NEW DATA TOOL | Coal mines are a major source of methane. The big culprits could be vastly underreporting their CMM emission. Ember’s new data tool allows you to explore where official data is lacking: https://ember-energy.org/data/coal-mine-methane-data-tracker
🇲🇽 Mexico could stop importing gas from the US thanks to solar power and batteries ☀️🔋 Latin American countries gathering at #XSemanaDeLaEnergía all have the potential to become solar superpowers. @gobdemexico.bsky.social @claudiasheinbaum.bsky.social
Spain’s rapid wind and solar growth has CUT the link between gas and electricity prices 🌪️☀️ 🇪🇸’s decoupling of gas and electricity prices happened faster than in other European countries, making it one of the cheapest power markets in Europe. https://loom.ly/8DEmqVc
In the hottest hours of summer, over one-tenth of Türkiye’s electricity is used for cooling and this share can reach up to 18% on extremely hot days But solar energy peaks at the same time, making ☀️ a KEY solution for maintaining grid stability. ember-energy.org/lat...
The new data explorer from @ember-energy.org is really, really significantly improved --> ember-energy.org/data/electri...
Voilà: is hiring a graphic designer for the first time in 4 years. Rare opportunity to join the team. The job is in Montreal (no remote) and the ad is in French because we work in French and half our projects are in French. Happy to answer questions!

NEW | 74% of the global population lives in countries that are net importers of fossil fuels. 12 countries supply 80% of net fossil fuel exports - with rising trade uncertainty, this puts much of the world at risk. 1/8 🧵 ember-energy.org/lat...
Feels important to point this out today. A milestone reached while Trump was in office.
Ember@ember-energy.org · 2y ago🚨 NEW RECORD | Fossil fuels fell below 50% of US electricity for the first month on record This was driven by solar and wind reaching a record high 📈 In March 2025, solar increased by 37% (+8.3 TWh) and wind by 12% (+5.7 TWh) compared to the year before ↗️ ember-energy.org/dat...
Charting solar power's explosive global growth! From 2019 to 2024, countries have moved right (higher share, %) and up (more solar power, TWh), with the boom spanning small to large power markets. @ember-energy.org's Global Electricity Review is out today! ember-energy.org/latest-insig...
Heat pumps are vastly more efficient than gas heating systems. With the right policies they can also be significantly cheaper from a total cost of ownership perspective. Our new paper on how to make heat pumps the cheapest option.👇 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... Visual @ember-energy.org
Nice to see this graphic of mine still doing the rounds...
Jan Rosenow@janrosenow.bsky.social · 2y agoNot long ago coal provided almost 40% of our electricity. Today it is 0%. Coal’s decline was achieved without switching to gas, driven instead by renewables & demand reduction. Wind and solar experienced massive growth as coal entered terminal decline. @ember-energy.org
EU coal power is on its way out. Solar power is firmly on its way in. And its happening across the EU... solar growth over the last 5 years has been pretty staggering in some countries 🇪🇺📈 (map by @laorso.bsky.social) More EU power sector findings here. New today: ember-energy.org/latest-insig...
EU coal power is on its way out. New Ember report on the state of EU power sector out today, with a round up of findings from 2024: ember-energy.org/latest-insig...
Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…
Lovely, simple, yet insightful analysis of Resident Advisor data.
Clara Murray@claradoodle.bsky.social · 2y agoA fun one for NYE - I looked at club listings going back a decade in 15 cities to show that the trend for dance events to end earlier is global - with UK cities seeing some of the biggest shifts 📉🪩 Who killed the rave? (Gift link) on.ft.com/3PhQuY7
