Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with 24GW/120GWh of storage (5 hrs at av demand)
Results:
Last week: 99.7% RE

Progress thrives when we stop waiting for permission. “Permissionless” explores how breakthroughs happen when we challenge gatekeepers, think differently, and act on bold ideas. It’s a (free) book about turning frustration into momentum.

@seanonolennon.bsky.social come on Sean: where’s nuance? And living capacity of understanding; that’s a lot of strong ruling class apologia. Bizarre to see direct classist thin thought from someone with those two last names.

This is fascinating. Definitely worth a read.
Imagine these kinds of ideas being introduced and explored during autism assessments instead of the deficit based approaches we have now.
