The wind has dropped a little here in Spain today (Friday April 19th) so only 87% of electricity on the Spanish grid today comes from emissions-free sources (solar, wind, nuclear, hydro, etc.), down from 88% yesterday 😞

Someone told me they bought a plug-in hybrid because they drive to Galveston regularly, from Dallas. And that there aren't any fast chargers in Galveston, so they had to buy a hybrid.
That can't be right, can it? No fast chargers at all? In all of Galveston?

Electricity needed to produce 1 ton of...

Refined aluminum at smelter: 12,000-17,000 kWh
Graphite negative electrode material via graphitization: 14,000 kWh
Solar polysilicon wafers (ingot-pulling + wafer slicing only): ~66,129 kWh

CO2 intensity in solar supply chain matters!

Microsoft just dropped VASA-1.

The European Union just came out with an official report:
REAL-WORLD emissions versus the new WLTP cycle.

The results are
*UNBELIEVABLE!!*

PHEVs emit on average
THREE AND A HALF TIMES MORE
than the official test claims!

If this was a #climate protest, their actions would have been shut down before they got started, and they’d have been aggressively arrested!

NEW | In the EU, Germany has the largest disparity between reported and independently estimated #coal mining emissions.

Non-governmental findings found that 🇩🇪 emits between 28 to 220 times as much as it officially reports.

So many articles about EV sales right now are just repeating what was written somewhere else about a slowdown instead of looking at the data.

Here's a good datapoint:
EVs hit 42% of sales in China in March (retail). Up 30% year on year. April likely heading for 45% share.

Ford, VW, Mercedes with a lot of work to do, Toyota now 4th from the bottom.

Really good chart this from BloombergNEF. It really is that simple (and that complicated).
