Comments are welcome!

🤩🤩🤩Overly excited to be heading to the second Swiss conference on #decentralized #renewable #energy as part of @sweet-edge.bsky.social. Looking forward to all the discussions on how to increase the share of renewables in Switzerland and what are the implications for cross-border electricity trade

Make science more collegial: why the time for ‘adversarial collaboration’ has come Bringing together proponents of rival theories to test their ideas against each other can advance science — but only if all sides can accept that they might be wrong.

Compared to the single price zone, splitting Germany in five zones will lead electricity wholesale prices to
-increase in the South by <3% and in the West by <1%
-decrease in the North by > 10-16%
As network cost will also drop, impact on electricity cost in the South/West should be rather marginal.

NOAA Datasets Will Soon Disappear - Eos NOAA has quietly reported that they will soon decommission 14 datasets, products, and catalogs related to earthquakes and marine, coastal, and estuary science.

Here is an article and a list of NOAA datasets expected to end and be unavailable in the next few weeks. Please make sure you get in and download what you need!!

The AR7 outlines are public following country-level inputs at IPCC-62 in China. www.ipcc.ch/site/assets/.... Looking at the WGI outline, it's pretty consistent with what what came out of the scoping meeting. All chapters present, with the same focus areas. Short thread:

Cover page of the scientific article "Europe becomes pro-nuclear? Drivers of public support for nuclear energy in six EU countries after the energy crisis of 2022".

Four charts showing the results of a survey on 4800 Europeans about their support for different energy technologies.

Europe becomes pro-nuclear?

Not quite. ~50% supports it, except in PL 70% and ES, IT 40%.

A survey of 4,800 shows "a marked increase in support for #nuclear" compared to before the 2022 energy crisis.

Higher support among men and right-wing.
