I've seen lots of solar water heaters on roofs in #Greece, but very few #photovoltaic panels. The country must have many more sunny days than we do. Why is that? Is it because the price of the electricity from the grid is too low or because there is a lack of incentives from the government?
China installs more solar in 1 month than the total energy the US uses
China installed its highest solar power capacity for a single month in May.
back-of-the-envelope calculations, 71 GW is more power than the entire US uses (on average). This is why our electricity is, on average, 2.5-3 times more expensive. This will lead to advantages in AI, production, etc. Cheap energy = cheap everything else.
China set a global record by installing 93 GW of solar capacity in May, surpassing any other country's full-year total, though growth is expected to slow due to new regulatory changes.
Now it works the way I envisioned it: I come back with the car at the end of the day and the car is charged from the house batteries which accumulated the solar energy during the day. 👍 #evcharging #ev #ElectricVehicle #solarpower #renewables
"The foods grown included #BlueMussels and various types of seaweed, sometimes in combination with the #restoration of #OysterBeds... The resulting yields were comparable to those in calmer nearshore waters and away from other infrastructure"
Off the coasts of Belgium, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands dozens of wind farms whir away, helping Europe switch to renewable energy from fossil fuels.
China's clean energy revolution is a significant step towards a sustainable future. The scale and pace of this transition could set a precedent for other nations and significantly influence the global trajectory towards clean, renewable energy. While challenges remain, the sheer ambition of this initiative demonstrates that large-scale renewable energy adoption is achievable.
