  1. Like for every country, note that this is only grid generation, and self-consumption by households and firms isn’t counted there

    combined grid generation share from solar+ wind was 19%

    the bottleneck is now the capacity of the grid to take up so much solar + wind

    on a similar note, I’m really impressed how fast solar water heaters have taken off in Romania

    when i went home to see my parents this summer , i observed while driving around the village that 1 in 15-20 houses now have solar water heaters, in comparison to 2022 there were like 1 in 100

    solar water heaters are dirt cheap in Romania, our neighbors got a system with a boiler for 80 liters of water for 400 euros, installation included in the cost

    my family plans to get one in 2025 as well, but we can barely find an installer for it 🙁

  2. We need to bring back coal power in big scale for some time and introduce nuclear to phase out coal

    Solar and wind is expensive garbage
