- Reposted by Chris LittlecottIn 2000 95% of Poland's electricity was from coal. Today it is 51%. Total coal generation in TWh dropped by 36%. Source is new @ember-energy.org European Electricity Review.
- Multiple rapid EV chargers in central Milton Keynes have had charging cables cut and stolen. Right next to shopping centre so surely covered by CCTV. When does a dangerous theft become infrastructure sabotage?

- Reposted by Chris LittlecottUsing old coal mines to heat homes? Gateshead is doing it. Their mine-water project—the UK’s largest—draws 15°C water from boreholes, uses heat pumps to boost it to 80°C, and sends that heat through an underground network. The system now warms 350+ homes and 23 buildings.
- Reposted by Chris LittlecottHuge news from the UK today: after UN climate talks in which there was a massive fight over language on fossil fuels, the UK government today announced that it will in fact be keeping many millions of barrels of oil & gas in the ground. Deeds rather than just words for a change! 🧵

- The mass deployment of district heating for UK cities fed by the warm waters of old coal mines would be both practical and poetic. We can’t turn back the clock, but we can honour the past as we build a cleaner future. inews.co.uk/news/environ...

- A reminder that Oil & Gas companies lobbied hard against this CO2 storage requirement. O&G interests love to hide behind the idea of future CCS, but fight against regulations that would make it a reality in the here and now. Look at what they do, not what they say!
