It can't be said often enough, so I'll say it again:
Solar and batteries can power the world! It's cheaper than gas (esp. at today's prices) and a lot more reliable.
By 2030, solar and batteries could supply 90% of electricity to 80% of the world's population for < €80/MWh (including backup).

In this time of turbulence, let's not forget the good news on solar and batteries - now cheap enough that most people can get most of their electricity from them, and save money.
Had a great time with Chris Nelder 🤘 (npub1mzd…58f4) on his Energy Transition Show (npub1ass…xqkk) podcast discussing what this new world looks like, based on a recent blog post:
