Very pleasing afternoon in Chester yesterday as @Brettonsolar received unanimous planning committee support for the English side of the project.
That's a huge step forward.
Now we wait for @WelshGovernment approval for the Wales side.

Another important weapon against climate change are renewables. Overbuild them!
Great article again from Michael Barnard. Yes I admit: I am a fan of him.

“EDF now says Hinkley C, UK’s first new nuclear power station for 30 years, will cost £32.7bn, against the £18bn envisaged in 2016. EDF’s Flamanville-3 reactor in France is over a decade behind schedule. In the US, the $14bn original cost of Vogtle 3 and 4 has blown past $30bn.”
The nuclear industry needs to show it can deliver on.ft.com/3qBBnjv

Right now #wind is meeting 40% of the National Grid's electricity demand. winderful.uk
ALT The winderful.uk dashboard showing that wind is generating 9,814 MW. That's enough to run 9,346,667 washing machines.

This doesn’t surprise me.
With some vehicles fitted with exhausts deliberately designed to produce excessive noise this has been a long time coming. rac.co.uk/drive/news/motorin…

This could mean UK misses out on up to 7GW of new, cheap offshore wind capacity
...which doesn't help us meet 50GW target for 2030
...or displace expensive gas for electricity generation to lower bills
...or send strong signals to competitive market

This is what your phone will look like in 2027! Surprised? We aren't! cause this is what designing for longevity looks like. With a loooong software support 8 swappable parts that can be replaced 🪛 when broken, your #Fairphone4 will keep running for many more years.

UK wages rise at fastest rate since records began bbc.in/47KsJAb
Community note
Headline is misleading. The article itself states that: “Regular pay grew by 7.8%. Inflation, which measures the pace at which prices are rising remains relatively high at 7.9%.”
Described in “real terms” (that means taking inflation into account), this is a pay cut

NEW
Inflation rate was 6.8% in July in main COI measure, down again due to falls in household energy prices,
… but core inflation remained at 6.9% and services inflation rose by 7.4% (up on last month)

Doing a feature surrounding used EV prices. A two-year-old Seat Mii Electric can now be had for £10k. What a terrific used buy! Quite a bit cheaper than a petrol Up! of the same age as well...

Interesting video by @efixx247 documenting the recent changes by @OctopusEnergy to accept non MCS solar PV installs onto smart export tariff, personally I think this is a good thing, I wonder if it's a sign of things to come for heat pumps? 🧐 youtube.com/watch?v=FSZhGxES…
