Excellent discussion with Nigerian Minister Ekperikpe Ekpo @Ekperikpe001 on energy security & affordability in African countries & the need to deliver universal clean cooking access across the continent We also signed a Memorandum of Understanding deepening @IEA & 🇳🇬 cooperation https://t.co/NCDHnc9Y8t
Battery-enabled electric #cooking has strong potential to expand the use of energy-efficient appliances in settings with limited or unreliable electricity supply. Find out more in this @SEforALLorg, @UKMECS and @geccoHQ white paper. 🔗https://t.co/MvFp8PKN7b https://t.co/EciHWuSOXi
The question here is how much of this needs to be 1GW data centers that are difficult to add to the grid and driving higher electricity bills? We could build hundreds of thousands of small data centers within existing interconnections for...
Air source heat pumps without well insulated homes are a waste or time. Insulation should always come first. And we need to get a grip on cowboy operators
I *love* this ternary chart showing developing economies increasingly go directly for clean electrons (solar plus some wind), bypassing the fossil economy that the US and EU went through. I expect Africa will take an even more direct route than India. https://t.co/KjsZV3S6P1...
Forget climate change for the moment. One of the main reasons for supporting green energy is to reduce our reliance on gas for electricity generation. The Ukraine war has compromised access to Russian gas and this has had a massive...
During today’s nonstop rain, California’s “fight” against climate danger has featured mandated solar panels that produce no electricity and mandated paper bags that can’t carry groceries. “Fighting” climate via forced technological regression just makes us more vulnerable to it.
EV batteries are getting a second life as grid-scale energy storage that can create upwards additional 8 years of useful life. EV batteries are also being used to pair with previously solar-only projects. This second life is in addition to findings...
Appetite for new electric cars may be waning in the US. But demand for used ones is rising. “The buzz word for the year is ‘affordability’ for a really good reason,” said one analyst. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-14/booming-used-ev-sales-reveal-what-car-buyers-want

Can you spot these misconceptions around wind power? Take our quiz @washingtonpost https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/interactive/2026/wind-power-renewables-us-energy-mix-quiz/ by Keith Moore
EU's climate policymaking continues. "Governments will be required to ensure that 25% of steel used under public procurement and subsidy programs is low-carbon. The bloc will apply similar rules for aluminum and cement." https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-16/eu-will-pitch-green-steel-as-key-pillar-of-industrial-revival
Clean cooking is a key climate solution. A company that raised $300 million and was reliant on carbon offset sales for its business model to work has gone bust. Lots of lessons for developing countries and offset sellers. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-16/clean-cooking-company-s-collapse-touches-world-bank-and-beyond
In #Zambia, @SEforALLorg in partnership with @RockefellerFdn, @EnergyAlliance and🇿🇲 are implementing a first-of-its-kind initiative in #Africa to boost productive energy access, driving electrification through distributed #renewableenergy investments. 🔗https://t.co/J4ZNT0mD8X https://t.co/jlCFsPaQAp
Morgan Stanley predicts a 100GW power surge in Asia from AI & data centers, by 2030 - with electricity use from data centers expected to quadruple between now and 2030, a 23% annual growth rate If governments try to feed this...
We tend to think of batteries as the ones in our phones. But the real shift is happening at grid scale. Utility-scale “mega batteries” now have hundreds of millions of times the capacity of smartphone battery. Costs down ~40% since 2024 Capacity in...
Good climate news this week 1 China: Emissions have been flat or falling for nearly 2 years 2 China: Emissions fell in 2025 3 Global: IEA says world already passed peak coal in electricity sector 4 China: In January, EVs passed 50% of China’s...
California grid electricity demand continues to decline despite 2.5 million EVs and lots of data centers in the state 2026 Demand on CAISO grid down 1.84% v '25; 1.22% v '24; and 2.27% v '23 Due to growth in behind-the-meter roof PV,...
If we made every airliner all-economy - could that slash aviation's emissions by 50%? Not so fast, argues RAeS Head of Research Naomi Allen, who warns against 'easy wins' to sustainability #avgeek https://t.co/tOVFLw7vLK https://t.co/bNd4bey0XQ
Link: https://t.co/VlV8K8X7eR 🇫🇷France set out a new energy law after years of wrangling on Thursday which slashes its wind and solar power targets and drops a mandate for state-run firm EDF to shutter nuclear plants. Summary France has cut its 2035 wind and...
The data center driven surge in Ohio's electricity consumption has contributed to tighter natural gas balances. For the 12-months ending in October, 2025, Ohio's natural gas consumption was 3.7 bcf/d, near an all-time high, driven largely by demand in the...
NEW ANALYSIS: China's CO2 has now been 'flat or falling' for 21 months * Down in 2025 * Still below Mar 2024 * Clean energy wave a key factor If this is China's peak (TBC) it's the climate story of the century so...
🇮🇳About 3.5% of total passenger cars sold in January 2026 in India were electric (these are actual cars and do not include two- and three-wheelers).
Despite CA having 2x the elec price as TX, Texans pay 28% more per cap for elec yearly because TX uses 2.7x the elec per cap as CA (vs 2.1x in 2001, so nothing to do with weather) even with...
HEY FRIENDS A rare treat: I'm talking about something not only good but so good that it makes the cynics and climate delayers look amusingly silly. Big grid batteries are pushing dirty, expensive fossil gas out of the power grid,...
Most people don’t know this: Heat pumps REDUCE gas consumption even if running 100% on electricity from a gas fired power plant. More here in my piece for @CarbonBrief 👇 https://t.co/rKlRE0ug1S https://t.co/DTnKDp9lZp
The commercial sector is now the largest electricity consumer in Ohio, driven by data center expansions. Commercial electricity sales surpassed residential sales for the first time on a twelve-month moving average basis in August 2025 and now account for 35%...
