Imagine someone saying:
"It's a good thing that in our company we have some strategic efficiency reserves that we can tap into to boost productivity in times of need."
It's so nonsensical, I love it.
On a side note: German minister for energy Katherina #Reiche is an absolute disgrace. Every day she's in office is (in the best case) a missed chance to drive #renewableenergy and #sustainability . Most days she seems to be more busy undermining the transition to #greenenergy (thus shoving money to her previous employers) than doing anything more sensible (like playing #minesweeper ).
Carnet de bord n°5 : Overcoming barriers to a clean energy future in the Global South
So, what are these barriers ?

"Frankfurt Airport would need a hydrogen truck arriving every 44 seconds to meet its fuel demands. Alternatively, we could build two to three nuclear reactors at every major airport to produce hydrogen on-site."

OR, all that empty green space around the airport could be covered in solar panels, and an electrolysis plant built there to turn that solar energy directly into hydrogen.
(1/?)
Global renewable energy capacity is now 49.4%, but fossil fuel generation went up too. This is different from last year's trend.
