Here is a transcript of discussion between Pedro Prieto and Nate Hagens on the national apagón, blackout, in Spain, and the problem of grid resilience with DC renewables (photovoltaics).

And more broadly, as Hagens says,
"...energy blindness. We just don't see how we swim in a sea of energy services every day."

Both are pro-renewables but caution re need for rigour, calculations, not just speculative private sector expansion.

I got another solar panel for my balcony and I must say that I’m really excited! Not only that the price is half of what I used to pay a few years ago, but you can get everything in the local hardware store! Also here in Berlin you get 250 euros in subsidies from the city. A total no-brainer. #solar #solarbalconies #energytransition

A better name for wind farms, solar parks, big hydro:

"Non renewable systems for capturing renewable energy flows."

Term used by Pedro Petro (cited by @casdeiro in his "The uncomfortable truths about the energy transition" (in Spanish).

Battery giant expects China truck market to be 50% electric by 2028

CATL founder Robin Zeng’s forecast heralds sweeping disruption of global market in heavy goods vehicles

Zeng’s claims suggest traditional truckmakers such as Sweden’s Volvo and Germany’s MAN and Daimler could soon encounter a wave of intense Chinese competition of the sort that has swept through the market for passenger cars.

A thought experiment on the lines of "For all mankind" (the #appletv show). Suppose #China had not really managed to get its act together to become the #manufacturing giant and had also muddled along like India on infrastructure...

A lot more manufacturing would probably have persisted in the #US #EU - other nations don't have the scale of China. Would the US/EU have managed a the clean energy transition with far more manufacturing?
