Yesterday we attended a funeral in NW Indiana. (Not ab. the funeral.)
Trees were broken and uprooted everywhere, after days of severe storms. Attendees told us they were still without power and had been for days. Gas stations, restaurants, and grocery stores were closed. Dark windows everywhere.
As we drove home, traffic was backed up. Busy intersections w/o traffic signals. People managed, haltingly.
Yes it's temporary. But eerie. Life w/o power seemed untenable.

Solar power generation in Belgium nicely followed the #eclipse (peak at 20:15 local time), leading to a generation loss of about 0.5GWh, or a bit less than 1% of the #PV generated #electricity for the entire day. Both Aug 11 and Aug 12 were entirely cloud free days. Temperatures were about 5°C higher on Aug 12, leading to an additional lower generation of 1.5GWh, accumulated during the day, with respect to Aug 11.

"India ignited a rise in new #coalmine proposals in 2025 despite a global slowdown in the number of #mine openings because of falling demand for the #fossilfuel... India plans to increase its #coal production by nearly 100m tonnes to 1.15bn tonnes in the 2025-26 fiscal year to help meet the country’s rising #demand for #electricity..."

One way of thinking about high #electricity prices in Aotearoa might be that they represent a "tax", given govt's 50% ownership of power companies. There are three problems with this: Firstly, such a "tax" is highly regressive, with the poor paying a far higher proportion of their income on electricity than the rich. Secondly, rich investors in electricity gentailers get exorbitant returns, courtesy of the poor, and thirdly, high power prices are causing other industries to go bankrupt. #nzpol

How To Store Renewable Energy
Image credit: Pramote Polyamate via Getty Images Renewable-energy storage is important to help humanity reduce its dependence on fossil fuels such as oil and coal, which produce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that cause climate change. Harnessing the power of the sun with solar panels and utilizing wind power with wind turbines are two common ways to generate renewable energy. But the sun isn't always shining and the wind isn't always blowing when we want electricity, and […]https://onlinemarketingscoops.com/2026/08/08/how-to-store-renewable-energy/
