Looking for electricity pun/punch line ideas

I'm writing an article about lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (ESS). The article talks highly of ESSs and the positive impact this technology will have in transitioning our energy grid to net neutral carbon emissions.

The last sentence of the article is currently "in short, the future for how we build cities is charged with potential."

Anyone have a better pun/punch line idea for this sentence?

Not sure if this is appropriate for this sub but if not, let me know if there's anywhere I can post this. Thanks a lot :)

The hidden puns of LexisNexis

Years ago I used to use a LexisNexis database of companies that would give corporate information like name, address, and general business description. While most of them were pretty bland, there were a bunch of them with some really cheesy puns, and over a few years I built quite a collection.

Today I share with you "NEXIS IS RIDICULOUS.txt":
