"The new high watermark for #renewables is a reflection both of the rapid buildout of #wind and #solar and the seasonal drop in power demand. Mild spring weather usually blunts the need for both #heating and #cooling, and as demand for electricity drops, #coal and #gas power ramp down. Last month, #fossilfuels generated less electricity than in any March going back at least 25 years, while renewables generated more, according to #Ember."

My cooktop
It's interesting that I'm shopping for a backup single phase cooktop.
I want a 1200 - 1600W single element system, which is powerful enough to heat my massive pots in which I can cook for 8 people.
Up to last night, I've only found the small 800W - 1000W systems and dual element 1800W systems single phase, some with nude heating coils, others with synthetic pads covering them.

How did 1600s Dutch households keep their fire embers from going out at night? With a curfew.
Yes, it's a pun. Curfews were metal covers that kept fire embers smouldering overnight, to be revived for the next day's cooking and heating. The word curfew comes from the French for fire cover (couvre feu).
The brass one pictured here is among the earliest to survive, made in Holland but now in London's V&A. It's embossed with an image of Saint Lawrence.
This is dark humour, since Lawrence was roasted alive in the third century—punishment for perhaps the first Christian protest. The early church's refusal to worship Roman gods led to persecution. Lawrence was ordered to surrender the church's treasures to authorities. He turned up with the sick, marginalized, poor, elderly, and widows, boldly proclaiming: “These are the true treasures of the church.” For this insolence, he was martyred (killed).

@mlanger
Yes, propane! Most #narrowboats have #propane #cookers. It can also be used for #heating. Alde is probably the leading brand for producing #propane boilers for boats that will run radiators as a #domestic #boiler will.#Diesel #heaters are also popular. Eberspacher and Webasto being the main brands though many fit very competitively priced Chinese units, but I read somewhere that they are not approved for marine use and should they start a fire insurance would be invalid.
A few #liveaboard boaters have larger Aga or Rayburn oil or solid fuel fired cookers that will also drive radiators
I referred to #cooker rather than #stove deliberately. Almost all privately owned narrow boats have small traditional style #solidfuel
(wood/coal) stoves fitted. On 19th century #boats theses would have been used both for heating and cooking. On modern boats they are usually stand alone heaters in the saloon, but some will be fitted with boilers and drive radiators elsewhere on the boat. -
