No energy source in 10,000 years of human history has scaled like solar. From 100 to 2,000 TWh in just 11 years—faster than coal, oil, nuclear, or wind. This isn’t just exponential growth—it’s a civilizational phase shift. The fastest, cleanest energy transition ever. ⚡☀️ #Solar #EnergyTransformation

Fellow EV owner Harald Murphy keeps smashing the range anxiety myth—completing another 13,360 km lap around Australia in 9 days (202 hrs) in his Tesla Model Y RWD!⚡🇦🇺 From Perth to the Top End, across QLD, down the east coast & back via SA & WA. Pure electric endurance. #EV #Tesla #Roadtrip #AUSYtour

Greece didn’t just taper coal—it evicted it. In 10yrs, coal collapsed from 50% to 6%, while solar/wind surged to 43%. This isn’t transition—it’s transformation. If Greece can leapfrog to clean power, anyone can. The S-curve is here. Blink and the fossil era is gone. ⚡🇬🇷 #EnergyTransition #Solar

PHEV sales are collapsing in key markets in 2025: down to just 51 units in Norway (April), shrinking fast in Denmark, and losing ground to BEVs in China. Consumers are ditching complexity for simplicity. BEVs are cheaper, cleaner, and just better. KISS. ⚡🔋 #EVs #PHEV #Disruption #KISS #BEV

Great to see Europe pushing forward with EV growth—also led by BEVs, not PHEVs. ⚡️Despite Tesla’s slump, plug-ins surged 33% YoY in April, with BEVs up 26%. May momentum continues as Chinese brands flood the market. ICEs are fading—BEVs are now the main act, not the warm-up. 🇪🇺🚗 #EV #BEV #Disruption

BYD’s commercial EV sales just exploded—up 531% YoY in May! From 4,391 to 27,726 units. Electric buses, trucks, vans—flooding the market while Western OEMs are still holding strategy meetings, drafting their demise on chalkboards. Bonkers growth, but all part of a plan. ⚡🚛 #EV #Disruption #Electric

China’s May NEV sales are in—growth Western automakers can only dream of. BYD moved 204k BEVs (+39.6% YoY) while PHEVs slipped, with Geely nipping at their heels. BEVs are racing ahead, driven by tech, policy, & dense charging. The shift to pure electric is well advanced here.⚡ #EV #BEV #Disruption

There’s no Seagull killer outside China—nothing matches BYD’s $10K EV with 300–400 km range, fast charging, and solid tech. Western brands are years behind or stuck in vaporware. Tariffs won’t stop it—only building better EVs will. BYD didn’t catch up, they leapfrogged. 🐦⚡ #BYD #EVrevolution #LFP

BYD’s rollout of 15,000 megawatt-level chargers across China is a game-changer. At up to 1,000 kW each, they dwarf Tesla’s ~12,000 stalls in China. This isn’t just fast charging—it’s ultra-fast, reshaping EV norms. BYD’s not just building cars, it’s building the future. ⚡🇨🇳 #EV #BYD

The more Superchargers open to non-Teslas, the more confident EV drivers feel to hit the road. It’s a game-changer—reducing range anxiety, boosting uptake, and unlocking the true magic of EVs: spontaneous, silent, smooth road trips. Nothing else compares. #EVLife #RoadTripReady #LFP #EVs #Lithium

EV battery prices dropped 20% in 2024—the biggest fall since 2017. China now makes 80% of cells, driving prices below $60/kWh for some LFP packs. Hybrids still cost more per kWh. While this boosts EV affordability, the IEA warns low mineral prices may risk future supply. #EV #Battery #Lithium #LFP

Changan claims its new solid-state battery will deliver up to 1,500 km (932 mi) of range, hitting prototype cars by end-2025, mass production by 2027. Energy density? 400 Wh/kg. Sounds huge—but nothing's been independently verified yet. Hype or history in the making? ⚡🚗 #EV #BatteryTech #SolidState

In just 5 years, China flipped the battery game. LFP—born in the US, perfected by BYD & CATL—now powers most EVs. Safe, cheap, cobalt & nickel-free. Western analysts missed it. Policy + pragmatism > hype. Edison’s dream was realized… in China, not Detroit. ⚡🇨🇳 #LFP #EVrevolution #BYD #CATL #Lithium
