‘Crude imports plunged 41% from a year ago to 29 million tons in June — the smallest volume purchased by China in almost a decade.’ www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
NEW | Solar generated a QUARTER of EU electricity in June 🇪🇺⚡️ Solar was also the single largest source of power generation (25%) ahead of nuclear (21%), gas (15%) and wind (14%). Five years ago, in 2021, solar was still at 10% in June.
‘There is a window - call it borrowed time - between the moment the second derivative rolls over and the moment the first derivative crosses zero. During that window everything looks fine... And the machine is already broken; it simply has not been told yet.’ www.groundbrkr.com/p/the-second...
The Second Derivative: Why No One Understands the AI Boom
The market misremembers 2008. That same blind spot sits at the center of the AI boom.

Solar's sharp rise continues. As of April 2026, global solar capacity now exceeds 3 terawatt. 1 gigawatt → 1 terawatt: 20+ years 1 terawatt → 2 terawatt: 33 months 2 terawatt → 3 terawatt: 19 months
The English press release with the first images of asteroid Torifune captured by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft is now live! (I translated, the ISAS PR lead checked it while practically running from the press conference, and someone at JAXA HQ stayed late enough to upload 😆 HIGH-FIVES ALL AROUND!)

"Turkey got 72% of its May power from renewables as coal sank to a 22-year low." Coal fell to 17% of Turkey's electricity. Wind and solar were 23% of Turkey's power in May and are growing. Hydro surged in May due to substantial rainfall. www.msn.com/en-us/money/... #energysky
Another new battery output record yesterday in CAISO, hitting 12.62 GW Battery output during evening peak hours is now already more than half midday solar output. The sun shines at night in California's grid.

Put wind or solar on the land that grows ethanol corn. Run electric vehicles off the power. Use 99% less land per mile driven, at far lower cost. Let farmers use the freed-up land to do actual farmer stuff, like growing real food for humans and being good custodians of land for future generations.
Richard Waite@waiterich.bsky.social · 2mo agoAlso E15 cost savings are an illusion. Yes E15 currently costs less per gallon at the pump but 1) it’s less energy dense so cars don’t go as far per gallon & 2) it’s more corrosive so gas stations would have to upgrade tanks/pumps & would likely pass on costs to consumers, raising prices at the pump
