Good morning with good news: US solar skyrocketed ~28% in May 2025, compared to May 2024. Solar jumped to 39.46 TWh from 30.64 TWh. Solar generated a record 11% of US electricity in May. May Solar Generation (TWh): 2025: 39.46 2024: 30.64 2020: 13.92 2015: 3.90 Solar up ~3X since 2020 #energysky

Good morning with good news: Chile keeps pushing to 100% renewables. It begins construction on 3 solar projects & 1 wind farm, totaling 420 MW, plus 360 MW of storage to firm the new solar & wind. Chile was 69.90% RE in 2024, with W&S at 34%! www.pv-magazine-latam.com/2025/05/27/a... #energysky

Peaking Coal in China! China's coal generation in March and April 2025 was down nearly 2%, compared to March and April 2024! Coal generation in April 2025 was down nearly 1%, compared to April 2021! Coal Generation Peaking April 2025: 416 TWh April 2024: 424 TWh April 2021: 419 TWh #energysky

China's March CO2 emissions are down compared to March 2024 & down in Q1 2025! Why? Grid CO2 falls 5.8% in Q1 2025, while power demand grew by 2.5%. Fossil fuel generation fell 4.7%! Why? Rising solar, wind & nuclear generation displace coal/gas! #energysky www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-cle...

Today's #HydrogenSoufflé comes to you from #Detroit #Michigan, which has been promising #H2FC vehicles for 53 years. General Motors has pressed pause on its much-hyped #hydrogen fuel cell manufacturing facility. www.hydrogenfuelnews.com/gm-halts-det...

Good morning with good news: The massive 800 MW Double Black Diamond solar plant in Illinois is the largest solar farm east of the Mississippi, and it is now operational! Built with US made solar panels, it will pay $100 million in local taxes! #energysky swiftcurrentenergy.com/tag/double-b...

Spain hits first ever weekday of renewables meeting 100% of electricity demand This was deemed impossible by so many fossilised pundits, and they continue to deem it “impossible” even as 100% renewables is rolled out live www.pv-magazine.com/2025/04/22/s...

President Macron reacted to massive Russian attack of Ukraine. He said that while Putin says to the whole world "I want peace," he continues to bomb Ukraine. "The only thing to do is for Putin to finally stop lying. America's anger must be directed at only one person, president Putin,"he said

🚨 NEW RECORD | Fossil fuels fell below 50% of US electricity for the first month on record This was driven by solar and wind reaching a record high 📈 In March 2025, solar increased by 37% (+8.3 TWh) and wind by 12% (+5.7 TWh) compared to the year before ↗️ ember-energy.org/dat...

Tragic and inhumane images coming out from Kryvyi Rih. Another reckless Russian attack struck a crowded residential area, reportedly killing at least 14, including 6 children. Russia continues to destroy Ukraine, no interest in peace.

Day 128. No way that we stop. And they cannot consolidate “painlessly,” without years of instability. You can help us avoid costs that can be avoided in our liberation struggle through sanctions that are tailored to push the regime to schedule free elections. #GeorgiaProtests

Good morning with good news: UK's huge 1.4 GW Sofia offshore wind farm has its first turbine installed. First power will be delivered in 2025 and full operations achieved in 2026. UK's goal is 50 GW of offshore wind by 2030, so gas burning will fall! www.enerdata.net/publications... #energysky

Good morning with good news: Portugal is rapidly pushing fossil fuels off its grid! Fossil fuels fell to 14.8% of its electricity in 2024 from 82% in 2005! It's reduced fossil fuels by an average of`3.6 points per year! Wind & solar skyrocketed from 4% in 2005 to 46% in 2024 #energysky #greensky

‘Oliekoekendom’, zo noemde de staatssecretaris van Landbouw het krimpen van de veestapel, in het licht van de voedselzekerheid. Maar is dit echt zo’n slecht idee? FTM dook in de cijfers en kwam tot een verrassende conclusie: een kleinere veestapel is gunstig voor de internationale voedselzekerheid.

RECORD | California and Nevada each surpassed 30% solar in their electricity mix for the first time in 2024, a first for US states 🇺🇸 Batteries were crucial to CA’s success, transferring a significant share of daytime solar to the evening. ember-energy.org/lat...

Good morning with good news: Global solar deployment in 2025 will jump to ~700 GW says BNEF! That is ~16% more than the record 599 GW in 2024. Wow! 2025 deployment will be ~2.8 times the 2022 total of 252 GW! 2026 deployment will be ~753 GW! #energysky www.pv-magazine.com/2025/03/13/b...

EDF's flagship new nuclear power station in Flamanville - whose opening was delayed by 12 years - has been down for 76 of its first 100 days. I sincerely hope it eventually becomes a workhorse of Europe's power system - but don't let anyone tell you nuclear is easy. reporterre.net/Nucleaire-l-...

Privacy isn’t about hiding—it’s about trust and control over our own information. In her #SXSW 2025 Keynote, Signal President, @meredithmeredith.bsky.social breaks down why our privacy matters.

Greetings from SXSW. Just saw Meredith Whittaker (Signal CEO) gave a great talk on why everyone needs privacy even if you don’t think you do. And how being a nonprofit removes the temptation to “further monetize” information you have on your users

Oekraïense oppositie wil geen verkiezingen tijdens oorlog. Er is ineens weer breedgedragen steun voor Trudeau in Canada. De EU + VK stralen (los van Orbán) sterke harmonie uit. Extreemrechts keldert weer in de peilingen. Trump is een echte verbinder.

Park-ing day in Utrecht. Park parkeerdag in Utrecht.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

If we look at the numbers,it’s obvious how enormous the contribution of the EU to Ukraine’s defense has been.To say that the EU helps Ukraine less than the USA is simply untrue The total aid allocated by Europe to Ukraine over the past 3 years surpasses the US– nearing almost €140 billion,—IFW

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

China’s plateauing oil consumption is without precedent for a country at its stage of economic development, the International Energy Agency said. China's demand for oil was flat in 2024 and may fall in 2025 as EVs & economic shifts destroy demand. www.bloomberg.com/news/article... #Upshift 🔌💡🔌🚗

The Liberal Party of Australia has made an ad about its Nuclear Plan, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBqV...

In 2004, it took the world a year to add a gigawatt of solar power — now it takes a day

Wat een verhaal: 'Radicale klimaatactivisten' die ruim 270 auto's beschadigden en met Groenen-stickers beplakten, bleken in werkelijkheid door Rusland aangestuurde 'amateuragenten'. Bedoeld om afkeer tegen de Groenen te vergroten. Verhaal van Spiegel: www.spiegel.de/panorama/jus...

this is how it feels to reach 30 MILLION users!!!

Our response to the far-right attacks on our democracy, rights, planet and liberties: Hope and resistance. As they plan to drown us in darkness, 100k people on the streets of Berlin turned on the lights yesterday.

Bedankt 🇳🇱!

Voorstanders van vrede vinden dat Denemarken moet onderhandelen met Trump

Musk wordt met de minuut gekker. Tijd dat alle grote nieuwsorganisaties, overheidsorganisaties, verantwoordelijke politici vertrekken van zijn X. Dan blijven alleen nog intriganten, gestoorden en rechtsextremisten over. En die overtuig je toch niet door te blijven.

The AfD/Musk-supporting terrorist who attacked the German Christmas market planned his atrocity in full view on TwitterX over the course of a year. He was reported multiple times, but TwitterX did nothing to take him down or report him to authorities.

In Utrecht worden elektrische deelauto's ingezet als rijdende 'superbatterijen'. Die kunnen tijdelijk energie opslaan en vervolgens terugleveren.
