EVs to make up 40% of new heavy truck sales in China and 20% of the total fleet by 2030. Boss of Octopus Energy @g__j told an FT event today he'd heard that number was already up to 37%... quite something.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Ten countries have now crossed 50% EV market share.
Not cities. Not regions. Ten countries. Across four continents.
What's remarkable is that just three years ago, Toyota Chairman argued EVs would be limited to around 30% of global new vehicle sales for the next 100 years.
It's 2026.
#1 Norway ~98%
#2 Denmark ~82%
#3 Nepal ~76%
#4 Ethiopia ~60%
#5 Sweden ~59%
#6 China ~57%
#7 Uruguay ~57%
#8 Netherlands ~55%
#9 Iceland ~51%
#10 Finland ~50%
The prediction came from Toyota Chairman Akio Toyoda.
But this is about more than one bad forecast.
It's about what happens when incumbents cling to the old world, an empire built on internal combustion, oil and fossil fuel nostalgia, while exponential technologies keep improving in the background.
As disruption accelerates, the dominoes are likely to fall faster and faster, making even Norway's transition look slow in hindsight. The difference today is that global supply chains are now being reshaped by electrification.
Most models assume vehicles simply age out. What they often miss is the collapse of supporting ICE infrastructure. As EV adoption rises, you start seeing fuel station closures, dealership retrenchment, fewer mechanics, parts shortages, rising insurance premiums and weaker resale values.
At some point, owning an ICE vehicle becomes increasingly inconvenient and expensive.
The real disruption may not be EV adoption itself. It may be the economic death spiral that makes ICE ownership progressively harder to justify, much like what happened to film cameras, DVDs and landlines.
Tesla, Chinese automakers and Transport as a Service (TaaS) only accelerate that process. As younger generations increasingly choose mobility on demand over vehicle ownership, fleet turnover could accelerate even further.
The transition won't be driven solely by people replacing old cars with EVs.
It will also be driven by fewer people feeling the need to own a car at all.
Slow. Then sudden.⚡📈 #Bettrification
Good news.
Globally the share of gas in electricity generation is declining.
This is thanks to the rapid deployment of renewables across the world.
Don’t let the UK energy cranks tell you nobody is following the path to clean power.
The data proves they are lying.
Because it has higher taxes to start with, having raised them in the 80s while Thatcher cut them, and used those higher taxes and lower debt to invest heavily in the foundations of growth such as transport and R&D giving it an economy that today is over 30% stronger than Britain.

This is exactly why billionaires can’t exist. This man is burning the entire world down because he cannot accept his daughter for who she is. And he has the money to actually do it. No one can have that power.
It’s not suddenly - and Murdoch played a key role. Honest question @davidyelland love the pod, but have you ever publicly taken responsibility for The Sun’s role in the Overton Window? The hate against ‘the other’? Never heard you reflect on how they / you negatively shaped UK?
It has suddenly become quite ‘okay’ to use racist language and actually be overtly racist on this platform and in much of the media and in daily life; The Overton window is no longer even in its frame, it lies in smithereens, smashed upon the floor.
Not peer-reviewed yet, but if it is then we are in the deepest of deep sh*t

Trucking keeps Europe moving. But can it survive going green?
Fit for 55 demands a 45% emissions cut from heavy vehicles by 2030 — a massive ask for a sector behind 80% of inland freight.

Fantastic graphic...
The world's energy importers are investing at MASSIVE scale into cleantech.
No one wants to be dependent on imported fossil fuels.
Numerous heat records have been broken in recent years. That is going to continue the next several. My The Associated Press colleague Seth Borenstein reports.
