If the UK and EU don’t scale up the clean tech industry now, they’ll never compete with China in the next 50 Years. This is why we HAVE to continue - but drop the unrealistic 2030 goal 👇

Seeing the light ... Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania (all former Soviet republics, now in the EU & NATO) just cut all ties with the Russian electricity grid — in an endeavour to block Russia's ability to geopolitically blackmail them via the electricity system. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Fossil fuels will account for more than three-quarters of fuel used by airlines beyond 2040 — according to the British government’s own projections — undermining Rachel Reeves’ claims that new technologies will turn aviation green www.ft.com/content/78c3...

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people. Sound efficient? HT @ellenmacarthurfdn.bsky.social

Think about all the things that can fit when we just stop surrendering most of our urban space to cars. Not just other ways of getting around. That’s just the tip of the iceberg. Urban life can fit. Before & after street pedestrianization of Rue Rambuteau in Paris. HT to @emmanuelspv.bsky.social

Proud to have contributed to this paper "The evolution of lithium-ion battery recycling" led by Yan Wang's group at WPI that appears in the first issue of Nature Clean Energy Reviews. www.nature.com/articles/s44... The group brought together a really great range of perspectives.

I'm looking for online sources for purchasing #sustainable products. Things like household products to start. With coming uncertainty I want to invest more in things that will last and reduce my pollution impact. #ZeroWaste #PlasticFree

This is a great illustration of what the new energy order looks like: ➡️large to small ➡️centralised to decentralised ➡️large grids to microgrids ➡️one-directional to bi-directional ➡️passive consumers to active prosumers Of course this is simplified & highly stylised but it shows direction of travel.

Very interesting new paper saying what I've been saying in my talks on green H2 for a while - meeting targets for the bare minimum use cases for H2 is already very challenging and people need to focus on them, more ambitious uses like home heating and most transport are likely impossible. (1/3)

Like smoking a cigarette, driving a giant SUV/pickup endangers anyone nearby. The narrative power of secondhand smoke galvanized the anti-tobacco movement in the 1980s – and it could do the same for car bloat today. My deep dive, in Vox 🧵 www.vox.com/future-perfe...

Electrification is the key lever to decarbonise industry. But why is take-up so low (3-4%) when it comes to process heat? It’s because of the many barriers standing in the way. Here’s how we can break through them. Read our new @regassistproj.bsky.social report👇 www.raponline.org/knowledge-ce...
