WOW! Solar canals in India 🇮🇳! Solar panels being integrated into canals in Gujarat. It helps with evaporative losses, doesn’t use extra land and keeps solar panels cooler. Huge step forward for solar industry! bbc.com/future/article…

UK solar industry wants capacity trebled this decade: Solar Energy UK today called on the government to provide it with the same kind of support that has been extended to offshore wind companies. dlvr.it/S1v9XJ #solarenergy #solarpv #solar

Saules Technologies opens perovskite solar cell factory in Poland: The Polish perovskite solar cell specialist claims to be the first company in the world to have commissioned commercial production of the technology. dlvr.it/S1wKV4 #solarenergy #solarpv #solar

Trebling the UK’s #solarenergy capacity by 2030 could cut total UK carbon emissions by 21.2 million tonnes per year as fossil fuels are replaced with cleaner power & create 13,000 jobs, according to a new report by Solar Energy UK☀️Read more: renews.biz/70362/uk-pv-ca…

It looks like we have a new record PCE for Organic Photovoltaics ! doi.org/10.1002/adma.2…

The Copenhagen summit of 2009 was undone by deep mistrust of the developed world by developing countries. The PM’s decision to cut aid spending shows he doesn’t understand that COP26 is not a photo op but a complex and fragile negotiation. Me at COP questions yesterday:

Huge applause for the brave people who occupied the UK Government building all day to oppose a new 800 million barrel oil field proposed off Shetland. Boris Johnson must reject this climate-wrecking project #StopCambo

Could Scotland unleash greater #Solar potential? Surely we have the potential to be on par with our friends in NI and Denmark? In the run up to #COP26 let's encourage Scottish Government to set ambitious 2030 solar targets, as off-shore wind has!

Maybe we could start by rejecting fossil fuel protectionism and subsides.

📢Dr Dr Jess Wade liked it here once chairing another webinar on The Role of Solar Technologies in Sustainable Development IV! 👩‍💻Talks focused on printed PV, perovskites, solar integration + solar in the developing world. 4th Oct 2021, 12.00-14.00 BST Register by 1st Oct: tinyurl.com/IOPsolar

And is PM listening to himself or will he still push for new oilfields?

$11 million a MINUTE. Take the money out of fossil fuels and put it in the transition to 👏 stay 👏 alive 👏! fal.cn/3iQyy

Much talk of the Treasury's use of 'economically illiterate' as a put-down to fend off green public investment calls. Wrong, but has it occurred to them they may be 'ecologically illiterate', & as economics is just 'made up' while ecology is real, that the latter matters more?

Exclusive: 70 climate scientists urge PM to end new oil and gas investment ahead of Cop26 List includes Dr Friederike Otto James Edward Hansen Prof Michael E. Mann independent.co.uk/climate-change…

In the latest #COP26 short videos, Prof Michael Walls, of CREST and SuperSolar, discusses what has been achieved so far with solar energy, its incredible growth story, and the contributions of Loughborough University in this area. Watch here 👇 bit.ly/3C3SMRx

Congratulations George!

Brilliant news, congrats Victoria Porley on the RSC Photophysics & Photochemistry Group prize 👏🎉#photocatalysis

🚨BREAKING: Siccar Point Energy has paused the Cambo oil field🚨 This is HUGE news. Now the UK government needs a real plan for a #JustTransition for industry workers & communities and to rule out new oil & gas projects once and for all #StopCambo bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…

64% of Italy’s military operations spend is to protect the interests of companies that extract fossil fuels. 2/3 of EU military missions are to secure oil & gas imports. That’s €€€€ billions to 'protect' fossil fuels that are devastating the planet we depend on.
