2025 to 2030 will be remembered as the half decade that transformed global energy. Be part of the solution, not the problem.

Time to rethink the energy debate.
It is time to rethink the debate on the future of energy. This is a technology revolution driven by physics, economics and geopolitics, and galvanised by China.

Jesse Peltan on X has been showing this graph for a while. He says a 600W PV panel will provide 1000 kWh/year. This gets you to top of the low energy countries. I ran the numbers and this is right. 1/n

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: 100% RE
Last 168 weeks: 98.5% RE (1/n)

Last week: 100% RE
