judgment but thanking the Administration for working closely with industry as it formulated them. But it’s hard to deny that the Administration has tried to engage companies. Many regulated companies will of course continue to complain about the regulations-and indeed many corporate executives are skeptical of the new power plant rules. And the companies that do choose to install carbon capture technology to meet the standards will benefit from tax incentives in the IRA, helping them stomach the cost. Companies face less stringent standards for existing plants that will retire before 2035 compared to 2040, as well as for plants that are designed to operate less frequently. While the rule will clearly push some coal-fired power plants to close early and impose new costs on the construction of new natural gas plants, it goes to lengths to ease the transition for industry. The attempt to win over power companies is evident in the final language of the rule announced this week. Since then, successive administrations have tried and failed to write rules that would stand up to legal scrutiny-often due to intense blowback from industry. Power plant regulation has been a source of tension between industry and the federal government ever since the Supreme Court ruled in 2006 that the EPA needed to regulate carbon dioxide emissions. Taking such an approach with power plant rules was always going to be challenging. “The power sector then can take a look at the economics to comply with those rules at one time, or they can say ‘hey, to hell with the past, let’s invest more quickly in the future.’” Regan told me that, in the past, companies have viewed the drumbeat of EPA regulations as “death by 1,000 paper cuts.” He wanted to present the power sector with “a suite of regulations” in quick succession, he said.
