EV adoption in Singapore soars to 60% in 2026. On way to reach 90% much before 2030.

A huge mile stone! For the first time ever, fossil fuel power generation fell in every OECD country. First time ever. EU emissions are on track to meet Paris targets.

Battery storage has exploded in 2025, to 250GWh. That is enough to shift 14% of new solar capacity added to evening/night hours. That is huge. Sun does shine at night now.

Pakistan's gas generation fell from 48.6% to 22.3% between 2019 and 2025. Why? Massive rooftop solar by individuals with zero help from govts. That is the power of solar - to transform societies and economies almost over-night. Pakistan experiment will be repeated everywhere.

EV sales in Europe jump 51% in yoy sales. Gul oil war is pushing people to explore alternatives. And they are choosing EVs. Europe is world's 3rd biggest auto market. A 51% rise in word's 3rd biggest auto market means something. thedriven.io/2026/04/23/e...

China, US lead solar in total generation. Hungary, Chile, Greece, Spain lead in share of total power while Australia, Dutch and Israel lead in per capital solar generation. Transition to renewable energy creating leaders from unexpected quarters. Good. We have hope.

Australia stared late but picked up speed. Now on track to 80% EV adoption by 2030 - just 4 years away. Oil is done. Peak oil is now. Petro states are panicking. thedriven.io/2026/04/23/a...

Lufthansa Cuts 20,000 Flights to Save Fuel as Iran War Fallout Spreads, saving 70,000 metric tons of fuel. Wars are destructive and add CO emissions. Reduced flights may give Erath some breathing space. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/22/b...

56% of all city buses in Europe are now electric. The city buses run all day every day. The diesel ones guzzle millions of litres of diesel. Replacing a diesel city bus is equivalent to replacing a 100s private cars.

In 2025, China added 434 GW of wind and solar power. That is equivalent to adding 1.2 nuclear reactors (capacity) DAILY.

Exponential growth in US gid sized battery storage is one big bright spot helping. Now getting better than China. That is a remarkable feat. Batteries are killing peaker gas plants. A huge win for climate.

Wow! Who thought the ever successful, perennial risk averse, mighty Japanese automakers will be losing sleep over the business they dominate. Now they do. Too bad. Toyota funded anti-EV disinformation. Karma catching up. They destroyed our planet, lost their biz www.economist.com/business/202...

Amazing! California, world's 4th largest economy, gets more than 2/3rd of its electricity from clean sources.

Electric trucks outsell diesel ones in December 2025. Electrification of heavy transport may happen fater than we anticipate.

600TWh of solar added in 2025. Renewables and nuclear growth more than demand growth. Fossil fuel power generation declined in 2025.

EV sales rose by 80% in the rest of the world in 2025. 21 million EVS sold in 2025 25% of all cars sold in 2025 were EVs EV tsunami is here.

Batteries met 44% of evening peak demand in California, 4th largest economy. No lab experiment. No hypothetical scenario. Real life. For the 4th largest economy. Now sun continues to shine well into night - even all night.

EVs make up 20% of all sales of Hyundai cars in Australia. Hyundai expects EV sales to grow 70% in the next quarter.

Solar power numbers from Australia are just mind blowing. Every 2/5 homes have rooftop solar. Rooftop solar in Australia now generate about 40% of all daily electricity demand. Other countries need to copy this template for rapid decarbonization of their electric grids.

Amazing! Volvo releases a ~700 km heavy duty truck. In countries like India, a small fraction of vehicles, trucks, make up 40% of all transport sectors CO2 emissions. Electrification of heavy duty transport is no longer a concept but a reality. thedriven.io/2026/04/16/v...

Here is key to understand how economic growth does necessarily mean fossil fuels. The twin energy shocks in 70s decoupled the fossil fuel growth from economic growth as electricity filled the gap. Net Zero can be achieved with economic growth.

Sad wealthy countries like UK, Spain, France, and of course Canada and US, have such low electrification rates for trains where India has achieved total electrification. No reason why wealthy European nations with extensive railway network shouldn't be getting rid of diesel.

And Electric trucks delivering a range of 350 kms on a single charge. Indian distances are short and speeds are slow. It will cover so much freight trips.

100 EVs were delivered to customers by Suzuki in one day at one location in India. EV adoption will turbo charge as every major carmaker in India releases more EV models and the oil price shock ripples through.

Hungarians showing how to win big in an unfair election: organize AND protest AND vote AND demand profound change.

Electric trucks are on Australian road already. And growing in numbers. Lately Australia has been a big source of climate success stories - from rooftop solar to home batteries to surging EV demand in the post-Gulf war era.

I am as happy as anyone could be. Yet 16 years is a long time to do real damage to Hungary and the world. Our democracy and institutions must evolve to counter hate and disinformation as tools of power. We can't afford to wait out for their corruption to become unbearable.

India, just like China, continues to build coal plants. Yet it is producing ever declining coal power. 44TWh less.

Record solar and wind power in March saved UK gas imports worth 1 Billion pounds. Just one month.

Huge boost for EVs, heat pumps and decarbonizing industry as France doubles its budget for electrifying the economy - to 10 billion euros per year until 2030. www.reuters.com/business/ene...

In France, every car parking lot with 80+ spots should be at least 50% covered with solar panels. The scheme aims to generated 7-11GW of power. Almost equal to 7-11 nuclear stations. Other countries need to adopt this as well. Close to demand. No new transmission lines. No new space needed.

Amazing! India added 44.6 GW of solar, 6 GW of wind capacity in yr ending 3/26. Solar/wind increased 87.2% and 45.6%.India’s total renewable energy capacity reached 275. Solar power accounts for around 55% with 150.26 GW while wind at 20%, large hydro at 19%. www.pv-magazine.com/2026/04/10/i...

In some parts of India EV bookings are up by 500%. EV sales are expected to take off big time in India - world's 4th largest auto market and 3rd largest emitter of CO2 emissions.

UK approves the largest solar farm, enough to power 180,000 homes, covering the area equal to 1700 football fields . www.bbc.com/news/article...

Solar is now ALL the growth in US power generation. ALL. Solar is the real deal and the big deal. Time to get on with it.

Italy has opened the biggest rooftop solar project covering a parking lot. Rated at 40 MW. If all car parks were covered with solar, it would generated 6%-8% of global electricity demand.

Many of Indian states don't even need fancy systems. Even smaller systems can met more than 50% of electricity demand..

75% of electricity demand in India's 10 largest states could be easily met with solar and batteries at rates lower than current procurement rates. That is massive. India is world's 3rd largest emitter of CO2 emissions.

Electric trucks are now reaching price parity in many sectors and their sales are rising in China and elsewhere. In China electric trucks make up 25% of new sales and will outsell diesel ones in 2026. www.abc.net.au/news/science...
