Go Canada! 🇨🇦

Tied with Messi 🇦🇷 and Haaland 🇳🇴, nice!

Não era o arranque que queríamos, mas isto está longe de ter acabado. Cabeça levantada e foco no próximo jogo.

Grid scale batteries are being installed by utilities around the world, but on P.E.I, the local utility is pushing to waste $300+ million on dirty diesel turbines.
Batteries are now cheaper, respond faster, & provide further savings by avoiding fuel costs.

Extreme cold in Atlantic Canada, currently windchill of -26°C and 3,800 households without power on P.E.I., plus snow storm forecasted for tomorrow.

"We need battery energy storage systems (BESS). Maritime Electric claims renewable energy can’t stabilize the grid... Yet modern “grid-forming” batteries can stabilize voltage and frequency just like a gas plant."
PEI needs innovation... https://t.co/FFJvy9cKf5

Around 1,200 households on #PEI without power this evening, some have been without power for 2 hours and counting. Current temperature is -15°C.

They thought they were just producing energy… but the solar panels awakened the deser.

Turning cheap daytime solar into electricity you can actually use at night just got a lot cheaper.

Battery storage hits $65/MWh – a tipping point for wind and solar.

For years, authorities have predicted gas power stations would remain necessary to back up renewables. But increasingly, this work is being done instead by large-scale batteries.

Grid batteries have rapidly moved from a supporting role to prime time.

Yeah, I can see a clear path for a not-so-distant future with self-driving cars and humanoid robots, and now understanding the utility of AI and how much power and compute it needs, I'm starting to consider as well...

Solar powered AI satellites

That's just wild.

Lots of visitors at Point Prim even at the top of the lighthouse. Couple of HF antennas and 40+ contacts.

I'm a big proponent of Project Based Learning and Renewable Energy. Having maker spaces, plus solar panels, and geothermal, is simply fantastic! Way to go PEI.

The science of global warming beautifully and simply explained by Dr. Carl Sagan, ca. 1985.

Great video from @CBC, with beautiful aerial shots of #PEI.
I've been to most of these places either playing tourist or doing POTA.
Amazing research being done by @UPEIClimate. Worth a watch!
