Producing and recycling solar with solar is the real game changer. Then energy becomes really abundant and sustainable.
Producing and recycling solar with solar is the real game changer. Then energy becomes really abundant and sustainable.
While you're arguing about: "The Sun doesn't shine at night" "Nuclear's too expensive" "We can't make that many batteries" China is: - building more solar than the rest of the world combined - building more nuclear than the rest of the world combined - building more batteries…
THIS is how we get back to building! More than 100 high school kids are competing in a masonry competition in North Carolina and are crushing it.

I don’t think people are fully grasping how incredible it is that rents are FALLING in one of America’s most popular cities. We were told this wasn’t possible!

I see this kind of take a lot, but it’s wrong. We can make a way bigger impact than 15% We sell millions of tons of coal to India and China. We could be selling green steel, solar panels, batteries, and EVs instead. We can’t “control” what China or India do, but we don’t have…

can hardly believe how cheap the pricing is for solar panels. for like $80 (in bulk) you can get a 2.4m x 1.3m bifacial panel that's 665 W peak. solar walls / fences economical? 👀

@zaugurz @JessePeltan A lot of people *are* doing it, but there's still ignorance and cultural stubbornness. It's a matter of time though. My system paid for itself a while ago vs. grid rates, I've never had an outage, and energy independence is a great feeling. Would never go back.
@zaugurz @JessePeltan My home is 100% off-grid solar powered. I installed my small system four years ago, when prices of panels and storage were somewhat higher, but I recently bought 10 kW worth of panels that will power heavy appliances and charge electric vehicles.
Producing and recycling solar with solar is the real game changer. Then energy becomes really abundant and sustainable.
The turning point in the Industrial Revolution was not when we started mining coal. It's when we started mining coal - with coal. Carting coal with horses wasn't a huge leap forward from carting wood. Coal-powered railways and coal-powered mining created the feedback loop that…

@itssanman @JessePeltan @AlecStapp Pretty sure he's referring to 1% of what strikes the earth. That wouldn't require 138 earths. Earth's solar resource is 173,000 TW. Capturing just 1% of that would 100x humanity's energy supply.” x.com/JessePeltan/st…
I don't think people appreciate the dimensions solar is improving in. Conversion efficiency isn't the full story. Yes, conversion efficiency doubled (~10% -> 20%) in the last 20 years, but silicon use per watt fell by 87%! (16g/W -> 2g/W) Longi now has cells that use just half…
@JessePeltan That's basically a recipe for solar + batteries.
I don’t think people are fully grasping how incredible it is that rents are FALLING in one of America’s most popular cities. We were told this wasn’t possible!
Here's a great visualization: Austin's rent relative to the country (@zillow's measure) is now the lowest it has been in at least a decade.
Pretty effectively knocks on the head any arg that solar uses too much land.
More than 6,000 sheep now call Australia’s largest solar farm home reneweconomy.com.au/?p=205396
How can an economy build solar and batteries without fossil fuels? is as silly as How can Ford make cars without horses? See below.
The world is just beginning to see solar’s potential. A lot of people didn’t see coal coming when it was mined by hand and carted by horses. The supply chain for solar is already mostly powered by electricity. That electricity is increasingly coming from solar. Cheap solar…
