The Uptime Wind Energy Podcast brought to you by StrikeTape, protecting thousands of wind turbines from lightning damage worldwide. Visit strike tape.com. And now your hosts.  Allen Hall: Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I’m your host Alan Hall, and I’m here with Rosemary Barnes, Yolanda Padron. Matthew Stead down in Australia. So welcome Matthew.  Matthew Stead: Great to be here. Thank you, Alan.  Allen Hall: We have a number of articles and interesting topics this week. Top of the list is Vestus. Vestus announced their Q4 numbers, and although the the revenue is great, uh, they, they had a profit of about 580 million euros. It was below what analysts expected, so the shares dropped about 6% on the news. But the CEO of Vestus is saying, uh, full speed ahead. They’re, they’re willing to make some concessions. Vestus, as it sounds like, in terms [00:01:00] of thinning out the company a little bit, which I, that’s been a, a, a complaint from investors for a little while. But in, in terms of, uh, going forward in renewable energy, Vestus is still going to pursue that. The offshore wind business looks like it’s gonna be profitable in 2027. And as we all know, and we, we see wind turbine prices, uh, quite a bit in each of our positions. Vestas is the most expensive one on the block, but they’re still winning a whole bunch of orders. And, and Matthew, uh, Vestas globally. I would say is the leader right now, if you look at Siemens GAA and GE Vestas is really winning a lot of the orders. Matthew Stead: Yeah, I think a very strong reputation for quality. Um, I have to say, I’ve got some Vestas turbines behind me, so, um, all paid for by myself. They’ve always been well regarded for their, um, you know, quality of [00:02:00] product. And when I first got into wind, um, you know, probably 15 years ago, you know, they were, they were the leaders at that point in time. And so, you know, quality. Reduces future o and m cost. I think  Rosemary Barnes: it’s not just about like the simple o and m, either it’s the risk that something really bad goes wrong and you’re just stuck with, you know, like a, a whole a hundred turbines that can’t be fixed or, you know, at least a large, a large chunk of them. The more that I work in, in o and m, the more you see, like on occasion when you do have those serial issues that mean, you know, like. Sometimes all the blades in the wind farm have to be replaced or sometimes all the generators or you know, even if it’s not replaced, if you’ve gotta take them all out and do something and put ’em back in, it is just such a massive cost. And, um, reducing the chance that that’s gonna happen is actually really valuable for insurance. And yeah, all sorts of other financial reasons.  Yolanda Padron: And even as an FSA customer, I feel like Vestus has a lot more transparency as to what actually is going on, [00:03:00] on site and more able to, to collaborate on, on like a site to site basis, which is very obviously helping them in getting a lot of return customers. Allen Hall: Yeah. One of the key revenues for Vestus has been the FSA, where almost every project I’ve seen over the last couple of years has had a 2030 year FSA attached to it. Rarely do you see. Order without that, and that’s a long-term revenue stream. The, the thing about Vestus and the complaints that are happening, uh, around vestus are odd because if you look at Siemens Cab Mesa, they’re really struggling to be profitable. And then GE Renova, which is really, really struggling to be profitable and they’re losing several hundred millions of dollars a year. Vestas is bringing in a profit, and, and yet the investors are wanting even more. I, I guess, is, is this just a relationship to the. Where you can invest money today. The stock market going up so high, gold and silver prices are at record highs. Rosemary Barnes: Haven’t they just [00:04:00] crushed?  Allen Hall: They have a little bit. They’ve, they’ve rescinded some, but they’re still at really high numbers, right? So Gold Cross, what? $5,000 and ounce and then, uh, it was it 2000 a year ago? So the, the rise in the value of, of, uh, rear metals is crazy. Is there a plan you think Vestas is changing the way they’re gonna operate? ’cause uh, they’re talking about thinning out the ranks and they do seem to be becoming more vertically integrated with the acquisition of the TPI factories down in Mexico. GPI in India  Rosemary Barnes: before we make it sound too much like a paid segment from investors, I have to say I disagree that they’re like just crushing it with the, the FSAs. I think that the full service agreements are across the board. Perform badly in Australia, at least I think it’s different elsewhere. Um, maybe it’s a good segue into, uh, talk about our event that we’ve got coming up to talk [00:05:00] about, um, the difficult operating conditions in Australia. But I, I think that best as, like everybody else has been surprised at how many things can go wrong in an Australia and wind farm. And, um, I don’t, I I would’ve put them up on a pedestal for. Particularly noteworthy, um, brilliant service with the FSAs. I think, yeah, across the board everyone’s doing a little bit less than they should be, and I have no doubt that they’re also making a whole lot less money on those agreements than what they spent or spending a lot more than what they’re expecting. So I don’t wanna be too harsh in my judgment.  Yolanda Padron: That’s fair. The bar is very low.  Rosemary Barnes: But what I do notice when I go to international events, um, and I, you know, I talk to, I’ve got a lot of ex-colleagues that’s still working in the industry and vest. Stands out as still investing a lot in r and d. And that doesn’t mean like crushing out a new platform every single year or every two years. It’s not that. But they are investing in a lot of new technologies that are more incremental. They’re [00:06:00] looking at bigger technology leaps and um, you know, still investigating stuff like that. Like I think if I was to go back working for an OEM, that’s the kind of work I’d like to do. And investors does seem like it’s the main company that’s still doing a whole lot of that. With the exception of, of the Chinese manufacturers, which are obviously doing like tons and tons of new development. But, um, I don’t have the insight into them like I do with the European ones.  Allen Hall: As you’re listening to this podcast, most of the people on this podcast are traveling to Melbourne, Australia for Woma 26. That’s Wind Energy and M Australia. Big event. Matthew, the numbers are impressive. I’m getting a little bit scared. Run out of food and uh, seats because there is a massive influx in the last 24, 48 hours, which is great to see, but wind energy in Australia. Is huge, and the o and m aspect is one of those key pain points. Matthew Stead: Yeah. I think, uh, thanks to Rosie and Alan, your argument, [00:07:00] um, a little while ago, your argument, which spurred the whole, um, the reason for the conference. Um, you know, the, the lack of, uh, Australian content, the lack of, um, poor. Conferences in Australia. I think unless you’d have that argument, um, this event wouldn’t, wouldn’t be there. Allen Hall: Rosie did bring up that she had been to a number of conferences and so had I that were pretty much useless in terms of take home. What could we be able to use in the world and, and make the world just slightly better from our knowledge and. With all the policy talk and uh, discussion about sort of global warming things that it’s not really useful necessarily in making your operations run more efficiently. And this was what Woma is all about is. Sharing information. Not everybody runs their operations the same. And you can learn from that of the way, uh, others do it. And at the same time, we’re bringing in experts from around the world to talk about some of [00:08:00] those really critical issues. One of them being leading edge erosion. And Rosie’s been doing a lot of work in Australia on leading edge erosion and the complexities around that. Rosie, the leading edge erosion discussion and the panel involved in the people are gonna be on the panel are impressive. What are you looking forward to?  Rosemary Barnes: I’m looking forward to, um, getting the international perspective because leading edge erosion, I mean, there’s heaps of aspects of wind turbine operation that I think are just dramatically different in Australia, but I think leading edge erosion is the one that like really, really jumped out at me. When I was, um, when I moved back to Australia and started looking at inspection reports for wind farms that were like one or two years old, and you see 90, 99% of turbines that have significant erosion like within a couple of years. It’s like, this is, this is not. Like, I’ve never, I’ve never seen this before. It’s clear that no one is designing these products that are gonna peel off [00:09:00] within a couple of years. Um, and so that was what kind of got me thinking, you know what, like Australia is really different. Climatically and in terms of the weather. Um, and so we need to start not just getting our information from overseas, but also relating it back to Australia. So I think that that’s what we’re trying really hard with the conference to do, is to like really ground it on Australian problems and solutions that have worked in Australia, but then draw on, you know, we don’t need to invent every single new product ourselves. Although there will also be. I, I’m very confident that, that we do need new products developed specifically for Australia. Um, but you know, there are a lot of things out there we can really accelerate how quickly we can solve our Australian problems if we know what’s worked overseas in, you know, different places and just get ideas about how things work. So I think that’s a really good mix of, of local and international. Matthew Stead: Yeah, as [00:10:00] we were talking before about, um, registrations, so we had. Definitely over 200 now. Um, and, um, I, I think we just need to warn people that we might need to cap it out. Um, so the venue’s told us two 50 maximum, so getting in quick  Allen Hall: and if you haven’t registered, you need to do so today. Go to WMA 2020 six.com. It’s very easy to do. It’s an inexpensive conference and full of great information. And the one thing you wanna register for also when you’re there is the free Lightning workshop. On the Monday, so this, it will be February 16th. It’s a lightning workshop in the afternoon, and then the, the full event begins Tuesday the 17th, and running through Wednesday the 18th. So you have two and a half full days of o and m. Knowledge sharing.  Matthew Stead: Don’t, don’t forget the workshops. There are two sessions of workshops with three, um, parallel sessions. And also don’t forget the chance to catch up with your buddies. So, uh, on the Monday [00:11:00] night, um, after the Lightning Masterclass, there’s, um, an event, you know, food and wine and drinks, et cetera. And then also on the, the Tuesday after the first day, there’s also a chance to catch up  Allen Hall: and you’ll go to Wilma 2026. Com and register. Now.  Speaker: Australia’s wind farms are growing fast, but are your operations keeping up? Join us February 17th and 18th at Melbourne’s Pullman on the park for Wind energy o and m Australia 2026, where you’ll connect with the experts solving real problems in maintenance asset management and OEM relations. Walk away with practical strategies to cut costs and boost uptime that you can use the moment you’re back on site. Register now at WM a 2020 six.com. Wind Energy o and m Australia is created by Wind professionals for wind professionals. Because this industry needs solutions, not speeches,  Allen Hall: the European Commission [00:12:00] has a message for Chinese wind turbine manufacturers. We are watching. Uh, Brussels just opened an in-depth investigation into Goldwind, that’s one of China’s biggest turbine makers. The concern is really straightforward. European regulators believe Goldwin may have received government subsidies that given it unfair advantage. Over European competitors such as Vestus and Siemens, GOMESA, Nordics, and others, grants preferential tax treatment and below market loans are all on the table. And if confirmed, the EU could impose corrective measures under its foreign subsidies regulation, which is a tool designed to keep the playing field level for everyone doing business in Europe. This has led to a number of heated exchanges in the press between China and the eu. China has, uh, said, Hey, eu, calm down. It’s not that big of a deal. We, and we don’t really do this. And if you wanna point [00:13:00] fingers, uh, the EU has given a lot of money and resources to the wind turbine operations in the eu. So it’s a, a, a bunch of back and forth, which is an odd thing at the moment because China is really trying to penetrate the EU market and the UK market for that matter, offshore in particular. Uh, Matthew, when you watch this go on and, and China obviously being the largest player in wind turbines, uh, there is some. Protection isn’t going into this. China has protected themselves from European manufactured turbines for the most part. Uh, it does seem like the EU has a leg to stand on and saying, Hey, if you’re gonna protect your borders, we’re gonna protect our borders. How does this end up? Does this end up with, uh, China making turbines or getting turbines shipped into EU or. There’s just gonna be a prohibition.  Matthew Stead: Uh, actually, I’m a little bit surprised that this hasn’t happened already. [00:14:00] I mean, there’s obviously plenty of European investigations and I’m a little bit surprised it didn’t happen earlier. Um, I, I guess my expectation is that, you know, this will be done and dusted and we can just move, move forward. Um, you know, my, my guesstimate is that it’ll be showing that, you know, this is all fine and, uh, yeah, just continue as per normal. Um, yep. Maybe, maybe critically. Um, I actually think a bit more competition in the industry is a good thing. Um, and so I think the whole, you know, global industry can, can, can benefit.  Allen Hall: And when we’re talking about, uh, the construction of wind farms in the eu, the Chinese manufacturers always come up because they tend to be somewhere between 30 and 40% less expensive than the European counterparts for basically the same turbine. What is the, the real linchpin there, because it does seem like operators and sted uh, evidently had a project going on where they’re looking at Chinese [00:15:00] turbines, but hasn’t made any decisions about it. There’s not a lot of history on the Chinese turbines. You can’t go back and pull, uh, o and m records. You can’t see reliability rates. You can’t see what their insurance rates have been. And Rosie, I think you’ve talked about this quite a bit. It does seem like the manufacturing capability in China is quite good, but then we see things on LinkedIn quite often. We’re uh, there has been some really massive failures there. How is the EU thinking about this? Is it really a competitive issue at this point, or is it a technology issue? What is the real. Uh, linchpin that it, it is, it everybody is trying to get at.  Rosemary Barnes: Yeah. Well I think Europe would be crazy to not support their wind industry because China is so big and has, um, you know, so many wind turbine manufacturers now that if Europe doesn’t specifically try to, you know, compete and survive, then I can [00:16:00] imagine no. non-Chinese manufacturers in 10 years time, um, or you know, at least 20, which I think would be a shame because there is a huge, long history of really good engineering, um, in Europe. Yes. Uh, every country supports their manufacturers. China do it in many, maybe most of their export industries. Everybody knows that. Chinese solar panels are subsidized most countries and regions, except that steel is heavily subsidized in, um, in China. And so there are in many countries restrictions on Chinese made wind turbine towers or tariffs on them. Because of that reason, it’s like pretty. It is pretty uncontroversial. Like it’s pretty obvious, right? That um, if you don’t fight, then um, you say, yeah, we’ll accept all these cheap products then, um, you know, because that’s beneficial for our economy to have them cheap. That’s like a short term thing. It’s [00:17:00] a lot easier in a country like Australia where we don’t have competing industries for many of these, um, many of these products, it’s a bit easier to say, yes, we would love cheap solar panels and cheap wind turbines and cheap electric vehicles and cheap batteries. But I mean, even Australia is trying to regain some of some of that, um, manufacturing capability.  