Oha
"mit fatalen Folgen für die Industrie" ist natürlich gnadenlos auf den weak point ihrer Argumentation, weil sie ja immer betont, dass sie die Erneuerbaren zum Wohl & Frommen der Industrie bremsen müsse

Next is the part where solar pulls way ahead of the other two.
Jesse Peltan@JessePeltan
Solar and wind now both individually generate more electricity than nuclear.

44% of evening peak met by batteries. In California, world’s 4th largest economy. Not some tiny pilot project or a niche experiment, a global industrial powerhouse
If you’re still sitting in boardrooms or parliament banging on about baseload and the intermittency of renewables, you’re not just wrong, you’re a dinosaur
California's 44% isn't an anomaly. It's a preview of the 2027-2030 reality for every major grid overbuilding renewables
The "technical barriers" the fossil fuel lobby loves to cry about are gone. We are shifting solar and wind into the night at a massive, industrial scale. We don't need expensive, inflexible coal or gas to keep the lights on; we need more storage and we need it now - everywhere

China has 1.5 terawatts of solar, more than 5x the U.S.
China built ~0.4 TW in just the last year, more than the U.S. has in total.

We should really be doing a lot more.

O primeiro-ministro francês Sébastian Lecornu afirma que a eletrificação é agora uma questão de «interesse nacional» e não apenas de alterações climáticas.

Godspeed to the people of Hungary today, who deserve to escape the misrule of a corrupt Kremlin lackey. May they return to the path of democracy and prosperity without bloodshed. 🇭🇺

@GFelbermayr @WIFOat @B_Kasberger Do I understand correctly that this would come with an incentive for non-fossil producers to sell OTC (with a small discount compared to the clearing price)? As the deduction of CO2 proxy would have to be considered when calculating market premia for support schemes

Meine Prognose ist, dass die LKW-Flotte bei uns schneller elektrifiziert wird als PKW, da hier die ökonomischen Vorteile wichtiger sind als ideologische Halsstarrigkeit.

$3620/kW for a massive new gas power complex. Combined cycle power plants are apparently now are 3.5x more expensive than they were just a few years ago, even when building multiple at one site (with govt backing). Rethink the idea that new gas is a cheap (or quick) path to power

How on earth is the EU Parliament ratifying von der Leyen’s US-EU surrender deal?
15% tariffs on EU exports against 0% on US imports, plus over €1tn in forced purchases of US oil, LNG & weapons.
With Trump threatening Greenland, targeting Spain, and his own Supreme Court striking down his tariffs, MEPs are about to rubber-stamp a deal that’s manifestly an own goal for europe.
They do so against the public opinion they’re supposed to represent.
This isn’t ratification. It’s capitulation.

🇭🇺This should be clear: if Viktor Orbán is re-elected, Hungary should, for security reasons, be removed from NATO, Schengen, and the EU.

Hungary immediately leaks all EU talks to Moscow. Sijjarto “reported” directly to Lavrov about the EU meetings, - The Washington Post. According to the newspaper, the Hungarian Foreign Minister called Moscow directly during the EU meetings and relayed details of the discussions to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. Sources say this communication allowed Russia to stay informed about the internal discussions of the European Union. Sijjarto himself has not commented on the situation. However, he has visited Moscow several times since 2022 and met with the Russian leadership.

Where is Plan B? It’s incredible that van der Leyen, Merz, and all the others make Ukraine's financial survival contingent on Orbán’s approval. What a failure of leadership.

Well, that's a new angle. Until now, the questionable, yet nonetheless vehemently put forward argument has been that due to marginal pricing RES earned excessive profits despite low variable cost. Now they are disadvantaged by the very same concept. Would love to understand this.

Peak EU absurdity.
We are preparing to repair a pipeline Russia itself bombed - to restart the flow of Russian oil we claim to be phasing out - for Hungary, which is blocking €90bn for Ukraine that we’re funding - sans Hungary.
If this is not paid from frozen Russian assets - which it should be, morally and legally -, this move is beyond delusional. We’re subsidising the aggressor instead of making them pay for their own destruction.
That’s clinical-grade masochism - collaboration in our own economic suicide and Ukraine's strangulation.
Ursula von der Leyen@vonderleyen
Statement with @eucopresident on the Druzhba pipeline Following the renewed Russian strikes on January 27 on the Druzhba pipeline, leading to the interruption of crude oil supplies to Hungary and Slovakia, we have engaged in intense discussions with Member States and Ukraine at all levels to restore the flow of oil to Hungary and Slovakia. The EU has offered Ukraine technical support and funding. The Ukrainians have welcomed and accepted this offer. European experts are available immediately. Our priority is to ensure energy security for all European citizens. In this sense, we will continue to work with the concerned parties on alternative routes for the transit of non-Russian crude oil to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
