The UK announced its target of 95% clean power by 2030, but how does this compared against renewable power targets in Wales? I estimate that if Wales is to remain a net exporter of electricity to England, we need to set target of 180% renewable ⚡ by 2030.

❄️ Europe must resist backsliding on coal cuts this winter. 🔌💡In the long run, a flexible 100% renewable energy system will be more reliable than fossil. Read a new text by @_ThomasLewis 👉 caneurope.org/europe-must-re…… #coal #fossil #energy

@Europarl_EN Hey @WBHoekstra, many #climateplans #EUNECP are still propping up fossil fuel subsidies, breaching EU law. NGOs have filed complaints—will you push for the action needed to fix this? #FairerClimatePlans

BREAKING: the #nuclear referendum in #Slovenia planned for November is officially cancelled by Parliament. Reasons include malversations during the organisation, but also increasing opposition against manipulated information provision. Earlier coverage: sloveniatimes.com/41185/nuclear-…

@AdrianHiel Actual RES targets for 2040. Most of the responses avoid the question. We cannot just rely on electrification and grids to do it all. And not a “low-carbon” target.

My job says I should look at the answers to the committee questions, but my heart says to look at the conflict of interest declarations and see who has a nice summer house on the coast

🇧🇪🦁BREAKING: Police has started an investigation into possible voter fraud in the municipality of Ninove. Ninove is important as it could be the first ever town with a far-right VB local govt if they win an absolute majority. No coalition as parties across Flanders rule out VB.

It’s time for local elections in Belgium! 🇧🇪 My partner and I arrived to Brussels together, just under 5 years ago. She gets to vote as an EU citizen, however I have no say in how my commune is run. A deeply undemocratic law, affecting many communities more marginalised than I.