Matthew Stead: But Rosie to, I guess Rosie to challenge you there. I mean, it won’t, it to improve the world’s, you know, position if we, you know, continue to drive prices down and drive a bit of innovation.  Rosemary Barnes: Yeah. If we drive prices down, but not if we drive, um, all competition out of business. And then you’re left with just one country that controls the supply chain for absolutely everything, which they’re already very largely. Do in terms of, you know, like, yeah, batteries, EVs, uh, solar panels, um, heaps of the raw materials, you know, like rare earths and a lot of other critical, um, critical [00:18:00] minerals. But I do think it’s a little bit different for Europe with wind because, um, if that, if that dies, it’s a big chunk of, um, just engineering knowledge that will just. Die with it. I would definitely, especially the countries like Denmark, where it is a, a significant industry for them, I have been a little bit surprised that they haven’t been supporting more the industry through some hard patches. But yeah, let’s, um. It’ll be an interesting next few years. Speaker 6: Delamination and bottomline failures and blades are difficult problems to detect early. These hidden issues can cost you millions in repairs and lost energy production. C-I-C-N-D-T are specialists to detect these critical flaws before they become expensive burdens. Their non-destructive test technology penetrates deep to blade materials to find voids [00:19:00] and cracks. Traditional inspections completely. Miss C-I-C-N-D-T Maps. Every critical defect delivers actionable reports and provides support to get your blades back in service. So visit cic ndt.com because catching blade problems early will save you millions. Allen Hall: Well, occasionally the wind industry has a recycling problem and down in Texas this has come to a head, uh, an Attorney General Ken Paxton. We as the Attorney General of Texas has sued global fiberglass solutions and affiliated companies for illegally dumping more than 3000 wind turbine blades in Sweetwater, Texas. Uh, the company was hired to break down and recycle the blades many years ago. Instead, it stockpiled them at two unpermitted disposal sites. The attorney General is seeking civil [00:20:00] penalties, complete removal of the waste and full cleanup costs paid to the state. And Yolanda, you have seen this facility, I’ve seen this facility down by Sweetwater. It is not a small site. It is massively large and has been there for a number of years. I, I guess there hasn’t been anybody willing to do it, and Global Fiberglass Solutions hasn’t stepped up to even start from what I understand. To take care of the problem. Is there a happy outcome of this? Does anybody else step into the, the fray and, and try to clean up these 3000 blades? Yolanda Padron: We were talking a little bit about this offline, but Rosie you mentioned there’s so many companies that can recycle in general, right? We know just in Texas, there’s a lot of smaller companies. That could take on at least part of, of what’s going on here. And I think, I mean, it’s, it’s something that is [00:21:00] affecting the people that are living there. It’s not just an eyesore. I mean, it’s just, I mean, nobody wants their home to be just this big dumping ground. It’s like a graveyard for blades. And it’s so sad to see that this is really affecting people and just their, how they view wind in the area because. Texas does really, really well with wind in general and that area gets a lot of money in. It’s very oftentimes rural areas that don’t get a lot of funding that are getting a lot of funding for schools are getting a lot of funding for hospitals are, are making sure that their roads are paved. Just in general, a lot of jobs are coming into town and it’s, it should be a really great win-win and it’s just really sad to know that it’s come to this point after years and years where it just, all of the pros are outweighed by a huge calm that is a [00:22:00] huge dumping site in the middle of people. General homes,  Rosemary Barnes: are they saying that it’s they’re storing the blades or did they just pretend that they recycled them and actually landfill them? What’s the Or? It’s unclear.  Allen Hall: They didn’t landfill them. I mean, in a sense, they didn’t bury them. They’re just sitting on the surface.  Yolanda Padron: Piled up.  