#Argentina #news #video from #La-Nacion about the Línea Mitre trains today not reaching Retiro because of #blackouts. Supposedly as of 8:05 AM, Edesur says 6290 households are in the blackout, which seems absurdly low for a blackout that’s interrupting train service, and 2.671 million who aren’t. Edenor has 1137 household in blackouts and 3.309 million who aren’t. Four high-tension lines apparently out of service? Footage of people trapped in a dark subte yesterday fanning themselves with hand fans.
on 02025-03-06#La-Nacion #news #video about a MoU being signed for a US$140 billion export deal for #LNG from Vaca Muerta in partnership with Shell which is apparently displacing Petronas as a candidate partner. Probably kind of stupid given what’s happening with solar, but gas certainly has a role to play in peakers before battery capacity is built up. They say it's “gas no tradicional” which I think means they’re cooking shale. They’re saying maybe they’d have an export terminal in place by 02027 or 02030, which seems far too late; the floating LNG terminal that we had when Macri was president might work. Pure talking-head filler. #Argentina #energy #politics
