Odločitev podjetja Alfi Renewables, da se izogne investicijam v Sloveniji zaradi dolgotrajnih postopkov in izzivov na trgu, se je izkazala za uspešno, saj so se osredotočili na projekte v drugih državah regije, kjer uspešno razvijajo obnovljive vire energije. #obnovljiviViri #sončneElektrarne #vetrnaEnergija

Odločitev, da v Sloveniji ne investiramo, se je izkazala za pravilno

🇩🇪🇦🇹 Germany and Austria: Return to Nuclear Energy. Europe needs secure, affordable and reliable electricity. Nuclear energy should once again become a pillar of our energy strategy alongside renewables. Energy security means national security. ✅ Lower energy imports ✅ https://t.co/NPQlLeOgpx #NuclearEnergy #EnergySecurity #Renewables #DE #AT

"The grid is really the bottleneck we are facing right now for industry and for households." 🔌 Reinier Koppelaar, @Ministerie_EZK, on why electrification only works if renewables & grid expansion move together.

What a symbol for US decline! While July 4th parades had to be canceled due to extreme heat 🥵, while China and most of the world invest in renewables as they’re the cheapest, the US Energy Secretary is ‘thrilled’ to regurgitate fossil fuel propaganda. 🤯 #globalwarming https://t.co/A1UmX9pgI4 #ClimateCrisis #FossilFuels #RenewableEnergy #US #CN

„Ignitis renewables“ pristato elektros energijos kaupiklių sistemas kaip svarbų žingsnį užtikrinant saugią ir žalią energetikos ateitį Lietuvoje, nes jos leidžia efektyviai panaudoti atsinaujinančią energiją, subalansuoti gamybą ir vartojimą, bei didina energetikos sistemos patikimumą. #AtsinaujinantiEnergija #ElektrosEnergijosKaupikliai #ŽaliojiEnergetika

The clean energy future is already here. Renewables are the cheapest, fastest and most reliable source of new power. But the transition is still not fast & fair enough. This is our moment of choice, truth & opportunity to truly supercharge a global clean energy transition. #CleanEnergy #Renewables #EnergyTransition #Nospecificcountrycodesfoundinthetweet.

For climate, this is the best of times & the worst of times. The worst – because climate impacts are intensifying & the energy crisis has exposed the deep risks of dependence on fossil fuels. The best – because the renewables revolution is well underway. We have the enormous https://t.co/jVKWM5RWMi #ClimateCrisis #RenewableEnergy #FossilFuels #Nocountrycodesfound.

Why are electricity prices still so high when more & more of our power is coming from cheap renewables like #wind & #solar? 🧐 Check out Just Have a Think's latest video for a deep dive into the strange way #electricity markets actually work 👇 https://t.co/Aephmh5wGn #RenewableEnergy #ElectricityPrices #JustHaveAThink #Nospecificcountriesarementionedinthetweet.

The world cannot live without fossil fuels. Countries should be judged on how they invest in renewables.

Southern energy corridors set to dominate supplies to Europe, global leaders say

🇱🇹 A new Euronews article highlights Lithuania’s rapid shift from energy dependence to resilience. In five years, renewables rose from 15% to 50% of consumption, while solar and wind covered 84% of demand in April, driving the country toward 100% green power by 2028. https://t.co/77TYDRMcdo #Lithuania #RenewableEnergy #GreenPower #LT

Africa holds 60% of the world's best solar potential & receives only 2% of global clean energy investment. With the right finance, the continent could generate 10 times more electricity than it needs by 2040 – entirely from renewables.

RT @Tw_timerAlder: Renewables have made Spain one of the lowest prices for wholesale electricity. This will be repeated across the world. #RenewableEnergy #ElectricityPrices #Sustainability #ES

The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) reports that the rapid decline in battery storage costs—over 90% since 2010—has enabled renewable energy sources like solar and wind to provide reliable, round-the-clock electricity at competitive prices compared to fossil fuels, challenging the long-held belief that renewables couldn't meet energy demands when weather conditions are unfavorable. #RenewableEnergy #BatteryStorage #CleanPower #IR #EU #CN #RU #US #IS #DK #FI #FR #SE #SK

Despite the economic strain caused by the US-Israel war in Iran, which has led to rising living costs and disrupted energy supplies, several sectors—including oil and gas, banking, defense, and renewables—are experiencing record profits as companies capitalize on market volatility and increased demand. #Economy #EnergyMarket #ConflictImpact #US #IL #IR #EU #GB #CA #DK #CN

From oil giants to banks: The companies making billions from the Iran war

A recent report from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) reveals that the costs of battery storage have plummeted over 90% since 2010, enabling renewable energy sources like solar and wind, when paired with storage, to provide reliable, round-the-clock electricity at competitive prices compared to traditional fossil fuels, effectively challenging the long-standing notion that renewables cannot meet continuous energy demands. #RenewableEnergy #BatteryStorage #CleanPower #IR #EU #CN #RU #US #IS #DK #FI #FR #SE #SK

Why batteries are changing the renewables debate

EU Climate Commissioner Wopke Hoekstra emphasized the need for the European Union to accelerate its transition to homegrown energy sources to combat energy crises exacerbated by geopolitical turmoil in regions such as Iran and Ukraine, urging for increased investment in electrification, renewables, and infrastructure modernization to relieve dependency on external fossil fuels and protect citizens from rising energy prices. #EnergyTransition #RenewableEnergy #SustainableFuture #IR #UA #EU #US #NO #UK #CA #AU #JP #LA #AFR #AS

Europe needs to be more radical on the energy crisis. But how? EU Climate Commissioner explains
