Only One Country Is Making Progress On Electrifying Everything

Credit to Author: Michael Barnard| Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2024 14:45:06 +0000

For close to twenty years, it’s been clear that electrifying everything is a key climate change wedge. Mark Z. Jacobson’s work in the USA and then internationally with his 100% Renewables by 2050 modeling laid much of the groundwork for this.

Recently I published on the International Maritime Organization’s commitment to introduce carbon pricing for all maritime shipping in 2028. One of the comments echoed something I’d seen elsewhere, the odd premise that this would drive freight to much higher emissions airplanes, and hence be counterproductive from a climate perspective. The … [continued]

Running A Cybertruck On Mostly Solar Power — Interview

Credit to Author: Jake Richardson| Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2024 19:39:00 +0000

The last time I interviewed Anthony Sicari, it was about when he tested his home solar power and Tesla batteries to generate and utilize his own electricity for a little over a month instead of using grid electricity. (Elon Musk re-tweeted that interview.) Then, the world was quite different. It … [continued]
