Electrification is THE dominant energy vector for the industry sector in all EU decarbonisation scenarios released by the European Commission.
The share of gas declines markedly in all scenarios.

Germany just connected its largest battery storage system—103.5 MW in Bollingstedt. Big step for grid flexibility and renewables!
Projects like this are key to a resilient, clean energy future.

I don't think anyone outside of universities, pharma and biotech, independent research institutions have any idea of what is happening right now. If you haven't sounded the alarm among your friends, family and colleagues, now is the time to do it.

The real drivers of future inflation are not just tariffs, but the climate crisis and states backing off their decarbonization efforts.

Preliminary data suggests that the global average increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration in 2024 will be a record.
Not just a little record, but 25% higher than the previous record.
(This is the global average, as opposed to Moana Loa)
