Landfill Panic vs System Reality: What Wind & Solar Actually Displace
Claims about wind turbines and solar panels filling landfills are circulating again, often framed as a rediscovered flaw in clean energy that somehow offsets its benefits. The argument is familiar. Wind turbine blades are large, solar panels contain glass and metals, and at the end of their lives these materials … [continued]

400 km Wasserstoffpipeline ohne Nutzer wird Deutschlands Strompreise erhöhen*
Deutschland hat kürzlich den ersten rund 400 km langen Abschnitt seines nationalen Wasserstoff-Backbones fertiggestellt und unter Druck gesetzt. Die Leitungen liegen im Boden, die Verdichter funktionieren, und das System ist technisch betriebsbereit. Es gibt nur ein Problem. Es sind keine nennenswerten Wasserstofflieferanten angeschlossen und keine relevanten Abnehmer vertraglich gebunden. Es … [continued]

Adoption of Electric Vehicles Tied to Real-World Reductions in Air Pollution, Study Finds
Using satellite data, Keck School of Medicine of USC researchers reported the first statistically significant decrease in nitrogen dioxide linked to zero-emissions vehicles. When California neighborhoods increased their number of zero-emissions vehicles (ZEV) between 2019 and 2023, they also experienced a reduction in air pollution. For every 200 vehicles added, … [continued]
