Yesterday's Texas grid ⚡️: Heavy reliance on fossil fuels! 60.3% "dirty" generation (694,509 MW) powered the state, while carbon-free sources contributed 39.5%. A little storage helped too (2890 MW)! 😬 #ERCOT #TexasGrid #EnergyMix
An energy mix matters. The math isn’t mathing without nuclear.

Main Theme 3: The broader energy landscape demands a complex mix. While some argue nuclear energy is superior, many advocate for a blend of wind, solar, and nuclear. Crucial elements include robust energy storage solutions & grid stability. #EnergyMix 5/5
Hydrogen surely has a space in the #energymix? The issue today is that the majority of hydrogen has a #carbonfootprint attached to it by how it is produced via electrolysis..

[5/5] La Chine refuse les accusations de concurrence déloyale et affirme rendre la transition possible pour tous. L’Europe, confrontée à une domination chinoise structurelle, pourrait devoir imposer localement des coentreprises. #geography #energymix #energytransition #China
[4/5] Si 80% de la hausse de la demande électrique est couverte par des énergies dites "propres", les émissions chinoises (12 Gt CO₂ en 2024) restent très élevées. Mais une étude finlandaise montre un recul de 1% sur un an. #geography #energymix #energytransition #China
[3/5] L’État soutient toute la filière, du solaire à la voiture électrique. CATL et BYD dominent les batteries mondiales (53% à eux deux). Des villes comme Hefei (Anhui) attirent des géants industriels avec l’aide de fonds publics. #geography #energymix #energytransition #China
[2/5] Grâce aux plans quinquennaux, la Chine a planifié sa sortie du charbon. Depuis 2010, la part du charbon est passée de 70% à 58% de l’énergie consommée, même si elle en brûle encore plus que tout le reste de la planète réuni. #geography #energymix #energytransition #China
[3/3] Malgré ces progrès, les énergies fossiles restent stables : en juin, elles assurent encore 23,6% de l’électricité européenne, le gaz progressant face à la baisse de l’hydroélectricité. La transition reste fragile malgré la montée du solaire. #geography #solarpower #energymix
[2/3] Treize pays européens ont battu leur record de production solaire. En parallèle, le charbon chute à 6,1% du mix électrique, son plus bas niveau historique. Même l’Allemagne et la Pologne, grands pays charbonniers, voient leur part baisser fortement. #geography #solarpower #energymix
[1/3] AFP - En juin 2025, l’énergie solaire est devenue pour la première fois la première source d’électricité en Europe, avec 22,1% de la production, devant le nucléaire (21,8%) et l’éolien (15,8%). Ce record s’explique par un fort ensoleillement et l’essor du photovoltaïque. #geography #energymix
