Orsted shelves Gigastack UK hydrogen project at world’s largest wind farm

Orsted (CPH: ORSTED) and Phillips 66 have put their Gigastack green hydrogen project at Hornsea 2, the world’s largest wind farm, on pause. The pair said they’ve made a joint decision to withdraw funding from the UK Government Hydrogen Business Model (HMB) process, which is aimed at getting Britain’s first gigawatt of low-carbon hydrogen projects in construction or operating by 2025. Gigastack,…

Upright Peacock Jazz

Gary Peacock was a very busy session player for decades with the likes of Keith Jarret. On a lp to cd transfer I have his December Poems (1979) a mostly solo bass with Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek added on two selections. His upright bass sound is sweet, his arrangements aren’t challenging & the music is sublime and not overly ‘romantic’ or emotional. I love solo upright bass. With this I…

You Can Call Me Al

Why do the #British call it #aluminium and the Americans #aluminum? The story of the discovery of the third most abundant element on the earth's crust #Science #metals

Aluminium, despite being the third most abundant element on the earth’s crust after oxygen and silicon, and the second most used metal after iron, is, curiously, one of the more recently discovered metals. Chemically bound to other ores, particularly bauxite, it is not found in its purest form naturally. However, alums, hydrated salts containing aluminium and sulphur, have been used for almost…

Ørsted commits to reuse or recycle all solar panels

Ørsted is the world’s first energy developer to commit to reuse or recycle all solar panels from its global portfolio of solar farms with immediate effect. Solar energy is a key technology for the green energy transition and for limiting global warming. The deployment of this technology requires vast amounts of virgin materials. The mining of these has environmental and social impacts, and…

Ørsted og Skovgaard Energy går sammen om at udvikle Power-to-X-anlæg i stor skala

Ørsted og Skovgaard Energy går sammen om at udvikle Power-to-X-anlæg i stor skala

Ørsted og Skovgaard Energy har underskrevet en hensigtserklæring om at udvikle et af Danmarks mest attraktivt placerede Power-to-X-anlæg. Anlægget skal bygges i flere faser, og det kan dermed både spille en central rolle i opstarten af den danske Power-to-X-industri samt i etableringen af eksport af store mængder vedvarende brint til den grønne omstilling af Europa. Projektets første fase får en…

Hans Christian Ørstedwas born on August 14, 1777. A Danish physicist and chemist who discovered that electric currents create magnetic fields, which was the first connection found between electricity and magnetism. Oersted’s law and the oersted unit (Oe) are named after him. A leader of the Danish Golden Age, Ørsted was a close friend of Hans Christian Andersen and the brother of politician and jurist Anders Sandøe Ørsted, who served as Prime Minister of Denmark from 1853 to 1854. In 1820, Ørsted published his discovery that a compass needle was deflected from magnetic north by a nearby electric current, confirming a direct relationship between electricity and magnetism.

"The amount of electricity generated by the UK’s gas and coal power plants fell by 20% last year, with consumption of fossil fuels at its lowest level since 1957.

Not since Harold Macmillan was the UK prime minister and the Beatles’ John Lennon and Paul McCartney met for the first time has the UK used less coal and gas.

The UK’s gas power plants last year generated 31% of the UK’s electricity, or 98 terawatt hours (TWh), according to a report by the industry journal Carbon Brief, while the UK’s last remaining coal plant produced enough electricity to meet just 1% of the UK’s power demand or 4TWh.

Fossil fuels were squeezed out of the electricity system by a surge in renewable energy generation combined with higher electricity imports from France and Norway and a long-term trend of falling demand.

Higher power imports last year were driven by an increase in nuclear power from France and hydropower from Norway in 2023. This marked a reversal from 2022 when a string of nuclear outages in France helped make the UK a net exporter of electricity for the first time.

Carbon Brief found that gas and coal power plants made up just over a third of the UK’s electricity supplies in 2023, while renewable energy provided the single largest source of power to the grid at a record 42%.

It was the third year this decade that renewable energy sources, including wind, solar, hydro and biomass power, outperformed fossil fuels [in the UK], according to the analysis. Renewables and Britain’s nuclear reactors, which generated 13% of electricity supplies last year, helped low-carbon electricity make up 55% of the UK’s electricity in 2023.

[Note: "Third year this decade" refers to the UK specifically, not global; there are several countries that already run on 100% renewable energy, and more above 90% renewable. Also, though, there have only been four years this decade so far! So three out of four is pretty good!]

Dan McGrail, the chief executive of RenewableUK, said the data shows “the central role that wind, solar and other clean power sources are consistently playing in Britain’s energy transition”.

“We’re working closely with the government to accelerate the pace at which we build new projects and new supply chains in the face of intense global competition, as everyone is trying to replicate our success,” McGrail said.

Electricity from fossil fuels was two-thirds lower in 2023 compared with its peak in 2008, according to Carbon Brief. It found that coal has dropped by 97% and gas by 43% in the last 15 years.

Coal power is expected to fall further in 2024 after the planned shutdown of Britain’s last remaining coal plant in September. The Ratcliffe on Soar coal plant, owned by the German utility Uniper, is scheduled to shut before next winter after generating power for over 55 years.

Renewable energy has increased sixfold since 2008 as the UK has constructed more wind and solar farms, and the large Drax coal plant has converted some of its generating units to burn biomass pellets.

Electricity demand has tumbled by 22% since its peak in 2005, according to the data, as part of a long-term trend driven by more energy efficient homes and appliances as well as a decline in the UK’s manufacturing sector.

Demand for electricity is expected to double as the UK aims to cut emissions to net zero by 2050 because the plan relies heavily on replacing fossil fuel transport and heating with electric alternatives.

In recent weeks [aka at the end of 2023], offshore wind developers have given the green light to another four large windfarms in UK waters, including the world’s largest offshore windfarm at Hornsea 3, which will be built off the North Yorkshire coast by Denmark’s Ørsted."
