Norway has no plans for a premature exit from oil and gas production, said prime minister Jonas Gahr Store on Wednesday, after agreeing to set down a commission that will evaluate the future of Norway’s most important sector. montelnews.com/news/b028607...
Norway to continue oil, gas EU exports despite re-evaluation – PM
“We will sell oil and gas from the Norwegian shelf as long as there is demand for it in Europe. Now the EU has decided not to take any gas from Russia from 2027, so Norwegian gas becomes even more imp...

We need to stop calling it a ‘peace plan,’ even with sarcastic quotes around it. Call it the US-Kremlin plan or similar.
‘US-Kremlin plan’ shames the US and makes it sound deeply unappealing to the broader US and European publics.

I dag vedtok vi unntak fra reglene om å lyssette rådhuset, med begrunnelsen: det er 28 år siden sist!
Vel, jeg gjør oppmerksom på at Norge har kvalifisert seg til hvert eneste fotball-VM siden 1991. Det er bare herrelandslaget som ikke har fått det til på 28 år.
Gratulerer til gutta med VM kvalik!

A mistake in the capacity allocation between Sweden’s two northernmost spot power market bidding zones pushed spot prices for Thursday evening deep into negative territory and also affected prices in neighbouring Norway. montelnews.com/news/4f11a0c...
Swedish TSO error pushes power prices into negative territory
Swedish TSO error left >1,000MW unallocated between SE1–SE2, plunging spot prices into deep negatives and rippling into Norway – lows near EUR -95/MWh.

Just recorded a pod on solar+storage and holy shit y'all, if you are not tracking this market on a daily basis, you have no idea how wild it is. The global average price of a battery pack fell 40% *from 2023 to 2024*. That dropped the LCOE of a solar+storage plant by 22%. In a year!

Nok et mageplask fra NRK. De gode grunnene til at vi betaler for dette over skatteseddelen blir færre. Utelukkende grunnet deres egen mangel på dømmekraft.
- At både NRK og TV 2 risikerer å påvirke valgresultatet så direkte med sine redaksjonelle valg, er ingen liten sak, heller ikke når det «bare» er underholdning.
Har ikke NRK lært noenting?

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analysed the cost of solar in 2004.
Today, building a fence with solar panels can be cheaper than using wood.
