France unveiled results of the 1st commercial floating #offshore wind auction

At €86/MWh given today's inflation & cost of capital, this is a great result!

When the supply chains for floating scale, we can expect a globally important new source to help hit #TriplingRE by 2030

☀️If #GlobalWarming continues to 3ºC, global GDP will decrease by up to 10% - with worst impacts in less developed countries, highlights a new study by Jarmo Kikstra, scientists from ETH Zurich and Univ. of Delaware. Limiting it to 1.5ºC could reduce global costs of climate change by 2/3

If global temperatures rise 3C on average, the world's GDP will take a 10% hit, researchers say trib.al/42JpRnx

Eine Begrenzung der globalen Erwärmung auf 1,5 Grad Celsius könnte die weltweiten wirtschaftlichen Kosten des Klimawandels um zwei Drittel reduzieren.
