Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Incumbent German electricity suppliers said in 1993 that renewables could not provide more than 4% of electricity in the long run.
In 2025, renewables provided 55.9% of Germany's electricity — 14 times the predicted ceiling.

Energy transitions can happen faster than we think:
In 2000 almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels.
In 2024 less than 10% of Danish electricity was from fossil fuels.

With 57% of its electricity now coming from renewables, including 22% from solar & 21% from wind, Spain built one of Europe's most impressive electricity systems. Solar is now the country's fastest-growing source of power & has helped drive some of the lowest wholesale electricity prices in Europe.

New batteries to store solar electricity and low demand in May both contributed to high percentage of electricity that came from solar.

Europe's electricity system is changing rapidly and often in places that don't make the headlines.
Look at Estonia - not that long ago and fossil fuels dominated around 90% of electricity generation.
Today solar and wind eat more and more into the share of fossil fuel-generated electricity.

It’s pretty simple:
- AI is driving electricity demand up
- The Trump Administration is restricting new electricity supply from being built
- When demand goes up and supply goes down, you pay more for electricity.

Breaking News: The Trump administration ordered construction to stop on a $4 billion wind farm off the coast of Rhode Island that has already mostly been built.
Trump Administration Orders Work Halted on Wind Farm That Is Nearly Built
The order to stop construction on Revolution Wind off the coast of Rhode Island is part of a campaign against renewable energy.
