Forbes: Uruguay’s Renewable Charge: A Small Nation, A Big Lesson For The World — https://www.forbes.com/sites/kensilverstein/2025/10/19/uruguays-renewable-charge-a-small-nation-a-big-lesson-for-the-world/
A key takeaway: #Hydro and #Wind provide 80%, #Biomass 15%. 1-3% is from flexible thermal (fossil fuel powered,) with the balance being #Solar.
#Uruguay's #EnergyTransition shows there is a #ThirdWay, producing effectively all their energy with renewables and without high tech #StorageBatteries. They do not rely on #silicon solar, either.
It added 50,000 jobs, in a nation of 3.5 million.

Three magic #cycling days in #Camargue ( #France ): 130 km on #Brompton #GLine folding #bike ,mostly #gravel with heavy Mistral #wind .A unique landscape which may progressively disappear in the next decades because of #climatechange .

Gibt es #Strom Statistiken heruntergebrochen auf die Region oder auf die jeweilige Stadt?
Also quasi ein https://energy-charts.info/charts/power/chart.htm?l=de&c=DE aber für meine Stadt? #pv #wind

Try to be EXTREMELY mindful when you are getting rid of something or purchasing something casually. The embedded #energy for everything - regardless of how cheap it is - can be mind-boggling.

A government panel proposed making offshore wind projects eligible for long-term decarbonization power auctions, which would help cover soaring construction and maintenance costs. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/11/20/economy/japan-offshore-wind-support/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #energy #renewables #wind

Happy #JMusicFriday all, and welcome to nearly the weekend! I picked "wind/storms" six weeks ago, and this past week for me I've been experiencing a lot, so I'll try not to pick "earthquakes as a topic" (or tornados) and risk prophetic creation!
But #wind and #storms (or related) feels like it should provide plenty of options without risking anyone's homes. 😅
I hadn't even been thinking about what to start with, so in this case I'll just use what comes to mind first, and says "yes you can dip into hurricanes if you'd like" 😘

Also I didn't know Master Keaton had an eternal wind too! So here is that one.
But also "the proper one" from Gundam F91
Also some Shining in the Storm

I'm reading 'Here Comes The Sun' by #BillMcKibben. I like his analogy that #solar and #wind used to be the Whole Foods of energy and now they are the Costco of energy.
