on 02026-04-08#video #documentary on #NIMBY in #Andalusia, #Spain, fighting #solar #energy because the #PV parks are proliferating, and the Spanish state are expropriating the lands of farmers to reach their goals, which is "in their backyard" in a far more literal sense than the usual one. “Renovables sí, pero no así”. Etc. I didn’t finish it.

But it’s not Google’s secure Titan M2 chip that has criminals favoring the Pixel — instead, it’s #GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused alternative to the default Pixel OS.” #privacy #human-rights #security

on 02025-06-17overview of electrical #energy generation in #Spain in 02024: 248478 GWh total generated, of which 59512 #wind (3% less than 02023), 52391 nuclear (4% less than 02023), 43609 #solar #photovoltaic (19% more than 02023), 34909 hydroelectric (36% more than 02023), 29107 combined-cycle [gas] (27% less than 02023), and 2972 coal. That’s 18% photovoltaic and 23% wind out of 28 gigawatts. There’s a handy CSV to download.
on 02025-06-17maybe overvoltages from #solar and #wind #energy were the cause of the #Iberian-blackout? More because it’s distributed than because it’s not spinning? Because generation operators don’t get paid for reactive power? This is confusing. Solar and wind supplied 33% of #Spain’s electrical generation in 02024 and 37% of #Portugal’s.
