With a name like that, how could you possibly not manage variable, renewable and dynamic electricity prices wisely?

🍺 Produire de la bière avec l'un des meilleurs bilans carbone du marchĂ© : voici comment on s'y prend Ă  la Brasserie du Slalom. L'essentiel de notre Ă©nergie vient du renouvelable. Mais au-delĂ  de la source, c'est quand on consomme qui change tout. Le principe est simple : la production photovoltaĂŻque est maximale en journĂ©e. C'est donc le moment oĂą l'Ă©nergie est la plus abondante… et la moins chère. Notre installation est pilotĂ©e pour caler nos process Ă©nergivores sur ces crĂ…

When wind turbines become visible, support for renewable energy can decline
The expansion of renewable energy is a cornerstone of climate policy. While wind energy is widely supported in principle, people living near wind turbines often experience the local consequences of the energy transition directly. A new study by researchers at Leipzig University now shows that the visibility of wind turbines can reduce support for renewable energy policies under certain circumstances. Published in the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, the study examines how visi…

Ukraine's energy revolution is being powered by women leaders and local communities. Through initiatives like 100 Solar Schools and 50 Solar Hospitals, the country is building resilience with decentralized renewable systems—solar panels and batteries that keep critical infrastructure running even during conflict. This shift toward energy independence shows how sustainable power can be a security strategy.

Women’s leadership is everywhere in Ukraine
This week Women in Solar+ Europe gives voice to Yuliana Onishchuk, founder and CEO of the Charitable organisation Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation. She explains how Russia’s full-scale invasion transformed solar energy in Ukraine from a green technology into a vital tool for survival, powering hospitals, schools, and communities during blackouts and attacks. Through the Energy Act for Ukraine Foundation, decentralized renewable energy and women-led initiatives are helping build resilience, p…

Renewable energy just broke a 100-year-old streak
In 2025, renewables produced more of the world’s electricity than coal for the first time since 1919. Solar alone met three-quarters of new demand.

Amusingly @… inspired to me to try IPv6 one-more time with Verizon FiOS on my Debian router (something that has never worked for me)..and I got it going. Verizon's IPv6 documentation is basically only available through hear-say and rumors.. Their situation is so weird. Anyway I shared some tips and sloppy reflection in a quick blog post.

Wat de rest van de aflevering betreft... Er is in 40 jaar werkelijk helemaal niets veranderd. (Behalve dan dat gesodemieter van Trump op het moment, wat een rimpeling in de geschiedenis gaf)

What does a fleet of Buzzies get up to when they’re not out and about on the job? They charge and discharge their batteries and trade kWh on the energy exchange.
I bet they're feeling really bullish on renewable energy!

V2G im Realbetrieb: Enercity vermarktet Strom aus E‑Auto-Batterien an der Strombörse - electrive.net
Enercity hat in Hannover Strom aus mehreren bidirektional angebundenen Elektrofahrzeugen ins öffentliche Netz eingespeist und an der Strombörse vermarktet.

Australian #V2G pilot with Amber will grow from 50 to 1,000 participants, initially with BYD EVs but the scheme may expand to other car brands. BYD provides full warranty for bidirectional charging as part of the project.

ARENA expands Amber project to accelerate vehicle-to-grid rollout in Australia
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) is boosting its support for Amber Electric to help take vehicle‑to‑grid (V2G) technology to the next stage in Australia. ARENA is providing an additional $13.6 million in funding to expand Amber’s EV charging project, bringing total funding to $16...

Students make all kinds of educational fumbles because of this metaphor: cramming for tests, focusing on quantity of information over quality of experience, overvaluing passive-receptive consumption-shaped learning and undervaluing sustained, productive struggle, etc etc.
But it’s not just education, as the article shows.
I could ramble on, but it’s time for a TV show with my wife — so I leave the detailed analysis of this remarkable clause as an exercise for the reader:
“Some of the company’s most experienced personnel left before all of their accumulated knowledge could be fully transferred into Ford’s automated systems.”
Spot the metaphor, and bonus points for teasing out what the passive voice there hides.
