Agrivoltaic project in China aims to reverse desertification

#Trump #tarrifs forcing #Pakistan to divert hard earned cash reserves to the american regime.

Naked attempt to pause Pak's exemplary #EnergyTransition, and force us to buy American oil in a deal to have the tarrifs removed.

Why couldn't they offer us solar panels instead? Oh wait.

We have a huge American hangover. Its past time we tried "balancing" between the US and China and rework our policies to reflect a multipolar world.

#EV roll out in #Pakistan is accelerating so fast companies are clashing over distributing rights in the race to the market

https://profit.pakistantoday.com.pk/2025/04/13/dongfeng-box-ev-launched-twice-in-two-months-in-pakistan-as-distributors-clash-over-rights/

Most are #Chinese EVs, but theres a smattering of Korean & Japanese manufacturers collectively bringing tens of models to the country beginning this year

Coupled with the #Solar revolution, seems Pak might beat most of the G20 at green rollout this decade lol

Germany should provide time frame for fossil gas exit to give industry investment certainty – IEA

Sometimes the most hopeful news gets drowned out by the noise: In 2024, clean electricity generation, quietly surged past 40% for the first time since the 1940s. Led by solar’s explosive growth, this isn’t just progress—it’s disruption in motion. The fossil era is fading. #EnergyTransition #Hope

Germany's needs and costs for grid management down in 2024 – network agency

"Doing the research, looking at the long history of disinformation it was really chilling to read reports from climate science teams that were reporting to the #FossilFuels industry that if we continue with these emissions & pumping CO2 into the atmosphere, it threatens global habitability!"

https://www.podcastics.com/episode/352139/link/

"As a former teacher teaching science curriculum, it mentioned #ClimateChange but the connection to the fossil fuel industry which provides the fuels, which are then burned, which then causes the carbon emissions, and that's what's climbing and causing climate change, that connection was missing."

Planned electricity grid investments fall short of expansion needs – EU Court of Auditors

"It needs to be in the public sphere & we need to get corporate #FossilFuel influence out. We need our governments to step up on this with full transparency and accountability to really address the trajectory we're on and the critical need to change course. It's URGENT."

Tesla is a brand built on good will and practically no competition. Now the good will has been spent and the competition is accelerating, raising new challenges for Tesla's in the energy storage business as well as its cars.

"The Alberta government's 2024 curriculum appears to have been developed with #BigOil involvement, directing teachers to discuss the benefits of #OilAndGas & their role in Alberta's economy. A recent report found an industry funded nonprofit lobbies to include this content in the curriculum."

If you're paying attention to Australian politics at all, you're hearing a massive load of anti-transition, far-right propaganda being amplified by a gullible/corrupt media. If you want the real story on what government is doing in its #energytransition and why it's the right strategy, listen to this!

Extremely smart graph choice for illustrating the value of building solar and batteries even tho it might seem like it should be more expensive to have as addition to FF: https://electrotechrevolution.substack.com/p/renewables-allow-us-to-pay-less-not

NB there's a calculator tool linked from post that generates those charts. #dataviz #energytransition

#climateDiary
This came into my timeline from AP but it doesn’t tell the whole story, and we should definitely tell the whole story.

Which seems to be that there isn’t an #energyTransition.

There is a very good FT article from last month which does a much better job of painting a nuanced picture and has this to say about China:

“Instead of replacing coal, clean energy is being layered on top of an entrenched reliance on fossil fuels”

More on that in following posts
