🌍🌱 European Power Generation Greener Than Ever! 🌱🌍 In the first half of 2024, Europe has achieved a remarkable milestone with over 50% of its electricity coming from renewable sources, complemented by a stable 24% from nuclear power. This surge in clean energy is a testament to the continent's accelerated decarbonization efforts, positioning it at the forefront of the global energy transition. However, with electricity demand declining due to economic factors, there's a pressing need for policies to boost demand and sustain investments in green energy. #powergeneration #news #electricity #greenenergy #power #decarbonisation #sustainableenergy #renewconsultancy Read more:

🌍 RGREEN INVEST: Powering Europe with Renewable Energy 🌞 RGREEN INVEST has financed over 3000 renewable energy projects across Europe. That’s 4.7GW of clean energy projects either up and running or ready for construction, equivalent to the power generated by four nuclear reactors. 🍃💡 While nuclear power plants tend to operate about 70% of the time, renewable energy parks only operate at around 15% to 20%, and intermittently. This can pose challenges for grid stability. RGREEN INVEST has a solution. To address the intermittency of renewable energy sources and to help stabilise the grid, we've made substantial investments in lithium battery storage systems.🔋⚡ These battery storage systems act as a crucial bridge, storing excess energy generated during peak times and releasing it when demand is high, ensuring a consistent and reliable power supply. In order to decarbonize the energy mix, RGREEN INVEST has also invested into electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. Our EV charging infrastructure supports the growth of electric vehicles, making sustainable transportation more accessible and convenient for everyone. 🚗🔌 At RGREEN INVEST, we're committed to a greener, more sustainable future. Our investments in renewable energy and grid stability solutions are driving Europe closer to a cleaner and more resilient energy landscape. Together, we can make a significant impact on our planet and create a brighter future for generations to come. 🌿🌏 Read the full ESG & Impact report 👉 https://urlz.fr/onnQ #RGREENINVEST #ESG #ResponsibleFinance #ClimateChange #EnergyTransition

There are two bottlenecks to rolling out Advanced Nuclear at scale, which we will need lots of, alongside renewables, to fully decarbonize the energy supply to the global economy. The first is a permitting bottleneck - it is laborious and expensive to gain permits to deploy nuclear around the world. We addressed this at length at #CERAWeek this week and believe we can significantly enhance the speed and scale of the industry's permitting operations with targeted use of specialist Generative AI. Congratulations and well done to Henning Kilset, Neeraj Joshi, Darryl Willis and the whole team at #CERAWeek and behind the scenes to light up the impactful technology on show. The second bottleneck is the deadlock between the capital required to build mass-manufacturing capacity for SMRs and the need for a book of orders for SMRs which the manufacturing capacity would crank out. The announcement below is intended to go some way to removing this bottleneck - creating up front demand for Advanced Nuclear and other 24/7 Carbon Free energy sources so together we can push the cost boulder up and over the top of the mountain so it can begin rolling down the other side - achieving a virtuous cycle of lower costs, which stimulate higher demand, which increases economy of scale, which lower costs.. and so on. Similar to Solar's cost trajectory over the last 15 years. Congratulations to Taylor Leyden, Adrian Anderson and the team who worked on this, and to Terra Praxis, P. Todd Noe and others who have championed this direction of travel. COP28 in Dubai has been called the 'Nuclear COP' - the year the world woke up to the need and opportunity of new nuclear to meet the world's increasing energy demand with firm, clean power. I'm happy to say the same was true for #CERAWeek this year. There was a strong focus on nuclear throughout. It is clear that significant momentum is building around Advanced Nuclear. Let's get the bottlenecks cleared and realize the opportunity it is presenting us all. https://lnkd.in/eaEK72jT

Yes, what Conor Kelly said for the private sector. We also need our government leaders & regulators to modernize in kind. Imagine when the nuclear regulatory licensure pipelines are highly automated, inclusive of GenAI capabilities with humans in the proper loops for accuracy, safety and review. #Microsoft has done amazing work to bootstrap one element of automation with the NRC. We need more of this! Come on public sector, we need you to be part of the solution here, this is how you scale and partner to meet global demand.

Europe’s journey towards a cleaner energy future reached a significant milestone in the first half of 2024, with renewables accounting for over 50% of all power generation and nuclear energy maintaining a stable share of 24%. This remarkable achievement is highlighted in the latest data from Eurelectric’s Electricity Data Platform (ELDA). However, the challenge of low power demand persists, influenced by sluggish economic growth, deindustrialization, and mild weather conditions. Addressing this demand issue is crucial to sustaining investments in clean energy generation. Read More: https://lnkd.in/eQAJsz2N #cleanenergy #sustainable #eu #energy #nuclear

On this Earth Day 2024, I thought I'd share a few facts about the transition of the electric power sector in America -- and how much has been accomplished toward a low-carbon economy. #EEI #IEI #energytransition #climatechange Did you know.... > The U.S. electric sector has reduced CO2 emissions 41% from 2005 to 2023 > 1,747 TWh --> The amount of carbon-free electricity generated in 2023, which accounts for just over 40% of all electricity generated that year. > 23% -->How much lower power sector CO2 emissions were in 2023 relative to the transportation sector. Ten years ago, the power sector was the largest emitter. > 44% --> The percent of carbon-free energy generated by the 54 commercially operating nuclear power plants in the US

Czechia, historically a strongly industrial country, has shaped its energy sector. The energy mix has significantly diversified, with the highest share still coming from fossil fuels. The integration of nuclear energy, following the construction of the first nuclear power plant in the 1980s, has led to a halving of CO2 emissions, a significant environmental achievement. Notably, there has been a substantial increase in energy generation from renewable sources, a commendable achievement for Czechia, with this value more than doubling in the past 15 years.
