Aardig wat negatieve stroomprijzen in de Europese landen deze maand. Na Hongarije heeft dit jaar ook Griekenland zich bij deze trend aangesloten.
De laagste gem. stroomprijzen zijn te vinden in Spanje, Portugal en Frankrijk.

Continuing to insist on technological purity & policies that drive up costs, especially for the poor and vulnerable, but even for the tired and inflation-battered middle classes, is not a viable plan. Not any more. And that is why I'm calling for a #PragmaticClimateReset.

Climate change is a by-product of progress in the same way as obesity is a by-product of nutrition. For goodness sakes, it's the 21st century! We have the technology to enjoy progress without trashing the planet.

The primary energy fallacy is the idea that all primary energy from fossil fuels must be replaced with equivalent amount of clean energy.

BUT: Not necessary because conversion losses don’t need to be replaced. 2/3 of all primary energy is lost as waste heat. knowledge.energyinst.org/new-energy-w...

YouTube flagged our @cleaninguppod.bsky.social documentary on #ProjectBo as political advertising. 😬

Using #solar power to help save babies' lives is NOT political! 🌞
