Is power generation becoming a regulated business? 🤔 Strong emphasis in the Draghi report on ways to stabilize prices (CfDs, PPAs). Public authorities will have final say in setting final prices and thus investment framework Strong dialogue with stakeholders will be key 🤝
What does the Draghi's report says about Energy ?🧵 ↪️commission.europa.eu/topics/… "We need a plan aiming at decoupling the price of fossil fuels energy from clean energy sources" just said Mr Draghi One of his main proposals : A joint decarbonisation and competitiveness plan 1/11

🇺🇦🇷🇺 "Ma com'è che la Russia non è ancora fallita malgrado le sanzioni occidentali?". Be', parliamone. Invadendo l'Ucraina, la Russia si è autosabotata. Ha compromesso il suo futuro, per finanziare una guerra inutile e sanguinaria. Un thread.🧵

I have been struggling to articulate the complex emotions I've been feeling since Saturday morning as a Jew, a liberal/progressive, a believer that Palestinians and Jews have a right to a homeland, to safety and dignity. A thread 1/

Historically, much of the gender gap in earnings could be explained by differences in education and occupational choices. However, this year’s economic sciences laureate Claudia Goldin has shown that the bulk of this earnings difference is now between men and women in the same occupation, and that it largely arises with the birth of the first child. #NobelPrize

not that you should take it literally, but...
Grids, grids and again grids… ⚡️ “You want #renewables? You need the grid… You want solar ☀️? You need the grid…. You want electric cars ⚡️ 🚙 ? You need the grid…” You want heat pumps? You need the grid…” Grids is one of biggest blind spot of the global #energy sector‼️

European affairs 🤯. At the precise same time: - Zelensky speaking at NATO summit in Vilnius - "Green Deal" nature restoration law survives nail-biting vote to derail it - EU imposes 432m euro fine for Illumina/Grail, which merged without approval. Summer break, anyone?

The EU internal energy market is the only effective theatre where the EU’s ambitious decarbonisation strategy happens However, the changes to the Commission’s electricity market reform proposal ultimately risk eroding it to the point where it will no longer function as it should.
