The world's largest fully electric container ship made its maiden trip this week.

Everything will be electric except rockets but large container ships will.

[Jan Rosenow @janrosenow]

THIS IS A HUGE ACHIEVEMENT:

The EU now generates more electricity from wind and solar than from fossil fuels.

[Peter Zeniewski @PZeniewski]

Our new @IEA report finds that that clean energy transitions are cheaper than the path we are currently on. How could this be? Surely sticking with fossil fuels is cheaper than buying fancy new kit like EVs and heat pumps…right? Nope. Let’s get into it.

🔴EU ETS verified emissions dropped a larger-than-expected 16% in 2023, data shows

* Annual drop in emissions is largest ever since ETS launch in 2005
* 24% fall in CO2 in power sector
* Industry down 7%

I'm looking for a PhD candidate to study the value of long-duration underground hydrogen storage. As this requires considering intra- and inter-annual weather variability and uncertainty, we'll develop improvements to state-of-the-art energy system models.

Deadline: March 17th!

You might make mistakes, but at least you’re not electricity market operator making nearly 6 GW erronoeus bid to tomorrow’s spot market.

@JoernRichstein @joaoestrangeiro @OliverRuhnau @JohannaSchiele @WiSoUniCologne @ewi_koeln @Hertie_Sustain Hopefully I'll find the time to write this down soon...

[Kenneth Bruninx @KennethBruninx]

@JoernRichstein @joaoestrangeiro @OliverRuhnau @JohannaSchiele @WiSoUniCologne @ewi_koeln @Hertie_Sustain Absolutely - as in any analysis, your results are dependent on your inputs. In our specific case, we don't see big effects (in terms of emissions) as we see rapid RES uptake in all cases, which drives most of the emissions reductions.

[Kenneth Bruninx @KennethBruninx]

@OliverRuhnau @joaoestrangeiro @JohannaSchiele @WiSoUniCologne @ewi_koeln @Hertie_Sustain We're currently working on this, and our results so far suggest that H2 production - regardless of additionality, temporal correlation,.. - does not affect cumulative ETS emissions, even if you consider the MSR. EUA prices are a different story...

[Lion Hirth @LionHirth]

One of the most underappreciated aspects of Europe's energy crisis is the resilience of the EU carbon market.

You wouldn't spot a crisis if you didn't know it was there.

[Kenneth Bruninx @KennethBruninx]

@bramcla @MartenOvaere @SamHamels Ik berekende dit een tijd geleden samen met @MartenOvaere. Resultaat kan positief of negatief mbt emissies zijn - er zijn bijzonder veel onzekerheden in dit verhaal. Neemt niet weg dat ETS an zich werkt.

[Kenneth Bruninx @KennethBruninx]

@Laveyne_J @MathiasB9 Technisch correct, maar de bedrijven die onder ETS vallen lijken niet te geloven dat men die mogelijkheid gaat gebruiken: de huidige EUA prijzen reflecteren hun verwachting van toekomstige schaarste... https://t.co/1zD0t6qm75

"Wat zal de koolstoftaks u kosten? Dat hangt af van Vlaamse klimaatambities" gefeliciteerd met dit uitermate duidelijk en correct artikel. Laat ons de hand aan de ploeg slaan en aan oplossingen werken. Investeren in toekomst. Afremmen is energieverlies https://t.co/JYY9xm0r1R

[Kenneth Bruninx @KennethBruninx]

@joaoestrangeiro That may be a possible outcome, but challenging to generalize!

[Kenneth Bruninx @KennethBruninx]

@joaoestrangeiro I’ll get back to you when I’ve read your work in more detail, but in general one would need to require that that hydrogen is produced from renewables to ensure that it is carbon-neutral…
