Poland To Lower Fuel Prices Amid West Asia Tension WARSAW, March 27 (Bernama-Xinhua) — Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Thursday announced a series of measures aimed at lowering fuel prices amid soaring global energy costs triggered by the West Asia conflict, reported Xinhua. Poland will cut value-added tax (VAT) on fuel from 23 per cent to eight per cent and reduce excise duties to the minimum level allowed under European Union rules, Tusk said at a press conference. Fuel prices are expected to fall by approximately 1.2 zloty (US$0.32) per litre across all fuel types, he added. The government will also introduce maximum fuel prices per litre, to […]

EU Council: the ETS stands firm, but the way is open for changes The competitiveness summit turns into a debate on the Third Gulf War and energy, with Von der Leyen promising: “The next ETS review will address matters relevant to Italy”

The European Council adjourned during the night of 19–20 March. The war in Iran and Europe’s energy vulnerability dominate the agenda www.renewablematter.eu/en/eu-counci...

Data centers are eyeing the collar counties. They’re drawing pushback from residents across the region. As data center proposals get further into the municipal process, surrounding communities are often pushing back against projects that have regional impacts.

#EnergyCost: "The projects have stoked pushback from residents, who are worried about the strain and potential cost the data centers will have on the power grid and on water supplies..."

Infographic comparing the cost of driving 500km for various model vehicles - including EVs and ICE vehicles.

This is a NZ analysis but equally relevant to the AU market.

The black part of the bar for EVs is the energy cost and the remainder includes loan repayments and road user charges.

#Data-Centers driving fossil fuel demand, fracked gas in PA, exploiting subsidies & fast-tracking permits. Jobs over-promised. Single data center uses as much electricity as 10000's of homes operating 24/7. Communities organizing to stop projects.

Why your power bill is spiking faster than a nearby data center’s As electricity prices climb, an unusual disconnect is emerging between what regular people pay — and what data centers pay.

Data centers and factories are gobbling electricity. Households are eating the cost.

New AI reduces climate prediction uncertainty by >50%. The timeline: 1.5°C by ~2035 and 2.0°C by ~2057.🚨 The AI tools provide a timeline, but is the energy cost of the tech worth it?

The price increases are forecast to be particularly high in New South Wales, where the AER has determined that residential customers on default plans will pay between 8.3% and 9.7% more for their power. So shop around for cheaper prices in NSW. #energycost #retailpricing

The standing charge is a con. Why is this allowed to rise so much? This is what the Gov need to look at. Until Oct I was on a 3 yr fixed, yes I was lucky. The daily charge has tripled on my new electricity contract. This penalises those who try to use less electricity #Energycost

The biggest single problem with energy costs is the daily charge rate. It’s a con. This is what Labour need to discuss with Ofgem as it penalises those who try to use less energy. #EnergyCost

My electricity bills:
Last month: ¥69(£ 7.5)
Rather costly even if I tried to spare to use.
What about yours? Is it also expensive ?

Unsurprisingly summer is the peak electricity consumption, almost double the winter months in the commercial sector. Yet they say its not air conditioning use 🤣 🤣 and architects keep designing glass boxes and calling them Green 🤷‍♂️ #energyuse #energycost #energysaving #greenbuilding
