OMNIHASH: takže 3% dvou temelínských bloků každý měsíc. Not too shaby :o) Když si vezmeme, že Česko chce jeden dukovanský blok stavět (včetně výběrka, povolovaček a samotné stavby) 16 let (a je to optimistický předpoklad), tak FV fakt vedou

DNF: 447MW solárů vygeneruje +-500GWh ročně

SHEFIK: samozřejmě, že čím míň ptáků větráky zabijou tím líp, o tom žádná, ale nejsou jich takový kvanta jako u jiných zabijáků

KEB: tak zalezi jestli je to mestskej holub, nebo nakej chranenej ptak. mlejnek na ptaky nechce nikdo :) a prijde mi vcelku rozumny to resit. me zas prekvapilo, ze kocky jich zabijou vic. melo by se neco delat i s kockama...

SHEFIK: Nevím, jak tuhle informaci přepočítat třeba v poměru k produkci JE Temelín?
Temelín údajně vyprodukoval v r. 2019 15,763 TWh.
Ale možná bude vhodnější to srovnat s nějakou uhelnou elektrárnou?

Cambridge researchers develop standalone device that makes formic acid from sunlight, CO2 and water
Cambridge researchers develop standalone device that makes formic acid from sunlight, CO2 and water - Green Car Congress
https://www.greencarcongress.com/2020/08/20200824-wang.html

Researchers at the University of Cambridge, with colleagues at the University of Tokyo, have developed a standalone device that converts sunlight, carbon dioxide and water into formic acid, a carbon-neutral fuel, without requiring any additional components or electricity.

The device is a significant step toward achieving artificial photosynthesis—a process mimicking the ability of plants to convert sunlight into energy. The device is based on an advanced ‘photosheet’ technology and converts sunlight, carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and formic acid—a storable fuel that can be either be used directly or be converted into hydrogen.

Bird Fatalities Can Be Reduced By Painting Wind Turbine Blades
https://cleantechnica.com/...0/08/31/bird-fatalities-can-be-reduced-by-painting-wind-turbine-blades/

Wind power continues to be a viable source of renewable clean electricity production. Eventually, it could meet 35% of global power needs. 

...

A relatively tiny portion of annual bird deaths are caused by wind power farms. (Cats kill far, far more each year, for example.) 

...
How many wind turbines in your study had one blade painted black?

Four turbines were painted; the experiment also included four neighboring control turbines.

A 70% reduction in bird fatalities is a very significant decrease. Do you think it could be replicated at other wind power sites?

Yes, it clearly can and should be replicated elsewhere to see to which extent the findings might be species- and site-specific. There is interest to do so in South Africa and in the Netherlands.

Norwegians to Develop Next-Gen Turbine Installation Vessel | Offshore Wind
https://www.offshorewind.biz/2020/08/31/norwegians-to-develop-next-gen-turbine-installation-vessel/

The vessel will be able to install giant offshore wind turbines weighing more than 1,000 tones at a height of over 150 meters above sea level, the parties said.


“We will jointly be developing one of the world’s most advanced vessels for installation of future offshore wind turbines, which are too large for the existing turbine installation fleet,” said Erik Haakonsholm, General Manager of Vard Group Offshore & Specialized Vessels.

...


We currently have high expertise and solid revenues from oil and gas, and these resources are now dedicated to establish us as a leading player within the offshore wind space,” said Strømsnes

Planetary Emergency Plan 2.0 - Club of Rome
https://clubofrome.org/impact-hubs/climate-emergency/planetary-emergency-plan-2-0/

The Planetary Emergency Plan 2.0, updated to include insights from the covid-19 global pandemic, makes the case that we are unequivocally in the midst of a planetary emergency. The plan provides ten commitments to protect the global commons and public goods as well with ten essential transformative actions to drive systems change and stabilize the earth.

Earth Overshoot Day marks the date when humanity’s demand for ecological resources and services in a given year exceeds what Earth can regenerate in that year. COVID-19 has caused humanity's Ecological Footprint to contract, pushing the date of Earth Overshoot Day back more than three weeks compared to last year. The challenge of relaunching our economies presents countries with a unique chance to act on the future we want. On 20 August 2020 at 9:00 am CEST, the audience may join The Club of Rome and Global Footprint Network for an engaging online session streamed live on YouTube.

This public event will combine live engagement with video messages from ‘green champions’ throughout Europe and will bring to life what it means in practice to 'build back better' post-COVID. Mathis Wackernagel (President of the Global Footprint Network) will kick off the Earth Overshoot Day campaign in Europe ahead of the global Earth Overshoot Day, which falls on Saturday 22 August this year.

On this occasion, The Club of Rome and Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) will present an updated Planetary Emergency Plan, making the case that the pandemic has highlighted our fragility and the profound links between disease, nature, climate and emissions, equity and justice, the finance sector and food systems. The report can be found here:

http://clubofrome.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/COR-PEP_Aug2020_A4_16pp-digital-1.pdf

The audience will have the opportunity to ask questions to our panelists throughout the event via the live chat box. For any remaining questions, there is time allocated for a short Q&A at the end of the programme.

Coal company v Cine drivuje transition...

EGEB: This Chinese coal company is going big on solar - Electrek
https://electrek.co/2020/08/24/egeb-china-coal-solar-vietnam-denmark-efficient-energy/amp/

The Chinese state-owned company Shanxi Coal International Energy Group is making a big investment in solar manufacturing. Shanxi will lead a joint venture to build a 3-gigawatt solar manufacturing plant for 3.19 billion yuan ($461 million). The project will grow to 10 gigawatts.
Shanxi Coal will own an 88.5% stake in the venture, Shanxi Coal International Photovoltaic Power

Technology. It says it’s made this move into solar to “help with the province’s energy transition and meet the need for state firms to get behind strategic emerging industries,” according to Bloomberg Green.
Ironically, China leads the world in the production of both coal and solar — it’s the largest producer and buyer of solar panels. But it refuses to give up coal because of energy demand and employment. China’s industrial sector is by far the largest consumer of coal.
