The hedge that paid off: How Pakistan’s solar boom is shielding it from the Hormuz crisis Analysis by Renewables First and the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air

Canada needs to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels, and toward low-cost #renewables during this energy crisis - and learn from countries like Pakistan already saving billions by moving to solar.

Hungarian voters did not like this photo op!

Meddling in foreign elections and losing is doubly dumb. It's also wrong.

US siding with authoritarian, post liberal democratic parties like Fidesz and AFD is another geopolitical disaster.

How much agrivoltaic shading is enough Spanish researchers found that semi-transparent silicon PV greenhouses boosted tomato fruit weight by 25% while generating 726.8 kWh over two seasons, outperforming cadmium telluride PV and shaded controls. The PV-Si system balanced sunlight, temperature, and energy, showing strong agrivoltaic potential.

Europeans want more renewables, even if it increases energy bills Public enthusiasm for clean energy comes as the Iran war exposes Europe’s vulnerability to global oil and gas markets.

Europeans want more renewables now!

The want more, even if RE costs more.

RE does not.

New wind, solar and battery plants are quicker to build than any alternatives and often cost less than new gas, even without counting large fuel costs for gas or coal.

2025 solar added capacity up 11% to a new record high!

2026 will be even more painful for petrostate supporters and anti-RE zealots than the record clean energy years of 2025 and 2024 were to them.

Trump says U.S. will blockade Strait of Hormuz after Iran peace talks fail Trump said the U.S. blockade will stop Iran from policing the strait and benefiting economically while the rest of the world suffers from its closure.

I see we have moved on from an economic crisis that is mostly Trump's fault to one that is entirely his fault.

How this is going to make Iran knuckle under is beyond me and also sounds like it is beyond this regime. One thing is sure, this oil shock won't be ending.
