Cooling demand soared to nearly 3 TWh this hottest July in records in Türkiye, equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of 600,000 homes ⚡
This sharp rise shows how the summer heat directly increases Türkiye’s power demand.
Each 1 °C requires about 0.77 GW of extra generation capacity.

Heat pumps are vastly more efficient than gas heating systems.
With the right policies they can also be significantly cheaper from a total cost of ownership perspective.

Scientists developed the first climate models in the late 1960s (for which the Nobel Prize in physics was recently awarded!).
How have these models held up against what happened in the real world after they were published? Surprisingly well, it turns out:
