Denmark spent decades building nearly 5,000 wind turbines
Together, they produced 21.6 TWh in the last 12 months
One nuclear plant in Sweden made 23.3 TWh
Oh, and nuclear runs 24/7 — wind doesn’t
There's one big reason Denmark has some of the most expensive electricity in the world

🤯 Mind blown.
In September, 4,796 Tesla Model Ys were registered in Norway.
That’s more than the next 16 best-selling car models combined.
Not EVs. All cars.
One model vs. the next sixteen.

Hvorfor blir ikke nordmenn rasende? Halvparten av ungdommene våre lærer ikke å lese, og de fleste gir blaffen. Ingen demonstrasjoner, nesten ingen debatter, ingen mister jobben, ingen kaller inn Stortinget til ekstraordinære møter? Hva er i veien med dere, Ine Eriksen Søreide, Jonas Gahr Støre og Sylvi Listhaug?

Der finnische Reaktor #Olkiluoto3 – das pro Megawatt teuerste jemals in Europa errichtete Kraftwerk – hat nach seiner problematischen Bauphase etwas (für Atomkraftgegner sic!) Unerwartetes gezeigt:
Sobald ein Kernkraftwerk in Betrieb ist, läuft es mit einer Zuverlässigkeit und CO₂-Armut, die von keiner anderen Stromquelle erreicht werden; die finnischen Strompreise spiegeln diese Tatsache seit der Inbetriebnahme Monat für Monat wider.
Olkiluoto 3 ging im April 2023 ans Netz, nach einer Bauzeit von 18 Jahren und Kosten von rund 11 Milliarden in Betrieb.
Die Zahlen zu Verzögerung und Kostenüberschreitung sind hinlänglich dokumentiert. Weitaus weniger Beachtung findet jedoch das, was seither geschehen ist.
In den ersten zwölf Monaten des kommerziellen Betriebs erzeugte OL3 9,6 Terawattstunden Strom – das entsprach 98 % der theoretischen Höchstleistung. Ein Kapazitätsfaktor von nahezu 98 % ist nach jedem weltweiten Maßstab und für jede Technologie außergewöhnlich. Damit übertraf der Reaktor die Leistung der beiden bereits bestehenden finnischen Reaktoren, die ihrerseits regelmäßig jährliche Kapazitätsfaktoren von über 90 % erreichen. Im ersten Betriebsjahr lief der Reaktor 340 Tage lang durchgehend, ohne planmäßige oder ungeplante Abschaltung.
Die Auswirkungen auf den Strommarkt waren unmittelbar und erheblich. Die finnischen Großhandelsstrompreise lagen 2023 im Durchschnitt bei 57 Euro pro Megawattstunde – 40 % unter dem Niveau von 2022, das durch die europäische Gaskrise geprägt war. Die kontinuierliche, CO₂-freie Grundlast von 1.600 MW aus OL3 verdrängte rund 6 Millionen Tonnen CO₂, die andernfalls durch Kohle- und Gasimporte entstanden wären.
Der Bau von OL3 war ein warnendes Beispiel. Sein Betrieb ist eine ganz andere Geschichte.

Derfor mener jeg det er høyrisiko og melde inn urealistiske klimamål.
Bordet fanger og plutselig har vi en domstol kjennelse som kan brukes mot Norge og vi må betale en gastronomisk erstatning o.l

Sirkelen er sluttet: En rapport som viser at Frp blir mest hetset ender med en debatt som konkluderer med at Frp må beklage for hets :) Og forøvrig ikke polarisere. Jeg ler meg ihjel.

Ja.
Men legg til at strømprisen i 2026 er drevet i større grad av svak effektbalanse grunnet sol og vindkraft som igjen øker prisen på gasskraftverk.
Slik er det. nettavisen.no/norsk-debatt/s…

In September 1990, my village in Valencia hit 46°C.
It was the exact kind of natural climate volatility this ancient planet has unleashed for billions of years.
Today, Valencia, Rome, and Athens are actually sitting well below their seasonal averages. Yet, the media is in a coordinated meltdown over a standard two-week warm patch in the UK, France, and Belgium.
As a geospatial engineer who wrote a thesis on climatology, I’m positioned better than many to talk about the topic, the entire narrative relies on a broken view of data systems.
The formula is simple: zoom in on a tiny slice of geography, filter out the cool regions that ruin the story, and label a hot afternoon a global catastrophe.
The funniest part is the sheer hubris of the solution.
We are told the Earth's massive climate system operates like a living room thermostat, that if humans just stop CO2 emissions, we can magically freeze the weather at our preferred temperature.
Pretending we can micromanage global macro-cycles with carbon taxes.
But as long as panic funds the machine, and people don’t think by themselves, they’ll keep selling the front-row tickets.

20 years ago, An Inconvenient Truth put climate change at the center of global debate, shaping politics, influencing leaders, and inspiring a generation of activists.
Two decades later, we can assess not just its impact, but its accuracy. Many of the film’s most alarming predictions did not materialize, while many of the policies it inspired have proven costly and ineffective.
The lesson? Panic is a poor guide for public policy. Focusing on innovation, adaptation, and economic development can do far more to help both people and the climate—at a fraction of the cost.

"Vi aner ikke hvor mye klimapolitikken koster, og aner ikke hvor skadelige klimaendringene er, men er helt sikre på at klimapolitikken er billigere enn klimaendringene. Hvis alle land er med, noe de fleste ikke er. Men vi må gjøre det likevel."
Dette sier klimaministeren vår: “Alle sektorer må omstille seg. Ingen slipper unna.” og det gjør han vel vitende om at han ikke har gjort kost/nytte analyser av de norske klimamålene.
Fanatisme.

Elon Musk is about to become a trillionaire
If he agreed to pay just 80% of that as a wealth tax to the EU, the EU government could use its efficient operating experience to fund bicycles with solar panels attached to them for over 40 residents of the Netherlands
Elon is being selfish by not paying the wealth tax

Norsk energipolitikk på sitt beste (verste).
Vannkrafta produserer ganske godt.
Men pumpekraft bruker 40 % av kapasiteten sin på å pumpe vann opp i fjellene igjen.
Veldig lurt hvis det er om å gjøre å bli kvitt strømmen, og gjøre den dyrere.
Dumt ellers.

For the first time in 123 years, Argentina has achieved a sustained fiscal surplus without being in default. We are one of only 5 countries in the world in this position.
