Central and West Africa have some of the world’s lowest electrification rates. In West Africa, 220 million people live without power,
Many rely on expensive kerosene and other fuels that fill homes and businesses with fumes and risk causing fires.
Solar is changing that. With products ranging from solar-powered lamps that allow children to study at night to elaborate home systems that power kitchen appliances and plasma TVs.

US imports of Indian panels and cells surpassed $1.8bn last year. Indian manufacturers are also investing in US factories following Biden’s IRA. “The main advantage is that they’re not Chinese.” #Energy

#Iran’s 2018 reserves were $122.5B, before new #sanctions were imposed after #Trump, in 2018, pulled out of an international agreement brokered during #Obama’s admin to restrain Iran’s #nuclear ambitions.
Iran’s crude #oil production rose to 3.3M barrels a day as of Aug, an increase since the end of the Trump admin but still lower than in 2018. Per US #Energy Info Admin, Iran’s oil production in 2020 was just under 2M barrels a day. The #pandemic sent oil production & sales plummeting globally.

(1/2) Happy Saturday. Two papers on #decarbonization and #economics. The first is a report from the #European Commission on strengths and weaknesses of the EU economy and how alternative #energy positions the EU for the next decade. Europe missed the train when it comes to computing, but sees itself as a leader on green energy.
Had to tell them that I am very unlikely to be allowed entry into HK due to my coverage of #humanrights in #Tibet#Taiwan#EastTurkestan, and gently called them out on holding an event in a place that's become so anti-press.
A big driver in the development of small nuclear reactors may less be the civilian demand but state-side demand to supply military bases and forward tactical units with energy and electricity. That may become an immense factor in innovation. Remember how it was the Vietnam War that led to the standardisation of cargo containers by the U.S. military that subsequently made globalized trade possible. It's thus probably the military, again, that is the driver of profound technological changes.
There it is: #KamalaHarris just launched her policy page ahead of the debate. Good stuff, from her #Housing plan to affordable #ChildCare and lowering #energy costs.
Can't wait for the #media to move the goalposts once again for #Harris' campaign.
https://www.europesays.com/1430361/ Don’t Believe Recent Headlines. The Inflation Reduction Act Worked. By its own standards, the landmark piece of climate legislation was a smashing success.
