The Germans have been burning and releasing the effluent of dirty, US coal, since March 2011, due to the Fukushima core meltdown and rad release. I understand they have been seeking to restart the uranium 235 plants. Here is a UK Telegraph article I am suspicious about. I am suspicious that its untrue, and suspicious that it is true. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/10916086/The-scandal-of-fiddled-global-warming-data.html In any case, if the volcanos under the Antarctic western shelf, are melting ice, then, not even the powers of Obama, like King Canute, can command the tides. We still need to fatten up solar and wind, and this won't work unless the storage thing, and maybe the transmission thing gets resolved. -----Original Message----- From: LizR <lizj...@gmail.com> To: everything-list <everything-list@googlegroups.com> Sent: Mon, Jun 23, 2014 12:27 am Subject: Re: Germany sets record for peak energy use - 50 percent comes from solar (Update)
Cool! (So to speak) On 23 June 2014 16:25, 'Chris de Morsella' via Everything List <everything-list@googlegroups.com> wrote: Thought this bit of news was interesting. Yes… it was a holiday, but still more than half of a summer day peak demand of the major European economy coming from solar electricity, is a pretty major milestone. Chris http://phys.org/news/2014-06-germany-day-energy-percent-solar.html The Fraunhofer ISE research institute has announced that Germany set a record high for solar use on June 9—on that day the country's solar power output rose to 23.1 GW—50.6 percent of all electricity demand. The record occurred over a holiday, which meant less demand, but it still marks a major step forward for the world's solar power leader. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
