That's how it's done

Calif grid powered by a net of 99.2-101.3% renewables & 98.1-99.3% #WindWaterSolar 11:25 AM-12:55 PM, Sun, April 16.

12:50 PM
72.75% solar
8.56% wind
5.46% geotherm
1.71% small hydro
10.78% large hydro

Run-of-the-river hydro in irrigation canals. Great idea!

Should cover them with solar as well.

Mini hydro company @emrgyinc raises $18M to generate power in canals https://www.wyomingnews.com/news/from_the_wire/mini-hydro-company-raises-18m-to-generate-power-in-canals/article_3d723d47-17a3-5c85-b95f-a622422fd69c.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=user-share #WWS #WindWaterSolar #NoMiraclesNeeded @usbr

And this is what we find theoretically as well:

#WindWaterSolar + storage reduces energy and social costs tremendously versus gas, coal, & oil

UKはもうEUメンバーじゃないからこの改正は適用されないんだよね･･･😭

Switching the world to 100% #RenewableEnergy will cost $62 trillion, but the payback would take just 6 years, outlines Professor @mzjacobson

Brazil installs almost 2.5 GW of #WindWaterSolar electricity capacity during first quarter of 2023. This represents 89.9% of added capacity

1,485 MW wind
63.2 MW water
920.2 MW solar
2,468.4 MW #WWS out of 2,746.5 MW total = 89.9% WWS

If this cost pans out, little barrier remains for the world to go to 100% #WindWaterSolar by 2035

Iron-air batteries ($20/kWh), about 1/5th-1/10th cost of lithium-ion batteries ($100-$200/kWh) for grid elec storage, set for commercial production in 2024.
