NEW PAPER: Why the 'Fabric First' dogma is out of date and needs a radical rethink. With our paper we want to provoke and start a discussion rather than provide all the answers. More in this 🧵 Paper with @ecioxford @UCL_Energy @NTUadbe in @BuildingsCities

Green hydrogen for domestic heating!? It would need 4-5 more renewable electricity than a heat pump. How can this be ever justified? Excellent work from the University of Aberdeen’s Professor Tom Baxter @aberdeenuni #heatpumps #allelectriceu #electrifynow #hydrogen – at Etterbeek, België

How far do you need to drive an electric vehicle until it reduces carbon emissions compared to a petrol or diesel car? With the current electricity mix in Germany it is 40,000km. Great graphic by @martindopp @KITKarlsruhe.

Major new German hydrogen study by @oekoinstitut for @StiftungKlima. Key role seen in industry, electricity system balancing, aviation & shipping. Very limited role for hydrogen in transport and buildings. oeko.de/publikationen/p-deta… THREAD 1/6

"Electrify what can be electrified", says @TimmermansEU at the @Eurogas_Eu annual conference. I will talk about the options in heating later today. In short: #heatpump technologies are ready for all applications. Today.

Economy-wide electrification⚡️ leads to a reduction in energy consumption, steady growth in electric load, and reduction in CO2 emissions. For more #electrification benefits see electrificationstrategy.eu/f… #ElectrificationStrategyEU #InternetOfThings #GreenRecovery

An EV bought four years ago in the Netherlands is now running 30% cleaner than when it rolled off the line.
In 2019 produceerde NL elektriciteit met gemiddeld 370 gram CO2 per kWh (44 Mton in totaal) De CO2 daalt gestaag door groei hernieuwbaar en sluiting kolencentrales. In 2019 extra reductie door goedkoop aardgas & hoge CO2 prijs, waardoor kolen-power te duur werd. #grafiekvandedag

#Photovoltaic power has reached 2.9% share of electricity demand and saves 1.6% of global GHG emissions. Not negligible any more and counting. @IEA_PVPS has published its Trends Report iea-pvps.org/index.php?id=tr… and we have run a briefing webinar youtube.com/watch?v=Ph9AW2PE…

Investing in #emobility, the Irish postal services achieve: 👉 48 to 100% of carbon savings 👉 Over 50% of cost savings 👉 9 to 63% of energy savings Are we making things "as simple as possible, but not simpler"? #Power4Climate decarbeurope.org/2019/09/23/…

Ditte Juul-Jørgensen, DG Energy Director-General @Energy4Europe detailed analysis on what climate neutral Europe means is under way. The first assessments shows the need to go lot further on #electrification by doubling the use of electricity by 2050. #power4climate #DecarbEurope

An all-electric energy system by 2050 is possible! A new study concludes that the #EnergyTransition to 100% #RenewableEnergy is feasible and cost-effective - It could reduce GHG emissions in the energy system to 0%. #DecarbEurope via ⁦@DenzilKWalton⁩ leonardo-energy.info/2019/08…
