Good thread from Dave about the new IEA "Current Policies Scenario" making a lot of the headlines.
Here is a very quick mock-up I made of what this scenario assumes for solar PV additions through to 2035, with historical context.
I'll let you decide whether this seems likely.

Europe’s Solar Boom Is Pushing Power Grids to The Limit
Solar is set to become the largest green energy source globally, the question now for Europe is whether it can revamp its grid fast enough to prevent another dramatic blackout.

Putin might negotiate to end the war only if Ru is losing it. And even then, he might reject an off-ramp because he thinks he has a chance to turn things around. He sure as hell isn't negotiating in good faith now. Just wasting time and sabotaging aid to Ukraine.
