You mention infrastructure. I am thinking offensive capabilities. Infrastructure is the first victim in a war. Supply chain is the motor of it. <br/><br/>TBH: I want a solarpunk future. I know we will always find ways for armed conflicts but I hope a renewable based economy will reduce capability and desire for it. 2026-03-06T06:57:20Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdsvnzugwkgjqut9pukalsum024nwt8neg85j769rfy8qy6qquddqzyp4av8ytph5umrux3sk7ug93zv84djkua63hglsscmxh206x08l8ju8yg5m In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspjy70gh3s2tz7m7gst5krz255964ccen8vwlc7w3g5tp3gctgf7qpue6k4'>nevent1q…e6k4</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>can’t operate a war machine on renewables. 2026-03-05T19:15:50Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszskpvde8a2ag7qa4wfc6q839xhzgvaphdexj76t6xuwzmtzfmp2czyp4av8ytph5umrux3sk7ug93zv84djkua63hglsscmxh206x08l8j3j2w4r In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqkc8q7u7ulxzh0jjyu6efwx5pm596c2rtyn55n73477xs7vge6vq7dl0kk'>nevent1q…l0kk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>do you have a source for that? I am following the BEV market for about 15 years now and that never came up. So I am genuinely interested. Being in Austria, Volkswagen was always an interesting case and most German reporting is around VW. <br/><br/>I tried to search for that but no luck so far. VW is loosing BEV market share etc. A lot of investment (eg. SAIC and Rivian joint venture) in the BEV market. Underperforming ICE in China. Nothing about selling BEV at a loss though. 2025-01-21T13:43:06Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrd29acd8nf8r299t9vuwt24h8er4t8y8rpy7zd6nx0xffc2rkqzqzyp4av8ytph5umrux3sk7ug93zv84djkua63hglsscmxh206x08l8j3zskqe In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszytp32kmzyu3g5vvwy7dhtgcvzkg7cu7q0flm08srzyvsze266sq4endhm'>nevent1q…ndhm</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>yeah, that’s a curious statement. Where is that from? <br/><br/>Volkswagen is expecting 18 billion operating profits, reduced from 26 billion because they did not sell enough vehicles. Their poor EV sales being an issue. Also, EU CO2 fleet limits are reduced in 2025 so many companies were expected to shift EV sales from 2024 to 2025 to compensate for ICE sales. <br/><br/><a href="https://www.volkswagen-group.com/en/ad-hoc/volkswagen-ag-updates-its-forecast-for-the-2024-financial-year-18698">https://www.volkswagen-group.com/en/ad-hoc/volkswagen-ag-updates-its-forecast-for-the-2024-financial-year-18698</a> 2025-01-21T09:21:29Z
