Renewable energy has the lowest cost overruns when comparing infrastructure projects; nuclear the highest.
BUT WHAT ABOUT WHEN IT ISN'T WINDY!?? Now I've got your attention, you'll want to read about @theCCCuk big new report on exactly this question (TL;DR low-carbon flexibility) THREAD carbonbrief.org/ccc-heres-how-…
I was absolutely astonished to discover this: the solar supply chain we need to reach net zero is ALREADY UNDER CONSTRUCTION, at least if you go by what polysilicon producers are up to: bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
-= The Myth That Renewables Need Weeks Of Battery Storage =- 🧵 This one has been circling a lot recently, so I might as well nip it in the bud. It goes like this: "To save the planet with renewables, you need weeks of battery storage to keep the lights on. Impossible!"
High electricity prices mean that many renewable generators are now actually paying money *back* to suppliers. This means that in 3 months from October, the net effect of green and social levies on bills is likely to be just £11 for a typical household. [6/7]
Solar power is cheap because markets work and private enterprise makes the world better. Why are Conservatives attacking it? spectator.co.uk/article/sunak-… via @spectator

The proposed go-ahead for 6 new oil & gas fields in N Sea would represent stunning retreat from pro-climate action posturing before COP26 It's almost as if UK at the time was bullshitting the world THREAD 🧵 1/6 telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/…
Only one country – the Gambia – is taking climate action in line with 1.5C, says @climateactiontr US, EU, DE, JP "insufficient" CN, IN, AU "highly insufficient" Notably, the UK's target is "1.5C compatible", but it lacks policies to match the ambition climateactiontracker.org/press/analysis…
The decrease in the cost of utility scale solar over the last decade is pretty incredible (expand picture)
Another wonderful creation on the corner of Casino Avenue. @hernehillforum
Seguimos con la construcción de refugios para reptiles repartidos en el área de ocupación de la planta #TalayuelaSolar y sus inmediaciones☀️ Se trata de uno de los planes medioambientales que se están llevando a cabo para proteger la #biodversidad del entorno 🦎🌳
The drop in renewable costs over the past decade has really been amazing. Wind and solar went from two of the most expensive ways to generate electricity to two of the cheapest. Sure, there's more to the story than just these numbers, but still, a marvel. ourworldindata.org/cheap-renewabl…
Statkraft & @SolarCentury = 💛! We are thrilled to announce the acquisition of solar pioneer Solarcentury, which positions Statkraft as a leading developer in the European #solar market ☀ statkraft.com/newsroom/news-…
We're getting closer and closer to the day #TalayuelaSolar produces its first KWh of #cleanelectricity. The project will generate approximately 600GWh/ year and will prevent more than 170,000 tons of CO2 from releasing into the atmosphere.
Solar is crowned "king of the world's electricity markets" in @IEA #WEO20 report 👑☀️ Report shows that #solar is "cheapest electricity in history", set to become Number 1 electricity capacity in Europe by 2025. Read more ⤵️ #EUGreenDeal #ClimateNeutralEU
You want to talk clean energy subsidies? Why isn't every crappy little fossil fuel developer required to escrow funds to seal or decommission wells if they go bankrupt? Let's get rid of *all* energy subsidies and price in *all* externalities. That's it. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
We are relieved to see a more realistic LCOE for large-scale solar. This will hopefully drive a more positive environment for #solar, a recognition of how we can underpin electrification & a de-carbonised economy while achieving lower electricity pricing. carbonbrief.org/wind-and-solar…
OMG @beisgovuk has published a new cost of generation report. Lot to digest - but the headline? Renewables are cheap and getting cheaper. gov.uk/government/pub…
Longstanding #nuclear power supporter James Lovelock now says it looks like wind and #solar ‘are the answer to humanity’s problems’ theguardian.com/environment/20…
