  1. Energy efficiency / conservation is such an important part of #climateaction, and the technology is advancing! Crucial to note that collective action (via government funding for technology development & regulations) works hand in hand with 'individual' action. #electrifyeverything

    also #bigoil tries to control the #planet with #oil and eliminating all competition

    not sure if that #strategy will work with #china because #china is already off to #electrifyeverything and also just fires more #coal if the #oil and #gas is missing, it's probably fair to say it's #bigoil last big heist before completely vanishing or divesting forever

    The crazy rhing is that #electrifyeverything and #renewables have brushed by price parity some time ago and financially, they are all lower cost.

    #Fossilfuels like large SUVs and Detroits supersized pickups are propelled by a legacy marketing triumph, and now, pure disinformatiom by market players and their thinktank operatives.

  7. 🔌🚗 Electric mobility in Germany: Untapped Potential!

    Electric mobility has been slow to take off, but there are positive trends. I summarize them in the new #DIW Berlin Weekly Report, based on data collected on the #OpenEnergyTracker. (English version of a report first published in 🇩🇪 in February)

  17. Today is our #Solarversary. 9 years ago we got the panels running (just in time before the calendar year ended on our program).

    They paid for themselves (in power, tax credits, and SREC credits) in 4.5 years, as accurately predicted by our installer.

    Since then I have had $0 electric bills. This year I finally got the last item off the natural gas line and cancelled it.

    #ElectrifyEverything.

  18. I updated my electric vehicle charging maps with the latest data. Surprisingly, the number of fast charging stations in Canada and the USA has doubled in the past 18 months.

    With the charging density that now exists across Canada and the USA, you can road trip almost anywhere without any range anxiety.

  19. BC Hydro is finally putting in place time-of-use rates. It only took 12 years after smart meters were installed.

    - 11 pm - 7 am: 5 ¢/kWh discount (offpeak)
    - 7 am - 4 pm: same price
    - 4 pm - 9 pm: 5 ¢/kWh extra (peak)

    This is a pretty small baby step, but hopefully, we'll see more comprehensive TOU rates in the future. This new rate might be useful to EV owners, but only if their evening consumption isn't too high.

  20. @jbond a few points 2 note on this that should keep you optimistic:

    1. Generally v.Small qty of refrigerant in each #HeatPump

    2. World moving towards lower GWP refrigerants eg: #R32:GWP=675, & lots now are moving to #R290:GWP=<3 (aka Propane) or #R744:GWP:1 (aka CO2!)

    3. Looking holistically, any leaks (which with regulation can be mitigated) are far outweighed from operational #CO2 savings vs use of fossil gas, direct #Electrification (given #CoP) etc.

  21. @TruthSandwich @sergerielau

    Not an outcome that the #petrogarchy will be happy with. 😜

    Despite my abhorrence of #Musk, #Tesla has proven that the internal combustion engine is now a technology that belongs in the past.

    Tesla dragged the rest of the #automobile industry into the 21st century. Without Tesla’s success, we’d be less further along the curve of replacing petroleum as the primary energy for transportation

  22. #IntroductionPost
    I live in Acton, MA USA, and I love my town. I'm a sustainability/climate activist who is currently on the Town's governing body, the Select Board. I'm pondering how a suburb becomes a town again. In the meantime, I am working to electrify everything, to create lasting connections between people and groups here, and implement our Town's Climate Action Plan

  23. “The corporate playbook for holding back climate policy has come a long way from science denialism but it is every bit as damaging,” Ed Collins, a director at InfluenceMap told The Guardian. “... is not limited to efforts to undermine regulations directly. It also involves prolific and highly sophisticated narrative capture techniques, leading governments down incredibly dangerous paths.”

  24. The future of trucking is electric! Love this ride-along piece, and I love that the trucker found it easy to adapt AND saw the benefit to future generations.

    Maybe someday we can all shop will a little less guilt about our transportation footprints.

  25. Do you talk with your children (and friends and colleagues and strangers on the street) about the health dangers of gas stoves?

    When you do, you might see a difference in people's reactions when cries of Culture Wars come into play.

  26. BC offers up to $4,000 in additional rebates when you buy an EV.

    Saskatchewan has no rebates and charges an extra $150/year to register an EV.

    The effect of those policy decisions is pretty clear.

  27. It has become completely absurd the number of times I have attempted to use this #EV charger at #AssemblyRow and failed, for no fault of my own.

