Pretty astonishing. In Texas, between 10:00 am and 4:00 p.m., 80-90% of electricity comes from carbon free sources. And storage is already a significant contributor in the early morning and evening

The final report on the Iberia Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) blackout is out. A lot of people will be blaming renewables and talk about inertia. But the cause was bad voltage control and that's surprisingly easy to fix. Let me explain. #Publications_&_Documents" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">entsoe.eu/publications/b…

1/1000 the cost of a highway with 1/10000 the traffic fatalities.

JUST IN: Prices come in 19% below the ceiling price - much lower than where many people expected... Eight new offshore projects >> 8.4 GW! Where's where they are...

The idea that using renewables means you need two systems which will be more expensive is just ignorant poppycrock. You actually need one system instead of two (you can do away with gas heating) and the mechanism that optimizes the use of solar and wind makes it robust too.
Alex Trembath@atrembath

“We’re running a two system grid: one to harvest cheap variable energy and another to guarantee reliability. Two systems cost more than one.”

Electrification + efficiency — not rolling back climate policy — is the real path to a competitive European industry. High fossil fuel prices hit industry hardest, not the Green Deal. Undermining clean-energy commitments would only push investment elsewhere. My interview with @euobs euobserver.com/green-economy/…

Believe it or not, blanket rezoning is back at city hall. As we continue the discussion around how to best move forward as a city, one thing we all have to remember: Calgary is growing and we all need a safe, affordable, and vibrant place to live. #yyc #yyccc

'Community driven approach' is often code for endless engagement loops & approval processes that hand control over to vocal NIMBYs that want zero change. The big community concerns have been laid out in the motion. Addressing them through tweaks to permitted use RCG is a win-win
Jeromy (Pathfinder) Farkas@JeromyYYC

I've sponsored a motion to repeal blanket rezoning -- and our Executive Committee has just approved sending it to full Council for debate. I'm committed to addressing blanket rezoning and replacing it with a community-driven approach, to restore certainty and build needed housing to support our growing city. #yyccc

Critics of renewables often point to land use as a reason not to do wind & solar. Land use IS a real issue for all energy assets incl renewables unless onsite. But what critics conveniently forget is huge land impact of fossil fuels. Aerial view of fracking sites in Texas. 👇

Don’t be a mug — read the trend. 📈 Renewables are set to overtake coal as the world’s top power source by 2026. Solar, wind & batteries aren’t the future — they’re the system now. Fossil fuels are flatlining while clean power goes exponential. #BESS #Lithium #EnergyTransition

Another new storage record in ERCOT 🔋⚡️ Last Sunday, storage delivered 15% of grid power at 6:40pm, more than coal did at the same time. Expanding grid storage is taking advantage of solar resources and will make gas run more efficiently.
