The expansion of the Synchronous Condenser market is one of underreported stories in energy, primarily because it's about spinning bits of metal hidden in sheds with no exciting planning battles involved. /1
As Ireland links more wind turbines and shuts down thermal powerplants, it needs to synchronise all that variable power and add back inertia to the grid lost from decommissioned plants. So: The world's largest flywheel, 130 tons, & synchronous condensor installed in Moneypoint.

It’s reprehensible to slur people who agree that climate change is happening as being guilty of “climate denial” because they advocate a different policy response to the one you prefer.
The most insidious form of climate denial is no longer, "It's not happening," but the belief that incremental or tech solutions will solve this crisis. 1/6
