Map renewable electrcity share across Europe

[Grain Farmer]

So when are you moving to Europe cc? Sounds like your kind of place.

[blackpowder]

Europe needs to offset dependence on Russia.
We need to have a plan to make money while investing in long term stable power. No hydro here so nuclear it is while we sell gas. Build baby build. Sell baby sell.
Wind and solar are pre-planned political distractions for us here.

"Only fools ignore what is going on in the world!"

Hey you FOOL! Ignoring the MESS Canada is in due to crooked Turd carnage and all the Libtards like you!

[chuckChuck]

A lot of flimsy and lame comebacks when you show the antiscience crowd how much renewable electricity there is in Europe.

North Dakota, Texas, California and Alberta also have a lot!

Are you going to whine about those places too and tell us it doesn't work? LOL

Its not one or the other. You can have both!

But I don't expect you guys to ever get past the renewables bad, fossil fuels good thinking!

[shtferbrains]

Your right, there is room for some of everything
But that is not the way our incompetent leaders are taking us.

Have a look at this and let me know what you think Chuck https://newsletter.doomberg.com/p/talebs-law

[chuckChuck]

You must be talking about incompetent Danny Smith Shite!

Alberta has never produced more oil and they are complaining like they are going broke! LOL

Subsidized oil investment is a way ahead of renewable investment in Alberta.

So get your facts straight Shite for brains.

One aspect of energy investment. Now for the big picture:

"Global energy investment is set to increase in 2025 to a record $3.3 trillion despite headwinds from elevated geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty, a new IEA report ([url]https://www.iea.org/reports/world-energy-investment-2025[/url]) says, with clean energy technologies attracting twice as much capital as fossil fuels.

Investment in clean technologies – renewables, nuclear, grids, storage, low-emissions fuels, efficiency and electrification – is on course to hit a record $2.2 trillion this year, reflecting not only efforts to reduce emissions but also the growing influence of industrial policy, energy security concerns and the cost competitiveness of electricity-based solutions, according to the 2025 edition of the IEA’s annual World Energy Investment report. Investment in oil, natural gas and coal is set to reach $1.1 trillion.

In addition to a comprehensive assessment of the current investment landscape across fuels, technologies and regions, this 10th edition of the World Energy Investment report explores some of the major changes over the past decade.

“Amid the geopolitical and economic uncertainties that are clouding the outlook for the energy world, we see energy security coming through as a key driver of the growth in global investment this year to a record $3.3 trillion as countries and companies seek to insulate themselves from a wide range of risks,” said IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol. “The fast-evolving economic and trade picture means that some investors are adopting a wait-and-see approach to new energy project approvals, but in most areas we have yet to see significant implications for existing projects.”

“When the IEA published the first ever edition of its World Energy Investment report nearly ten years ago, it showed energy investment in China in 2015 just edging ahead of that of the United States,” Dr Birol added. “Today, China is by far the largest energy investor globally, spending twice as much on energy as the European Union – and almost as much as the EU and United States combined.”

Can you read past the spin,Chuck?
Top priority is energy security concerns.
That means dependable baseload.

She has grid improvements and nuclear and who knows what else included in the 2/3.

She makes no mention of the demand from AI that competing Countries are desperate to fill.

Bill Gates came to his epiphany when he realized unreliable renewables wert in the plan to meet his needs

Organizations like the IEA are burdened with DEI hires that are political activists left over from the last yrs of leaders like Biden and Trudeau.
They are still spinning the info for people like you.

[chuckChuck]

Excuses excuses! LOL

Trump will burden the US and will be left in the dust as the rest of the world makes technological change.

China has more manufacturing and engineers than the USA, Germany and Japan combined.

And they are biggest installer of renewable energy sources with a goal of reducing fossil fuel use.

What happens in China will shape the world as the gas guzzling US empire declines.
Only idiots think we should burn more fossil energy to accomplish less!

Donny is just speeding up the decline by trying to bully his allies into submission.
