On shortest day of year, Calif reaches 100% WindWaterSolar for part of 219th day in 2025 Fossil gas down 37.4% in '25 v '23 Batteries up 183% v '23 PV up 39.4% v '23 Wind up 4.4% v '23 51.7% of all in-state electricity from WWS v 44.7% in '23 CA will be 100% WWS 24/7 by 2039

Good job, Trump, killing more people from fossil fuel pollution and sending the US further behind China, who is 100 years faster than us: https://t.co/zoRcoqTczK Trump admin pauses leases for some offshore wind projects over national security concerns

Whether the world addresses global warming, air pollution, and energy insecurity in a timely manner depends largely on country transition rates to clean, renewable energy. Yet, no study has examined...

@JessePeltan New paper: China's current rate of Wind-Water-Solar (WWS) installations puts it on track to transition to 100% WWS across all energy sectors, thus eliminate air pollutants & GHGs from energy, by 2051 U.S. & India won't get there until past 2130 https://t.co/eWfEJlUEgZ

2/4) China's clean-energy buildout is the fastest in history, 20x faster than France's peak nuclear buildout. China is already producing ∼54% of the WWS the US needs in 2050 to go 100% WWS across all energy sectors. Seven countries are transitioning faster than China.

We can thank "all-of-the-above" policies that promote carbon capture, direct air capture, bioenergy, and nuclear for part of the slow U.S. pace. What is clear is that 100% WWS after electrification is not only possible, but it is the only solution in the time we have.
