There is huge potential in pumped hydro #energystorage

The #electricity generated by run of river power plants is considered part of the #baseload. As it is also the most decarbonized, investment in these plants should attract more and more investors eag…https://t.co/dSGHlWJerG

2021 ended with #COP26 providing useful clarifications on #carbon credits.

We can now confidently envisage the development of a strong demand for quality carbon credits because large companies and institutional investors cannot take the risk of being a…https://t.co/sWmX7YD2nn

Hydropower the efficient way to generate the most decarbonized electricity at the lowest Levelized Cost of Energy. https://t.co/VUH2J5ppMh

Are we alienated to the point we do not see that Black Friday chimes with The Triumph of Death (Pieter Bruegel the Elder)?

Additionality is a real issue, and in the aftermath of #COP26 demand for good quality carbon credits will increase.

A much-needed clarification has been brought to article 6 of the Paris Agreement:

“Any time an internationall…https://t.co/rGBUW3p2NO https://t.co/6yTfT3IYc1

Reaching #NetZero requires to increase #solarpower and #windpower contribution to electricity generation but even more so to massively invest in #hydropower.

La forêt est le plus efficace et le moins cher des puits carbone naturels mais investir dans des forêts ne présente aucun intérêt en terme d'additionalité.
En revanche, planter des arbres sur des terres dégradées retire de manière additionnelle du CO2 et…https://t.co/86WN3Mj9ID

Can you believe this?
Halfway through the COP26 - UN Climate Change Conference
climate talks in Glasgow, Australia has
refused to
sign either commitment to cut emissions by
30% by 2030 or phase out use of coal in electricity generation by the 2040s.

[Philippe DESFOSSES @ph_desfosses]

Electrification will be part of the solution to reach NetZero only if we stop relying on coal to generate electricity. IIGCC is providing us wit a clear roadmap. Let's follow it!
It is sad to see that some countries are still promoting coal and claim the…https://t.co/wumehGZnGJ

There is no dearth of money. There is misallocation of #capital. #IIGCC has been relentlessly arguing in favour of more #Impact #Investment and supporting initiatives that will help us to reach #NetZero. In that respect should be commended their recently…https://t.co/Ioxklubem9
