Circular Economy: US nuclear hires more lobbyists to get more subsidies

I've been to many European Maritime Days over the last decade; nice to be traveling to one in Ireland this week. Please give me a message if you'd like to talk! #EMD2025

The end of the internal combustion engine? Global sales of petrol and diesel cars peaked in 2017/18 and are now falling. The shift to electric and low-carbon transport is well underway—and EV sales are rising fast.

To all the reply guys saying how renewables are a terrible idea. I hate to break it to you but >90% of new generation capacity built is now renewable energy, mainly solar & wind. Data from IRENA

Amazing combination of business innovation and technology innovation. Fair play Octopus Energy

no matter what you're going through, just be thankful you're not on this train

Chinese companies installed 93 gigawatt of solar and 27 gigawatt of wind energy in a single month in May theguardian.com/world/2025/jun…

So, we’re gonna tell our kids we looked at this, shrugged, & carried on as normal?

Just had my 7-year reminder that one third of the EU budget is CAP

The IEA projects data centre power demand to more than double by 2030. Global investment in data centres has nearly doubled since 2022 - half a trillion dollars in 2024. A massive opportunity for economies with the ability to scale renewables and grid infrastructure quickly.

Germany's emissions intensity of electricity generation fell to an all-time low in June 2025 of 262 gCO2e/kWh 🇩🇪⚡️ The reasons: - Record high solar (31%) - June record for wind (27%) - Record low coal (12.4%)

Offshore wind has had a tough couple of years, but the fundamentals are shifting now towards an upcycle: - Cheaper money: Euro short term rate has nearly halved in 12 months - Cheaper inputs: Steel is down nearly 50% from its pandemic highs five years ago

- Oil price: Sustained low oil prices have historically correlated with investment into renewables as investors seek value - Value: lower prices for assets this year is showing good value for those investors Lets see where this goes over the next 12.

Three and a half BILLION to invest in the electricity grid announced in today's revised National Development Plan. A stronger grid means more clean, affordable and secure power for Irish families and businesses. Big win to get over the line by Minister Darragh O'Brien.

This is the greatest argument I’ve heard for why electric vehicles are better than gasoline-powered cars.

This brought a little lightness to my morning.

I absolutely swear I am not one for conspiracy theories....but this looks like a deepfake vid to me? Extraordinary.

Out and about today at Galway Climate Festival Festival. Karen Coleman chairing this session on Galway’s plan to be a Renewable City in the beautiful Mick Lally theatre

Attending the launch of Ireland’s National Maritime Area Plan for ORE in Spanish Point

Great piece of policy this. Gas prices have driven wholesale prices sky high in recent years, and the more cheap renewables we can get on to the grid, the more they get pushed out.
