Posting this for my German audience: Grosse Wärmepumpen oder was Deutschland von Dänemark lernen kann! Während Deutschland eine erbitterte Diskussion um Wärmepumpen und Tiefkühllager hat, ist Dänemark beim Thema Windkraft, Stromhandel und Wärmepumpen deutlich weiter.

Countries of this world - be more like Denmark!
🇩🇰 Denmark - Feb 25 - BEV Trajectory 66.1% BEV 2.8% PHEV 31.1% ICE Trailing 12 months are: 54.4% BEV 3.8% PHEV 41.8% ICE This is getting ridiculous. Denmark is actually keeping to their ridiculously steep transition curve! AGAIN!

Craig Fitzgerald wrote a tiny story five days ago about Porsche (and Xiaomi) and ICE and EVs and China and the World and so on: "I've seen a lot of "I Told You Sos" over the last couple of weeks regarding @Porsche's sudden shift from EV production back to ICEs. Here's what's

In 2024 German lignite production dropped back to the level of *drum roll* 1916! We know that electricity got cleaner in Germany, but that drop in lignite production is quite staggering.
2024 wurden 92 Mio. Tonnen Braunkohlen in Deutschland gefördert, so wenig wie zuletzt im Jahr 1916. https://t.co/MdYHDggjAL

Awesome! "Today, there are around 800,000 electric cars in Norway, which corresponds to 27.5 percent of the total vehicle fleet in the country. They currently consume 2.75 TWh of the country's energy production. Despite this, the country's total energy use in road transport is
Så mycket el förbrukar Norges elbilar. Allt fler klipper navelsträngen från fossilbilen. https://t.co/OO7jt5RAeK

Denmark with its pragmatic, no nonsense energy policies is rapidly becoming a green energy juggernaut. Countries of this world, be more like Denmark!

Note that this week had the highest average demand of all 180 weeks that I've modelled so far. 26.8 GW, or 13% above average. But peak demand of 37.7GW was short of the record 39.3GW seen on 16 Dec 2024. Confirming that wind+PV+5hrs of BESS well suited for extreme summer demand.
Thread: Each week I run a simulation of Australia’s main electricity grid using rescaled generation data to show that it can get very close to 100% renewable electricity with 24GW/120GWh of storage (5 hrs at av demand) Results: Last week: 100% RE Last 180 weeks: 98.6% RE (1/5)

An absolute record! 78% of private car purchases (and leasing) were electric vehicles in Denmark in January 2025. (Diesel cars are down to 56(!) private buyers for the whole country in the Month of January).
78%! 5.353 danskere fik leveret en elbil i januar 2025 (privatkøb + privatleasing)🚗🔌 Det er rekordhøjt 💪 Alt imens blot 56 personer valgte en dieselbil, og 71 en plugin-hybrid fra ny. Men det er ikke slut her: Læg dertil, at yderligere 5.535 danskere fik en elbil via

This is the way to frame it, this is the way to go: I charge at the place I shop. And I shop at the place I charge - having a charger on premise is good business.
We are expanding our charging network across Nairobi! Host a charging station & transform your space into a revenue-generating EV hub. For inquiries, or proposal submission email to charging@basi-go.com.

Also had an eye opening discussion with a friend whose spouse has MS, a neurodegenerative disease that's currently causing difficulty for them driving at night. They plan to move from their Honda Accord to a Model Y with FSD

The picture is an example of how Starlink is sold in small electronic shops across Africa. People in the West don't appreciate this enough.

Starlink is an absolute game changer. Seriously, I don't think people understand this enough. I have experienced Starlink now in airplanes and remote places without other internet options. Mostly outside the EU/US. I don't think people understand how big of a deal this is.

🧵 Data for full year of Denmark 2024 has arrived and I am a little shocked how close we can get to 100% renewable energy without much optimization, take a look ⬇️ Below is the Danish electricity load shown together with a doubling of our current wind and solar production to a
