Looks like no jurisdiction in Australia is safe from increases in electricity charges and tariffs. After SA, the renewable energy powerouse, lifted the cost of its electricity supply, Taswegians are next on the list of those paying more even as Aurora supply is a State Govt monopoly. Unfortunately, the article fails to account for the rise in electricity costs and leaves it up to the reader to find that out elsewhere — great Job #ABC… NOT. I’m not in TAS so I’ve not bothered.
Of note TAS Feed-in Tariffs look a real bounty compared to suppliers in other states where FIT keep getting lower each year:
“ Those with solar panels will receive a 5.6 per cent bump in their rate, though, with the feed-in tariff increasing to 9.276c/kWh. This increase follows average rises of 2 per cent last year, and a 0.5 per cent price rise for 2024-25.”Read here:

The frequency of power outages in the USA reflects the country's social structure as much as it does its climate:
>> According to one analysis, the United States has more power outages than any other developed country...Most Americans—about 68 percent—obtain their electricity through distribution systems managed by investor-owned utilities. By nature, an investor-owned utility is beholden to both its customers and its shareholders, and while customers may prioritize reliable power requiring expensive new equipment, shareholders are generally interested in profit. <<

The Supreme Court has allowed Adani Power’s appeal against a 2019 Gujarat High Court order on customs duty levied on electricity supplied from SEZ to DTA at its Mundra power plant. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/sc-allows-customs-duty-exemption-to-adani-power-for-electricity-taken-from-gujarat-sez-dfadjho5?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #AdaniPower #SupremeCourt #SEZ #CustomsDuty #ElectricitySupply

An interesting article called The Gardening Electricity Handbook: https://branch.climateaction.tech/issues/issue-9/the-gardening-electricity-handbook/ about making electricity using "microbial fuel cells"
There's a PDF to download with instructions on how to make your own.
No mention of #SolarPunk, but it definitely qualifies!

Quite a good video about power requirements for new #DataCenters in the US for #AI etc, and how 50% the new infrastructure for it is being paid by residential consumers, even though their usage has flatlined: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN6BEUA4jNU

i understood only about one umpteenth of this, but i get the gist (i think)
some more about the future of electricity supply — probably as significant a security issue as relying on the usa to come to our rescue…While the use of intermittent energy sources doesn’t cause power outages, lack of inertia makes it easier for them to spread. As Western countries continue to go full steam ahead on building out wind and solar capacity, policymakers are yet to face-up to these trade-offs or their financially painful mitigations.

Yasno's CEO says power outages will be shorter on weekends. He expects longer outages in summer due to air conditioning usage and even worse situation in winter. #PowerOutages #ElectricitySupply

Ukrainians were not warned about the power outage in advance because the consumption unexpectedly increased, according to YASNO CEO Serhiy Kovalenko. He predicts that a full "blackout" is not expected. #Ukraine #ElectricitySupply

No need for power outages across the country, the situation is under control, says Shmyhal. Due to a massive missile attack on the energy infrastructure, there are problems with electricity supply in some regions, but there is no need for power outages across the country.

Ukraine plans to export a record amount of electricity to 5 countries, reaching 13,264 MW·h today, with a maximum capacity of up to 716 MW per hour. The export will go to Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Moldova. The operator notes that the export is possible only if there is no deficit in the energy system. #Ukraine #electricitysupply

I rather expect 'can' should be read as 'could', ie so many pre-conditions would have to be met before (great news!) the UK achieves a reliable etc #decarbonised electricity system by 2035?Now we just need breatheable air, an unpolluted water supply, food to feed the world....
