New exciting #PhD position in our group at TU Delft about energy system modelling and weather-dependent variability, with great flexibility in deciding the specific research direction autonomously (1/n)
A new paper in @OneEarth_CP provides wider context to our recent #SPORES paper (tinyurl.com/y5vyekcl). I thank a lot V.M. Nick and A.T.D. Perera for this very welcome discussion of our findings! -->
Planning highly renewable power systems involves compromise across diverse stakeholders. Is it possible to balance techno-economic feasibility with social and political goals?

Thread and new research on whether Europe would be better off building renewables locally everywhere, or only in the best locations and then providing more interconnection capacity. TLDR: could do it either way, costs not vastly different, think about resilience.
Continental or local? 100% renewable electricity supply in Europe can be both. But cost and especially required infrastructure differ.

🚨 JOB ALERT 🚨
I’m looking for a Research Associate to work with amazing colleagues from all over Europe building and testing the next generation of energy system models for the European Commission! Up to £47k in the amazing @IC_CEP at @imperialcollegeimperial.ac.uk/jobs/descript…
Phlippe Tulkens (EU Commission, DG RTD) at the Emp-E conference: "Black box models are no longer science. Science need to be accountable, verifiabe by scientific peers".
Good to heat that #OpenSource and #OpenData for energy models will be part the next Horizon programme
Hey @NewYorker, I fixed the headline for you:
"What if we stopped pretending that false prophecies of unavoidable doom are anything other than crypto-denialist narratives that favor an agenda of inaction?" (see: washingtonpost.com/opinions/…)

OK comparison of travel option emisisons, but misses the key point: flying accelerates emissions by its very high emission intensity/time. U could never do 4 intercontinental car trips a year.

Excellent @TheAtlantic article on the exposés we've been publishing about Bolsonaro's Minister of Justice, the corrupted investigation he led that resulted in Lula's removal from the election, and the fallout in Brazil from our reporting, by @Vinncent: theatlantic.com/internationa…
About 79 metric megatons of carbon dioxide were emitted by wildfires in the Arctic Circle in July 2019, smashing the previous record set in July 2004.
