  1. Soaring and a surge in push more off the grid
    As has been the case for a while now, the biggest trend on the US grid was the growth of solar. Compared to the same quarter the year earlier, solar was up by 24%. On its own, that was enough to offset 80% of the rising demand. Overall, the output of the major (, solar, and hydro) grew by 11% compared to same period the year prior, or about 1.8 times the growth in demand.

  6. 🇵🇹 Turbine generator hall of an abandoned hydroelectric plant, Portugal. The plant dates back to the 1920s, with new and more powerful turbines added in the 1950s.

    The hydro plant closed about 10 years ago, replaced by a more modern facility.

  10. BC Hydro has announced it will add 8500 gigawatt hours per year from solar and wind over two years. They will come online by 2033 and boost the capacity by 13%. Most of it with better than 50% First Nations ownership.

    Site C was over $10 Billion and produces 5100GWh annually.

    Also by comparison, there is no Pipeline project and no First Nations have bought Transmountain.

  15. Who Actually Benefits When Nepal Sells Hydro to Silicon Valley?

    Nepal is being courted for green compute. Ireland tried it first. Here is what saying yes to multinationals actually looks like.
