Upgrading grids is key to creating a robust and resilient power infrastructure ready for a decarbonised economy. For every euro spent on #renewable power generation, an equivalent amount should be allocated to upgrading #PowerGrid. €600 billion is needed in europe by 2030!!

The "What we need to achieve" is very clear and dramatic, but the issue is the "how to achieve it" and the undertanding of the socio-economic consequences #emissions #climatechange

In the US there are ~8000 projects waiting in interconnection queues, with a total generation capacity of over 1,000 GW. Reforms are needed in the permitting process to reduce these bottlenecks and facilitate the integration of more clean technology into the power grid.

Currently, there is 4,000 GW of renewable capacity installed worldwide BUT only 1/3 has proper monitoring systems. Imagine the result: frequent breakdowns, lack of maintenance, and low efficiency.

#EnergyTransition ?? The world’s use of #coal rose by 2.6% in 2023 to reach an all-time high, driven by strong growth in China and India, the two largest coal consumers globally according to the IEA’s Coal Mid-Year Update.

Energy transition is highly dependent on #minerals but according to World Mining Data, European mining production has decreased 31% since 2000 and represents now only 6.7% of global production. Our dependence is increasing!!!

We need to educate consumers!! A recent Boston Consulting Group report shows that Customer-centric energy transitions can move 2-5 times faster than supply-led #EnergyTransition

The % of > 15 years old vehicles in Spain has increased from 4% in 2005 to 42% in 2023 We have a dangerously aging vehicle fleet that has higher emissions. Let’s rethink the schemes to renew the fleet rather than just incentivize EV for affluent people AOP
