Emissions from transport fuels fell 5% in Jan-Sep, driven by electric vehicles, economic structural shifts and public transportation, a very impressive result. Total oil consumption increased slightly regardless as chemicals production surged.

"Fossil demand has been flat for industrial energy since 2014, for buildings since 2018, for road transport since 2019, & may peak for electricity this year. 2/3 of countries have already seen peak fossil demand in end-use sectors, & half the world has seen a peak in fossil fuels for electricity."

The annual slidedeck from Kingsmill Bond and the Ember Futures team unpacks how electrotech is rewriting the economics and geopolitics of energy.

Next year BYD in Europe will probably go (way) over 200K
Bizarre thought (that’s more than half of what several German OEMs are doing globally (BEV))
But okay, this is not pure BEV - EU Commission doing double harm?!

China is ramping up exports of EVs, batteries, solar, wind and other clean technologies in high demand
Meanwhile, the US is trying to strongarm its trading partners to buy oil and other fossil fuel products they increasingly don’t need and don’t want

Batteries are coming to Europe. Earlier this year Europe’s largest battery storage site went live at Blackhillock, Scotland.
The facility has a capacity of 300MW/600MWh.
Much larger batteries are under development: A huge 1 GW / 4 GWh system is being constructed in Jänschwalde, Germany.

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

One of the most self-destructive things Germany could do is to reverse the green transition now.
Renewables expansion has been on a tear but Germany has seen reversals before, unfortunately. And the country still does not have oil or gas and isn’t getting any anytime soon (ever).
