Great initiative, we need much more solar thermal supported district heating systems to get rid of fossil fuels. We can learn a lot from Austria 🇦🇹 and Denmark 🇩🇰 in this regard. #100%renewables @SolarHeat_EU
Field trip on „Solar district heating in cities” by Austrian climate fund and by association Austria Solar. Solar plant Mürzzuschlag, built by SOLID, is one of the biggest of this kind in Austria and was part of the field trip. #solarenergy
🟢 🏙️Today the 112 #MissionCities, the #EU Mission Cities team and our @NetZeroCitiesEU consortium are gathering in Brussels to meet and get to work together.
🔜 The journey to climate neutrality by 2030 has begun !
#EUMissions#HorizonEU
The extreme heat wave shows that massive action is needed in both fields: #climate mitigation AND adaptation. We need to use #solarenergy instead of suffering from the sun. #solarCities#agriphotovoltaic @giz_india
India is facing a prolonged heatwave, with temperatures exceeding 42°C in several cities across the country. This is what it looks like from space. This image, produced using data from @CopernicusEU#Sentinel3, shows the land surface temperature 👉esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Image…
Our first panel, titled "State of the Art and Future of RHC Sectors" is starting now!
Hear from representatives from 2 #RHC working groups (Buildings & Cities) and external expert
@miikarama#100RHC
Check out the speakers for the first panel in #100RHC!
In "State of the Art & Future of RHC sectors", moderator Jack Corscadden will be talking to representatives from 2 #RHC working groups (Buildings & Cities) and external expert @miikarama

How to change from fossil fuel driven to #100RHC Renewable Heating and Cooling is a key challenge for decarbonizing the energy sector. The annual RHC conference will give some answers.
A good reason to produce PV modules no only in China, but in all parts of the world. If we want to become climate neutral, the PV market must grow fast and production should be decentralized #ClimateEmergency
Record: 8 TWh of solar power in Germany in June 2021
German solar installations generated 8 TWh of electricity in June, accounting for 20.6% of net public electricity generation.
The last record of 7.3 TWh was set in June 2019.

German net public power generation in June 2021:
18.71 TWh renewable
20.01 TWh non-renewable
48.3% renewable share
Solar was the largest source of energy.

🔋☀️🌊 In 2020, #electricity generation from #renewables for the first time overtook fossil fuels.
Electricity generation from #fossilfuels was at 1 022 589 GWh (9.8% decrease compared with 2019), while that from renewables increased to 1 052 582 GWh.

As engines of the economy & migration magnets, cities account for 65% of global #energy use. Urban-level energy planning is therefore critical to the success of the #energytransition.

#PVPflicht in den Ländern - Dank an alle Referent:innen für Beiträge zur solaren Zukunft bei @energietage: Für Klimaneutralität 2045 sind 10 und später bis zu 15 GW PV-Zubau im Jahr nötig. #Solarpflicht ist dafür neben EEG & Energieberatung ein wichtiger Baustein. #Energiewende
Cities are key in the transition to #climate neutrality. The report of @REN21 is a great work, showing already ongoing activities. Congratulations to the authors
The Renewables in Cities 2021 Global Status Report is live! 🏙️
From net-zero targets to #fossilfuel bans, #cities are trailblazers in the #energytransition 🏙️
The report, summary & city case studies are available now 🔗 bit.ly/3eROJ2O#REN21cities
Es ist nicht schwer zu verstehen: Wind- & Solarenergie werden gebraucht, um Kernenergie & Kohle abzulösen. Kein Ausstieg ohne Einstieg (@Merkel). Warum gibt es dann den #Solardeckel noch @peteraltmaier@cducsubt? Der muss dringend weg, sonst funktioniert die #Energiewende nicht.
Die Solarbranche hat heute 30.000 Beschäftigte im deutschen Mittelstand & Handwerk. Der #Solardeckel gefährdet somit tausende #Arbeitsplätze und das Geschäftsmodell zahlreicher mittelständischer Unternehmen als Rückgrat der deutschen Wirtschaft.@peteraltmaier@cducsubt
Tbh we are a bit overwhelmed to be recognized by the @Handelsblatt for the work we have put in making modular and standardized #electrolysers 🥳🍾 What a #hydrogen journey! @Enapter_
