Good discussion between two leading climate scientists. Stefan Rahmstorf gives a good overiew of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the beginning. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJ1G...

It´s sad to see Meyer Burger continuing to struggle. I´ve lived near their HQ in Switzerland (interviewed there years ago) and been following their drive for PV production in Europe. We should have more PV manufacturing capacity in Europe for the domestic market. www.pv-magazine.com/2024/11/18/m...

Impressive to see the rise of solar+storage in Australia over the last years- they seem to have a full pipeline of grid-storage projects. Blythe battery (footprint 350m x 150m, 238.5 MW and 477 MWh) in SA just being commissioned. I hope we see more in Europe too! reneweconomy.com.au/south-austra...

This is such a cool platform. I really like the use of filled circles to show current capacity levels.

85.1% renewable energy, and it just kept working. reneweconomy.com.au/milestone-wo...

Space based solar power: This is still at a low TLR stage, and such a long list of open q‘s (transmission, public acceptance, launch costs, service life,….). But would be amazing to see. And 10x lower launch costs will hopefully spawn more such ideas soon. www.newcivilengineer.com/latest/space...

Hopefully this will come true : www.solarwirtschaft.de/2024/10/02/v... A 5x increase (7GW) in battery capacity in a short time-frame (2years)

The @iea.org report came out in October of this year already but remains a good read (even if just the executive summary). What struck me is that solar PV will be the main driver of renewables, making up 80% of added RE capacity globally. www.iea.org/reports/rene...
