"The government’s huge subsidization of this project lays bare a reality unfolding across the world economy: Fossil fuels aren’t just losing to clean energy. They’ve lost. In fact, the difference is now a trillion-dollar one," writes Clean Energy Canada's Rachel Doran. #cdnpoli

🔌 “If you can snap up a cheap golf course, which is nice and flat, gentle slopes, not mountainous, it’s probably cheap land. So it makes a lot of sense," Kyushu University professor Andrew Chapman told Bloomberg.

Former golf courses currently host about 9% of Japan’s utility-scale #solar capacity.

🔌✅ Today's EVs—even the lower-range ones—are ready for road trips. On a 365-kilometre route, all 22 models tested never had to stop for a top-up charge. Plus, when an EV does need recharging, one can plug in and head to the bathroom or store—no minutes wasted "just holding a nozzle."
