Very useful and important project
Daring project by my former colleague @maartensta.bsky.social, in his spare time: compiling a European grid capacity (scarcity) map! www.gridcapacitymaps.eu
Still a challenge to access the detailed information, due to language and other barriers, but a very useful project indeed.

Worth a watch:

Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

"BP, Exxon & Shell, who have recently noted their exit from renewables, are also withdrawing from core oil & gas production investments too.

Over 50% of their operating cashflow is now going to shareholders, not explorers or construction crews."
Leaving the battlefield: oil companies are quitting renewables, yes, but also quitting energy
The future of energy is clearly being left to others

LFG
Europe’s choice is clear.

To put science at the heart of its economy.

To become the home of scientific freedom and collaboration.

And to welcome talent from all over the world.

I’m glad to present the first elements of our Choose Europe Initiative.

Solar is about 40% of CAISO's (California) electricity at 9 in the morning of December 1, 2024. Gas is about 23%.

Solar is generating more electricity than gas in both Texas & California this December morning.

Few, if anyone, thought that would happen 5 years ago.
