@fernandosinrumb@World_Data_A Very true โ but also, Spain and Portugal need to invest a lot more in BESS, to capture solar power when it's cheap and abundant, and offload when demand spikes after sundown.
@footballcritix Never put in any extra work โ a lazy snob who relied solely on talent. Logically, then, he is not in the same league with legends such as Hristo Stoichkov.
@biancoresearch Honestly, stuff you learn in Economics 101, and something that should be a no-brainer. How did we end up in this post-2008 socialist mess, where every shock gets absorbed by the taxpayers? Doesn't end well.
@hispanicnomad@levelsio I'd argue "nomad demand" didn't kill the Eastern European "budget play"โrising living standards and booming economies across the region did.

Korea is flexing here with this highly artistic floating solar farm, newly commissioned days ago.
47.2 MW of capacity located near the 50 MW Imha hydroelectric dam. The modules are arranged into the shape of Koreaโs flag and the Mugunghwa, Koreaโs national flower.
The U.S. is on track for another record year for clean electricity in 2025: 59 GW additions, which is 92% of new builds. Solar leads again, and storage nearly doubles. The grid is changing fast.
