The International Energy Agency’s bombshell new report on renewables has incredibly good news. For example, solar is undergoing a mega boom & may surpass coal by 2027 Below is a 🧵 on genuinely good news on green energy from the IEA & beyond (1/22) Cc: Noah Smith 🐇 Jesse D.

Javier Blas We shall invest more in shifting the load to periods when there is more wind/solar. There is simply no other way - renewables are intermittent by nature.
Resharing this graph from I'm @Ketanjoshi.co on Bluesky - might help to contextualise some of the debate about the UK firing up coal plants right now.
1 Baseload is dead 2 Wind and solar are cheapest electricity almost everywhere 3 Batteries can fill most supply gaps more cheaply than “peaking” plants 4 We must deploy the technologies we have today to go net zero fastest Facts, via Michael Liebreich - @MLiebreich.bsky.social economist.com/by-invitation/… #climate
Comment about the pricing of new Octopus Energy Flux tariff. 20p off peak seems high. But only because we got used to 5p on Go. Over the past year, every 30 min slot at average "Wholesale" prices has been >14p, even overnight. Can't expect Octopus to buy at 15p & sell at 10p?
