Ghana and China ink a deal for China National Nuclear Company (CNNC) to supply an HPR1000 reactor to Ghana (!) I knew this was working in the background, but I guess I never really expected it to happen for real... Great news for both countries. A 🧵 energynewsafrica.com/ghana-signs-de…
🇦🇪 UAE to build SECOND nuclear plant! Since 2017, they have added more clean energy per capita than any country in the world. This will likely secure their significant lead. Their first plant was called Barakah, “blessing”. What should the next one be called?

It’s pretty safe to assume that we will see one or multiple deals like this announced in Illinois. And when it happens, it could be the equivalent of removing one or multiple nuclear reactors from our grid if they are behind-the-meter.

I founded PRN because there wasn’t any issue I could apply my skills to that was as neglected and impactful. If you’re looking to fund climate advocacy, parking reform has major bang for the buck.

@cornoisseur @HopfJames Time-wise it took ~8yrs/reactor, all 4 of them. From the point of view of sharing building infrastructure and tools I haven't seen anything yet. For the 2 EPRs at HPC UK, the second one has taken advantage of the first one's buildout.
the rebranding of 煎饼 as “chinese burrito” will be great for its popularity and this is why i love america
Good day to go birding, lots of migratory bird movement last night.
@cornoisseur @HopfJames Correct: I just hope they will go for 4 more APR1400. Standardization is key to large scale development of nuclear.

Infra handles are optimistic about all types of infra except one: Bicycle tracks Yes India is hot, but that doesn't mean tree-lined cycling infra can't be built shared with pedestrian paths This is also a win for pedestrians and last mile connectivity for public transport
The bicycle & pedestrian 🚴🚶 infrastructure at Pimple Saudagar & Gurav is surprisingly impressive. Claiming #India is ‘Hot’ country so we can't cycle is NOT a valid argument. Building bicycle infra tailored to the heat is crucial for promoting cycling & tackling #climatechange.
I'm so proud to have worked with Daniel on wide-ranging policies as: - Establishing Chicago's ADU pilot ordinance - Revamping the Affordable Requirements Ordinance - Passing the Connected Communities Ordinance - Approving the fully affordable TOD at 4715 N. Western
💯 @DanielKayHertz is the real deal and Chicago is better for him giving his all in this important role.
I want to honor Daniel Hertz, who is leaving his role as the Department of Housing's Director of Policy, Research, and Legislative Affairs. Our city is a better place because of Daniel's tireless efforts to expand housing affordability and renter protections across Chicago.
@calelectricrail Interestingly, while Stadler says their H2-fueled FLIRT has a 3x longer 460 km (286 mi) range, fueling takes 2x as long as recharging: stadlerrail.com/en/flirt-h2/de… And unlike BEMUs where the pantograph is simply raised (even if in motion!), H2 fueling is FAR more costly & laborious.
