- Six years ago I wrote this. "Estimates predict the cost of storage alone could drop 80 percent by 2040. Who wants to own a gas power plant in 2040 knowing that?" That was quick!
- Good morning with good news: Average price of lithium ion battery packs plunged to $115 USD/kWh in 2024, a 20% cost reduction from 2023. and down 84% from a decade ago. So, battery deployment skyrocketed 67%/year over the last decade to 69 GW in 2024. #energysky ember-energy.org/app/uploads/...

- This is ridiculous. The EU isn't going to do anything to lower methane emissions from US oil and gas production. This article even notes that shipments of LNG from the US typically have higher methane emissions. The only thing the EU can do is lower their standards. Seems like that is the plan.
