The International Energy Agency has raised its forecast for the global growth of wind and solar by 25% compared to Nov 2020 and 40% compared to May 2020 Renewables will account for 90% of all new capacity Via Simon Evans and @carbonbrief carbonbrief.org/exceptional-ne…

For the first time, the latest release of our #CopernicusClimate Change Service seasonal forecast, covering June-October 2021, includes the contribution of Canadian data from Environment Canada to our multi-system. 🇨🇦 Access the charts and data➡️bit.ly/2pgiyTw #C3S

💥HUGE NEWS FOR CLIMATE💥 There International Energy Agency with a clear message: "There is no need for investment in new fossil fuel supply in our net zero pathway" If you invest in new coal, oil, or gas, you do so knowing it is inconsistent with <1.5°C. iea.org/reports/net-ze…

The legacy of the project keeps growing! Congratulations Hannah Bloomfield et al. from Uni of Reading

☀️Do you use ECMWF forecasts? Want to know 🧠what the latest developments are? Want to tell 📢 us what we need to do better? Want to meet 🤝 like minded ECMWF users .. there is still time to register ✍️ for the #UEF2021!

During the project, S2S4E contributed to the #rstats R package 'CStools'. Now a new package 'CSIndicators' has been released to facilitate the calculation of relevant indicators based on sub-seasonal, seasonal and decadal predictions. Find out more➡️cran.r-project.org/web/packages/C…

If you work on #climateservices for #agriculture, #foodsecurity or #energy take a look at the #Rstats R package 'CSIndicators' released by BSC to facilitate the calculation of relevant indicators based on sub-seasonal, seasonal & decadal predictions. ➡cran.r-project.org/web/packages/C…

If any of you are under the impression that our billionaires might succeed in "escaping" to space, while the world burns, let me put those fears to rest with what I know from being the spouse of a NASA flight controller. 🧵

The wind speed in Europe in 2021 compared to the last decades was very low: for 3-5 weeks this summer the speed was consistently low, often the lowest since 1980. Data from Copernicus ECMWF ERA5. Note: weekly wind speed correlates perfectly with wind power generation.

On Tuesday 19 October, we are presenting the lessons learned in S2S4E at the final conference of SECLI-FIRM. Join us at 14:00 UTC! #climateservices #seasonalforecasts 👇Registration below

Com evolucionarà el clima al món des d’ara fins al 2070? Les tendències actuals ens situen el 2070 a un escalfament global d'entre 4 i 5 ºC. Amb un gran canvi global es podria estabilitzar l’escalfament per sota dels 1,5 ºC, considerat llindar de seguretat ccma.cat/324/crisi-clim…

It’s Energy Day at #COP26 The end of coal power is now within sight, and clean power is scaling up. Find out more 👇 #TogetherForOurPlanet

La transición energética a fuentes renovables es crucial para la acción contra el #cambioclimático. El BSC lideró el proyecto S2S4E para ayudar al sector energético a mejorar sus estrategias gracias a predicciones climáticas. #COP26 #ClimateAction youtube.com/watch?v=f_j7rN…

Panel discussion on making the global transition to clean energy a reality at #COP26 "We cannot tackle climate change without revolutionising the way we power our world" UN Climate Change COP26

📢 NEWS: #COP26 is consigning coal to history ✅ 23 countries are making new commitments to phase out coal power, including 5 of the world's top 20 coal power generators. ✅ Planned new coal generation pipeline globally has fallen by 76% since the Paris Agreement in 2015.

To accelerate action in line w/#SDGs & #ParisAgreement, United Nations have been mobilising #EnergyCompacts -voluntary multi-stakeholder commitments on #energy. In close cooperation w/partners, IRENA’s energy compacts cover a broad range of energy: irena.org/newsroom/artic… #ChooseAction
