Calling out lies, half truths and deliberate ignorance.

I've had enough of those who think they can just lie and get away with it.

No DMs.
Be aware of @energywatch.bsky.social it's a cover for right wing bollocks about green energy and climate change

This is good news. It would be a mistake if Labour MPs bowed to pressure from the Tory press to oust Starmer.

Good morning with good news: Africa's solar additions in 2025 jumped 54% to 4.5 GW.

Africa likely adds ~6.9 GW of solar in 2026 and ~31 GW by 2029, and Africa's solar capacity likely exceeds its coal capacity of ~52GW. Africa's hydro is 47GW.

A few people asked for it, so I built it. Battery costs vs NEV sales. As battery pack costs fall toward ~$100/kWh & below, EV adoption doesn’t rise linearly — it inflects. Inflation & supply-chain shocks add noise, but manufacturing scale & chemistry dominate. Chart + data now live. #Bettrification

Network costs are rising as the grid expands, but analysis shows gas remains the single biggest driver of high bills, not green policies, as some politicians on the right claim.

2025–2035 is the Disruption Decade. Here’s where I explain why the transition was delayed, then compressed — and how that forced me to revise my own 2030 EV adoption projections. This isn’t ideology. It’s system math.⚡️ #Bettrification #EV #BESS #LFP #Lithium #Solar #Wind #EnergyTransition

Today, in the hellscape of California, the entire state is running almost 90% of the grid from clean energy, 78% of which is from renewables alone.

California has 39 million people, 4 million businesses, 1.2 million EVs — that’s bigger than most countries.

It can be done and is being done!
