Denmark didn’t just “phase out” coal. It made it obsolete.
Coal: 85% → 3%
Wind: 11% → 60%
Solar: 0% → 13%
Renewables: 15% → 92%
Wind scaled first. Biomass stabilised. Solar is now accelerating the endgame.
Transitions evolve. Systems get replaced. #Bettrification #RIPCOAL

⚡ The 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy Compact is how governments, utilities, and buyers commit to the same north star: every kilowatt-hour matched with clean power, every hour, everywhere.
Hourly accountability is in.

In #Zambia, @SEforALLorg @RockefellerFdn @RuralZambia & partners are rethinking #energyaccess.
We are building systems where demand & supply grow together, and where local economies are powered by productive energy use and sustainable off-grid solutions.

🌍 #EarthDay is a reminder — but action happens in the details.
In events, sustainability comes down to everyday decisions:
venues, suppliers, energy, waste, materials.
👉 What will you do differently at your next event?

Latest @IRENA data confirms persistent regional disparities in #renewables expansion during 2025. Asia kept leading with 513.3 GW added, while other regions e.g. Africa & Oceania saw much less than 100 GW additions, exposing their vulnerability to high prices & stock shortage.

For anyone wondering whether the fossil fuel crisis in the Middle East is driving interest in clean energy technologies:
China's exports of batteries, EVs and solar products shot up in March to $21.9 billion!
This is an all-time record and a 70% increase over March 2025.
Ember@ember_energy
NEW | Record exports of solar, batteries and EVs last month 📈 China’s exports for the ‘new three’ industries reached a record high of $21.9bn in March 2026, up 70% year-on-year, in the wake of the US-Israel war with Iran and changing export rebates for solar and batteries.

Growth in the world's energy use in 2025 was met by a diverse range of sources – led by solar PV, followed by natural gas
Solar accounted for over 25% of global demand growth. This is the 1st time it has met a higher share of growth than any other source: iea.li/487gAXQ

Before the twin fossil shocks of the 1970s, GDP growth ran in parallel with fossil growth.
Afterwards, electricity took its place – the new fuel of economic growth.
Even then, the first signs of the #electrotech economy were emerging ⚡

The 1970s fossil shocks led to a peak in per capita fossil consumption.
Today, scalable, cost-effective #electrotech alternatives are set to accelerate a decline in absolute fossil consumption ⚡

⚡ The energy transition isn’t just about setting targets — it’s about delivering on them.
Real progress comes from aligning governments, industry, and civil society around clear pathways, shared accountability, and sustained collaboration.

🍺 Cheers! This Guinness brewery was designed from the ground up as a carbon-neutral facility using heat pumps coupled with renewables.
They just got planning permission to double its brand new fossil-free brewery in Kildare.

#SunDay DYK Solar panels cost $1,000/watt in 1958. Twelve cents today. That's Wright's Law: every doubling of production cuts costs by 23.7%, holding over 50 years.

What we must do immediately:
1) End the use of fossil fuels
2) Build massive amounts of solar & wind
3) Electrify everything
4) Localize
5) Conserve
5) Find solutions for the last hard stuff (planes, cement)
6) Stop cutting down forests
