EU wind and solar overtook fossil fuel power generation in 2025. Solar alone grew by more than 20% in a single year, proving that clean power can scale faster than other technologies. So the challenge now is not generation, but how quickly grids, batteries and flexibility can be deployed.

"To speak of energy sovereignty today is to speak of #renewables; no other path remains. The European Union has crossed a watershed, proving that wind and solar are the bedrock of a self-reliant era. In 2025, solar became the bloc’s top power source." www.eureporter.co/energy/2026/...

UK Royal Society concluded renewables plus long-duration storage not only feasible but will be cheaper than a system with any level of hashtag#nuclear power. Although solar has delivered the fastest energy transition in history, it’s set to be beaten by battery Energy Storage Systems- hashtag#BESS.

Times change- #nuclear has so very many disadvantages as we well know. In Europe, #wind and #solar generated more electricity than fossil fuel in 2025, providing 30% of pan-EU power, demonstrating just how rapidly a #renewables power system can move.

In 2025, more power was generated worldwide from renewable energy than from coal, and 91% of new renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Each year nuclear adds only as much net global power capacity as renewables add every two days.

Renewables grew to almost 50% of global electricity capacity in 2025 after solar boost www.reuters.com/business/ene...