    I just laughed out loud at this point.

    I'm beginning to take this personally....

  28. Beware people talking clean hydrogen, they are the ones who brought you clean coal
    reneweconomy.com.au/beware-peo

    "Clean Coal" is a furphy, and it's looking like "Clean Hydrogen" is unattainable. In reality, practically all hydrogen made today is extracted from fossil fuels, or is made from water by electrolysis that's powered by a non-renewable source of electricity.

    Some people talk about "Blue hydrogen" and claim they're cracked the secret of making it in commercial volumes at a price that's competitive with renewables, but they're not being honest with you about the cost or the quality of their product. Proponents claim that coal — such as Victoria's incredibly dirty, low-quality, high-pollutant brown coal — can be transformed into "Brown Hydrogen" or "Black Hydrogen" by capturing the carbon liberated during the hydrogen extraction process using Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). Same goes for "Blue Hydrogen" that's extracted from fossil gas.
    They're sorta correct, in the sense that you can get out hydrogen. But if you blink you'll miss seeing where the Carbon goes. By then, they'll attempt to scratch off the label to rebrand their dirty hydrogen as "Green Hydrogen".

    Herein lies the scam: they're saying is can be done cleanly. The problem is that they're using CSS as part of the process. It would be nice if CCS worked at an industrial scale at any price, but it doesn't. Countless millions of dollars have been poured by governments around the world into CCS pilot-plants at fossil fuel companies. The fossil fuel companies have all pocketed the money and failed to produce results.

    Scratch the surface of any hydrogen-bro, and you'll find a hydrocarbon-bro who's deliberately propping-up the unsustainable coal/gas/petrol industry or is an unwitting fool who's science-illiterate.

  29. Changes in #California rebates for #ElectricCars aims to get more drivers in #EVs and out of ICE cars. $12k to scrap your car with close to $10k in rebates? Now you're talking massive adoption.

    (Just one question: what about all the embodied carbon of all those old cars? What are we going to do with all that??)

  30. I support a ban on #GasStoves in the same I would have supported a ban on leaded gasoline. Sometimes the "old way" just simply isn't safe or scientifically sound -- no matter how much you like it.

    Gas stoves disproportionately hurt children, women, and people of color. The US government was designed to promote general the welfare, and banning gas stoves should be part of that.

    Funfact: Auch eFlugzeuge können rekuperieren. Im Sinkflug können sie den Akku teilweise wieder aufladen.

  32. @liamvhogan I was so over it, and I'm 1.94m big, that I bought an electric one (Husqvarna 535iXP #electric #chainsaw, x two #battery and a charger).

    <rantarama>
    I cannot tell you what a beautiful, #sexyBeast thing it is. Will cut gum trunks bigger than my firebox eats. Will last longer on one battery than my middle-aged body does. Starts 10msec after you think 'start'.

    Best bit: no cord. I never think 'I want to stop the noise and fumes, but I don't want the trouble of restarting the bugger'. Next best: I imagine the windfarm over the valley sending electrons direct into its little battery heart. Just for me.

    Press trigger, whir-rumble, cut stuff, fill socks with woodchips. Trad.
    But, when I release the trigger, the noise (there's no smell) instantly stops and I can hear the lyrebird again.

    Felling a 40 year old pine, I could *hear* each creak and splinter. Then, very fucking casually release the trigger, step back away to a safe distance, with a silent, still, safe chainsaw in my hand. Bloody marvellous.
    Breathe. Tree go #wump.

    Best tool I've bought since the Fiskars Xa23 brush hook. Now that's a joy, but also a different story....

  33. Hooray for Leah C. Stokes who told #SoCalGas to take a hike. We also cut our financial relationship with the company by buying an induction cooktop that sits on top of a non-functioning gas range and stove, a microwave that doubles as an oven, and an infrared heater. As renters, we can't partake in the rebates available, even if we could afford to. I hope more people are inspired by the actions of others who have had enough of #FossilFuels.

  35. What's the deal with natural gas stoves?

    99% Invisible has a new episode with @RebLeber that explains the movement to phase them out and the emotional attachment many have.

    I was surprised to learn that gas stoves are more popular in blue states than red:
    California 70% of households
    New Jersey 69%
    Illinois 67%
    New York 62%

    vs

    Texas 37%
    Florida 8%

    Action at the state level will be key.
