This is brilliant BC Hydro is improving the EV charging experience by enabling roaming with partners so that a person doesn’t need half a dozen accounts to charge their car. They can just use one account on any of the networks.

"Fossil fuels are only going to get more expensive and renewables are only going to get cheaper" is both true & something the public is already inclined to believe (or at the very least is persuadable).

China's electrification transition is dramatic, and leaving us in the dust.
So much for LNG-powered trucks! China and soon India are leapfrogging to the new. And our leaders pushing LNG and retreating on ZEVs look sad & vision-less in comparison.

China's diesel trucks shift to electric. This could change global LNG and diesel demand.
China is replacing its diesel trucks with electric models faster than expected, potentially reshaping global fuel demand and the future of heavy transport.

Good morning with good news: Poland's coal plunged from 91.1% of its electricity in June 2015 to a record low monthly share of 42.9% in June 2025!
Down 48.2 points of market share in just 10 years.
How?
Mostly Wind/Solar.

Dear PM Carney
Solar & wind power aren’t just better for the climate; they’re also less expensive today than fossil fuels at utility scale, and less harmful to people’s health
Smith killed green energies in Alberta. How is she getting away with so much harm?

Renewable energy is cheaper and healthier – so why isn’t it replacing fossil fuels faster?
Politics is just one challenge. The cost of borrowing to build wind and solar farms is another, especially in fast-growing developing countries. There are solutions.

Stop expanding polluting technologies please.
Old dirty technology like oil and gas keep is dependent on foreign owned oil companies.
Electricity is abundant, safer, cleaner and more Canadian in ownership of generation and transmission.

Mark Carney seems to think he needs permission from Exxon to impose a carbon price or GHG emissions cap (spoiler: he doesn't), but doesn't need permission from First Nations to build a new tar sands pipeline (not a spoiler: he does).
Looks like it's time to get the band back together: Ottawa, Alberta close to deal that includes tar sands pipeline to B.C. coast

NEW: California now has nearly 17,000 megawatts of battery storage – reaching one-third of the way to our 2045 goal.
We're deploying more battery storage than any state in America, building a stronger grid, cutting pollution, and securing a safer future for our nation.
