This was #predicted , of course the #eu is not out of the woods with the #energy #crisis https://www.zerohedge.com/weather/europe..
I have been #warning people for a long time now that the #energy #crisis would #trigger a #food #crisis https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/ho.. They have #limited #expensive #energy , #reduced #fertilizer and tonnes of #failed #harvests . Almighty #food #shortages are coming not just to the #eu but elsewhere too.
Well, this could be a growing problem... #nuclear #reactors around the #world are getting quite old, with the #us #reactors having an average age of 41.6 years: https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/us-nucl.. During an #energy #crisis and #economic #recession , one could see there being an attempt to keep the #nuclear #reactors going far beyond their #safe #limit .
Yeah, I suspect #blackouts in the #us will not bode well for #biden 's #election in 2024: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/power-.. Pretty insane to see the #us go through such a thing, given that only a few years ago they were all about #energy #stability .
The #uk is leadering in something! In this case, it is #energy #prices ... https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/uk-citi.. 34p per #killowatthour - fucking hell! You can burn through this kind of #energy incredibly easily. We need #nuclearpower *now* - #defund #greenenergy and #fund #sustainable #energy sources for the next 50 years.
#china 's #natural #gar #consumption is set to fall for the first time in 20 years: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/chinas.. Why is this significant? It means that #china 's #ccp are also having an #energy #crisis , they just aren't telling anybody. This is even with them #buying #russia 's #gas ...
About to get #cold in the #uk , just in time for the #energy #crisis over #winter . Great.
Very cool that you can potentially #grow #plants from the #lighting from a single #watt of #power https://hackaday.com/2022/10/31/a-single.. Potentially mass scale #hydroponics could be really quite #energy #efficient .
#wind #energy on a #roof is looking better than #solar , and #cheaper https://www.pv-magazine.com/2022/10/17/r.. This #company may not be #legit though given the actions of their #ceo . That said, I believe that #wind #turbines are the single #easiest and #cheapest way a single person could #generate #electric almost anywhere in the world.
Interesting, it seems like the #eu may be starting to #win the #energy #war with #russia https://youtube.com/watch?v=uGjBtNu2rZs As a result, it appears as though #russia have begun #sabotaging #infrastructure in #europe to #reduce their #capacity . As the #uk already stated, any #state #caught doing so will be considered an #actofwar , which would create a while new #crisis .

You may ask "how is that good", but it means we bare this #problem #together - rather than peaking over the #channel at another #country living it up well.Yeah... An #estimated 26 #million #british people will apparently be in #fuel #poverty by the #winter of 2023/2024: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fran.. This is why I have put several #plans in motion to prevent this happening to me. It will still be close, though.
Pretty interesting #idea for the #uk #energy #grid to #offer #money for not using #appliances https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/uk.. I wonder how well this will work out, and how this will all be #funded ...
#liztruss 's #policy on #subsidizing #uk #energy is not one I agree with: https://youtube.com/watch?v=tlH5tgT1ilc It doesn't #incentivize people to #reduce the #usage of a #scarce and #expensive #resource . Maybe #gordanbrown 's #idea of a #partial #temporary #nationalisation could work, or creating a #rival #energy #company to #drive #prices down. #labour 's #idea is #dumb .
Looks like the #us may not #escape the #energy #crisis coming this #winter https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/your-n.. There is definitely #exponential growth there...
As I said previously, #energy #shortages are now *extremely* likely over this #winter https://news.sky.com/story/energy-crisis.. If only somebody could have seen it coming...
Apparently the #eu is now taking #energy #security much more seriously after spotting #drones near other #energy #infrastructure at #sea https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/f..
