THREAD: The IEA global energy review 2026

* CO2 record high, but growth nearly ground to halt
* Clean energy shaved 3bn tonnes off CO2
* Fossil-fuel power pushed into reverse
* Age of Electricity "confirmed"
* "Extraordinary" solar growth
* Batteries up 40%
* EVs up 20%

Sussex seabed shows recovery five years after trawling ban. Five years after bottom trawling was banned across more than 300 km² of seabed off southern England, early signs of ecosystem recovery are emerging. Mussel beds are re-establishing, fish populations are increasing, and conditions are […]

Spain is crushing it ⚡🇪🇸

Solar is delivering the equivalent of 27 nuclear plants during the day. Pumped hydro stores ~3 nuclear plants worth. Batteries already stepping in.

This isn’t a generation problem anymore. It’s storage scale.

Energy scarcity → energy timing. #BESS #Solar

New metric shows renewables are 53% cheaper than nuclear power A new metric for assessing total system costs puts a least-cost mix of offshore wind and solar at about €46 ($54.20)/MWh in a future climate-neutral energy system for Denmark. Researchers tell <b>pv ...

En ny vetenskaplig studie visar att förnybar elproduktion är 53% billigare än kärnkraft när de totala systemkostnaderna vägs in. Kan någon berätta det för Ebba Busch?

World’s largest wind farm is getting plugged in Hornsea 3 – a vast, offshore, wind farm project – has reached Norfolk, as renewables cut costs and reduce reliance on gas

Latest details on the largest wind farm in the world – to power 3.3 million homes – as it prepares to connect to the grid.

As renewables saved the UK £1bn in gas imports in March, Reform UK is still saying it wants to scrap Net Zero.

Fun fact: every five months, the world builds as much solar power generation as all the nuclear power that has ever been built. And still some people dream of a ”nuclear renaissance”. That train has left the station long ago…

David Jonstad: Skrattretande att vi snart skulle återgå till business as usual Optimismen som dominerat i väst går på en nit i Hormuzsundet.

”Normalitetsbias är en kognitiv snedvridning som gör att vi underskattar risken för att framtiden plötsligt kan bli något helt annat än vi tänkt oss och när den stora krisen är ett faktum står vi oförberedda, både mentalt och praktiskt.”

It’s important to understand that today it is nuclear, coal and fossil gas power that are the ”alternative energy sources”. Countries like Sweden and the US that are actively stopping renewable electricity production are extreme outliers in a world rapidly going renewable!

The Netherlands just launched a platform in the middle of the North Sea that converts wind electricity into green hydrogen fuel without the electricity ever touching land.
The NortH2 offshore hydrogen platform sits 200 kilometers off the Dutch coast, directly connected by underwater power cables.

‘A national scandal’: trawlers scour seabeds of supposedly protected UK waters ‘Precious ocean life is being pushed to the brink’ say campaigners, arguing that overfished marine areas are ‘protected only on paper’

Regardless of the issue, it's always the same story: commercial interests allowed to ride roughshod over everything and everyone else. Faced with the urgent need for action, successive governments twiddle their thumbs.

UK to give homes ‘free energy’ instead of turning off wind turbines Europe’s outdated and under-invested energy grid means huge amounts of renewable energy are wasted every year.

University of Oxford : maximising oil and gas extraction here would only save UK households up to £82 (€95) per year. A UK fully powered by renewable energy, would save households up to £441 (€510) a year on energy bills.

Björn Wiman: Det är klaustrofobiskt att leva under ockupation av idioter Kriget mot Iran släpper ut lika mycket koldioxid som 84 länder på ett år. Allt börjar med historien om hur oljan kom upp ur marken.

Bombkriget mot Iran handlar om att stärka den fossila fascismen. De som betalar priset är de civila i regionen och de fattigaste och mest utsatta. De som tjänar är oljespekulanter, vapenhandlare och Trumps krets av kleptokrater

"In response, the Cuban government is accelerating a shift toward renewable energy, betting on large-scale solar and wind projects backed by financing and technology from China."

Trump is vigorously pushing the entire world into China's arms.

Europe spent years debating whether the energy transition was affordable.

Spain quietly answered the question: gas now sets its electricity price in only 7% of hours.

Strategic autonomy doesn’t arrive via summit communiqués. It’s built in advance — in wind farms, solar parks, and grid investment
