For years, coal lobbyists have been saying we needed the dirty fossil fuel for when the wind didn’t blow or the sun didn’t shine. We always knew that was a lie. For years, Donald Trump tried to prop up a dying industry. And now the market has proved them both wrong. And there will be no going back.
As yet another British nuclear plant is scrapped, the renewables industry says it is ready to come to the rescue to help the UK deliver low carbon energy.
An analysis by the SUN DAY Campaign of both historic and recent data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) suggests that while progress has been made on some fronts since the 1973 Arab oil embargo, in other ways America's energy situation may have actually worsened over the past 45 years.
Donald Trump can’t stop the sun from shining
Last week, the newly imposed Trump tariffs on foreign-manufactured solar panels came into effect.
Climate denying, President Trump has yet again shown his anti-green credentials by trying to undermine the US solar industry.
According to a new analysis of data, last year solar was the “star performer” in terms of new electricity generation, as renewables once again outstripped fossil fuels.
April 21 2017, will go down as a significant day in the dying days of the fossil fuel era. For the first time since the renewable revolution in 1882, Britain went a full day without using dirty coal to generate electricity.
The renewable revolution is gathering apace according to new research. Last year was an “extraordinary” record year for the sector, with “the largest global capacity additions seen to date.”
Rather than promote the solar revolution in the US, the fossil fuel industry "is doing all that it can to stop its growth."
