@claesdevreese Yes, indeed good news that for the first time solar and wind energy surpass fossil energy production in Europe! For those who like to read more about it: go to ember-energy.org/app/uploads/2 Many more facts and graphs on #electricity and #cleanenergy can be found here. #ClimateChange #sustainability #ember #EuropeanUnion

Meine nimmerkalte Kaffeetasse ist eingetroffen! Es soll ja Magie sein. Aber erstmal laden. Danach so bald wie möglich testen.

“There are things done today in electrical science which would have been deemed unholy by the very men who discovered electricity, who would themselves not so long before have been burned as wizards”*…

Climate change continues. There is broad evidence (and consensus) that our environment, thus our ways of life, our livelihoods— indeed, our lives— are threatened. On the heels of a call from Trump to world leaders to abandon the climate fight, followed by a disappointing COP30 conference, it’s easy to be discouraged. But that, of course, is no answer.

Rather, we have to find ways to mitigate the damage that we’ve already locked in, even as we acclerate a transition to clean energy… which begins by (re-)framing and (re-)focusing the challenge. Ember, a clean energy think tank, suggests a candidate that, while it speaks to the moral obligations addressed by one of the models it means to augment/replace, has a more positive orientation…

Humanity is graduating from burning fossil commodities to harnessing manufactured technologies—from hunting scarce fossils to farming the inexhaustible sun, from consuming Earth’s resources to
merely borrowing them.

This isn’t a marginal climate substitution. It’s an energy revolution.

The magnetic centre is the electron: we are revolutionising how we generate, use, and connect
electrons. Solar and wind are conquering electricity supply. EVs, heat pumps, and AI are electrifying major new uses. Batteries and digitalisation are connecting supply and demand.

Three reinforcing shifts. One energy revolution. The electrotech revolution.

At its core, this revolution is driven by physics, economics, and geopolitics. After all, the arc of energy
history bends towards solutions that are leaner, cheaper and more secure.

Short-terms setbacks matter, but fundamentals matter more. And the fundamentals are stacked in electrotech’s favour.

Physics. Electrotech makes a mockery of setting fossils on fire and losing two-thirds of the energy to heat. Electrotech is three times as efficient.

Economics. Technologies get cheaper with scale. Commodities get more expensive the deeper you dig.

Geopolitics. Three quarters of the world is dependent on fossil imports. 92% of countries have renewables potential over 10x their current demand.

Electrotech has grown exponentially for decades. The difference today is that it’s too cheap to contain and too big to ignore. If current exponentials hold for five more years, global fossil demand will fall off its plateau.

Welcome to the Age of Electrotech…

A long and meaty presentation: “The Electrotech Revolution- the shape of things to come,” from @ember-energy.org.

One notes that the electrification that Ember pushes has other advocates, many of whom have been vocal for years; c.f., e.g., Saul Griffin. Still, another voice in the chorus is welcome.

As we plug in, we might send charged birthday greetings to Franz Aepinus; he was born on this date in 1724. A mathematician, scientist, and natural philosopher, he is best known for his research, both theoretical and experimental, into electricity and magnetism. Aepinus’ Tentamen theoriae electricitatis et magnetismi (1759; “An Attempt at a Theory of Electricity and Magnetism”) was the first work to apply mathematics to the theory of electricity and magnetism. And his experiments led to the design of the parallel-plate capacitor, a device used to store energy in an electric field.

When in doubt, always return to your why. It is what carries you through the challenges, guiding you when the path is unclear. Your purpose is your strength—it keeps you moving forward, no matter what stands in your way. youtu.be/tN74LERuOAU?si=bCTHm0

Weltweit erstmals mehr Strom aus Erneuerbaren als aus Kohle

China war laut einer Studie der Denkfabrik Ember im ersten Halbjahr 2025 für 55 Prozent des weltweiten Solarwachstums verantwortlich.

#Erneuerbare Energien haben mehr #Strom produziert als #Kohle. Der Anteil der Erneuerbaren am globalen #Strommix stieg auf 34,3 Prozent, während der #Kohleanteil auf 33,1 Prozent sank, so Experten von #Ember. In #Deutschland wurden laut Statistischem Bundesamt im ersten Halbjahr rund 220 Terawattstunden Strom erzeugt, davon 62 Prozent aus Erneuerbaren und 21 Prozent aus #Kohle. Die weltweite #Stromnachfrage wuchs im ersten Halbjahr 2025 um 369 TWh. Dieser Anstieg wurde durch die Zunahme der #Solarstromerzeugung (plus 306 TWh) und #Windstromerzeugung (plus 97 TWh) mehr als ausgeglichen, heißt es in der Studie. Die Stromerzeugung aus #Wasserkraft ging deutlich zurück, die aus #Bioenergie leicht, während aus #Atomenergie etwas mehr Strom produziert wurde. Fossile Energien wie #Kohle, #Gas und #Öl verzeichneten dagegen einen leichten Rückgang. #China war laut Studie für 55 Prozent des weltweiten Solarwachstums verantwortlich, gefolgt von den #USA (14 Prozent), der EU (12 Prozent), Indien (knapp 6 Prozent) und #Brasilien (gut 3 Prozent).
