Does Unilateral #Decarbonization Pay For Itself? https://www.nber.org/papers/w33364
TL;DR Yes, for larger economies but no, for smaller ones.

@Eka_FOOF_A batteries and solar would certainly help, but it's not a panacea, and I think given the scale of the increased demand as we decarbonise, the grid IS going to need reinforcing.
Home solar is great, I'm putting panels up myself.
Batteries are great, even without solar they let you cycle loads away from peak hours.
But it's just not going to replace the grid. The increased demand for electricity from the transition to low carbon tech is going to be immense, and lots of it will have to be met by large scale centralised generation, like the scheme in the article.
I could run through the numbers for a typical house if you or anyone else is interested.
The countdown to the official opening of the Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, is on. It passed the six-month mark on October 13. Onsite construction work on facilities at the venue is proceeding at a rapid pace. And the symbolic Osaka Expo 'Grand Ring' has already been completed. It is one of the world's largest wooden structures, with a circumference of approximately two kilometers. However, completion of the international pavilions, which are supposed to be designed and built by participating countries, remains behind schedule. The Japan Association for the 2015 World Exposition, which is preparing and managing the expo, has called
⚡💸 Energy affordability concerns fueled criticism of #decarbonization, amplifying polarized narratives.
📉 During the third wave, sentiment turned negative. Many popular posts became critical of the energy transition, blaming #environmental #policies for the high costs and economic hardship.
