The Netherlands and Greece were the top solar record setters, while wind power also hit new highs in May and June.

US disinformation pigfuckers claimed it was due to intermittent power. No such conclusions were ever made, and there is no physical/tech challenge/impossibility to not have a stable grid with intermittent power.
the reason stated in the report was that base load failed to correct. it was a novel failure case, but very much related to a grid with intermittent power tacked on.
of course there is no technical reason it wouldn’t work, but we are in the real world, where technical solutions are not implemented in a vacuum. the grid is yet to be completely retooled for intermittent wave-following sources, and accidents like this are how we figure out what not to do.
also “us disinformation pigfuckers”? really? the us has a vendetta against spain now?
US administration does have a vendetta against renewables, and failure to buy US energy at extortion prices.
…how would spain even by us energy?
lng and crude oil, like rest of world is supposed to. Instead of setting “a bad example”
…but europe has never been a us gas or oil importer. that’s just not a market.
Europe has regularly imported oil from US even as it gets most of it from US/Israel middle east allies that easily replaced Russian supplies. Upon submitting to the US’s proxy war on Russia through Ukraine, NG prices in EU spiked and it got 50% of its supplies in 2022 from US LNG. The US’s determination for climate destruction requires pigfuckers telling EU that renewables don’t work, and it should depend on US energy supplies instead.
spain uses fossil fuels from lebanon. you’re talking about germany.
i’m sorry but the way you phrase yourself makes me uncomfortable. i don’t want to continue this.
The reason for liars to lie about Spain is to bully/disinform rest of Europe and US public into going harder on FFs.
