A decade ago, analysts were calling Spain a cautionary tale. Too much solar, too fast!
Today, Spain is rapidly on its way to having the cheapest power in Europe.

How wind and solar quietly pushed gas off the margin, and the wholesale price followed.
Is The Philippines about to be the next Pakistan of solar?
There was 10GW of panels exported from China to The Philippines in the last 12 months...
10GW would generate 11% of total national consumption.. and quadruple the country's 2025 solar output🤯
So how real is this? 🧵
What will the global fossil fuel market look like once the closure of the Hormuz ends? In short, volatile and risky but oversupplied - terrible for fossil fuel investors, less so for clean energy investors. The UAE's decision to leave OPEC reinforced this.

Chart of the day. The energy transition is happening in real time! 😍
Very little would convince me to support Starmer remaining in power in the UK.
But 5600 words from Tony Blair criticising the Government (and calling to dig more oil from the North Sea 🤡) might just about do it 😂