Rosemary Barnes: I think a lot of this comes down to what, what does recycling mean? What’s your definition of it? Um, and it, depending on what your definition is, there absolutely are plenty of, um, companies, you know, like all over. And I’m sure that there are many more in Texas than there would be in, um, yeah, in the Australian regions I’ve looked at. But there’ll be companies that. Um, already a shredding waste of, from multiple sources and putting it into products like concrete for non-structural applications like, um, footpaths or sidewalks, stuff like that. Um, asphalt is another one. And then a little bit more high tech. You get, um, plastic products that [00:23:00] again, aren’t super duper structurally, um, demanding. So like, um. Decking materials or outdoor furniture, or even I saw one company who’s using recycled material in, um, rainwater tanks. I just really feel like any decent project manager could actually given enough money, like I’m, I’m not saying it’s an economic thing to do, like it’ll always be cheaper to landfill them, um, than to do something with them. But if you’ve been given money to recycle them enough money. Any decent project manager could make that happen?  Allen Hall: Well, just down the road is ever Point Services. And Rosemary, I don’t know if I’ve introduced you to ever Point Services, Tyler Goodell, Candace Woods, uh, they are recycling blades in a totally different way. They’re, they’re grinding them down, but they’re end use product is totally different than anything you have seen and all, although that is just getting ramped up from what I understand so far. The product they’re delivering has a [00:24:00] decent commercial value. It’s helping out in other industries. So it’s not just getting mixed with asphalt necessarily. Those 3000 turbine blades have value. They really do. And ever point, I think if they were involved, would turn them into something really useful. So there is the opportunity to recycle these blades by grinding them down in different, in different ways. But there are new markets. For this product and I’m, I’m just a little shocked that no one’s really stepped forward to say, Hey, I, I’ll take those blazes, but because it’s in a lawsuit, I assume that’s the problem. No wants to walk into there and say. Take responsibility for this thing that’s been hanging around for several years at this point.  Rosemary Barnes: I don’t know. I think I would disagree when, when you say those blades have value, I would be highly surprised if someone would just take them and make a profit from them. I would expect if I had 3000 blades in my backyard, I would expect to pay somebody to take them off my hands. Um. That should have been covered by the fee that they were paid for this [00:25:00] recycling, right? So if that money’s gone now, then there is gonna be a challenge in, um, doing something with it. Because I just want to you reiterate that like recycling is not the economic thing to do with wind turbine blades. Now it’s not even the best thing to do in terms of an energy or environmental or climate change, um, consideration. But if you are sure that you don’t want, um, to deal with the physicality of 3000 blades, um, then. You know, you and you’re prepared to pay to get rid of them, then there are definitely things that you can do.  Matthew Stead: Uh, I think this makes me like super angry because really if we look at it more from a social perspective, um, this is. These pictures are shown all over the world, and whenever I talk to someone and say, Hey, yeah, I’m in the wind industry, they say, oh yeah, what about all those blades in Yeah, and the, the stockpile, blah, blah, blah. So really this, this incident has really screwed up the whole global industry. So it may have destroyed parts of Texas, but it’s also destroyed part of [00:26:00] the global industry. Rosemary Barnes: I agree and it’s, it’s crazy because wind turbine blade waste is five to 10% of global composite waste. So the boats and cars and airplanes, um, and other composites are. They’re not piled up in a recognizable form. And so nobody is absolutely outraged that people are, you know, um, disposing of fiberglass boats every year. Um, so yeah, I mean, that, that, that es me too. I have, um, I’ve spent a long time being annoyed about that fact, and I’ve kind of come around to the, the fact that universally people absolutely hate. Wind turbine blades to be wasted and it just needs to be solved. For that reason, it’s not, it doesn’t need to be solved because of the economics. It doesn’t need to be solved because of the environment. It doesn’t need to be solved because of climate change, but it does really need to be solved because of the social perception.  Allen Hall: Well, as North American Wind Farms age, the companies that keep them running. Keep getting bigger. [00:27:00] And Mohan Wind Service, which if you haven’t worked with them, is a Danish turbine service provider. Uh, and they’ve acquired the operating assets of Canada based AC 8 83. And our friends at AC 8 83 have been evidently working behind the scenes to make that deal go through, which is. Awesome. Actually, uh, the deal gives Mulan a local platform for blade repair and turbine services across Canada and the United States, uh, with more than three. Thousand certified technicians in over 35 countries. Muhan says it is confident the long-term growth in North American market will, uh, continue to prosper. So Muhan come in and saying to AC 83 and others, uh, that they’re, uh, gonna be a, a real powerhouse in terms of a service provider in Canada and the United States and acquiring AC 83 is, is one of the good moves. And we know Lars Benson, [00:28:00] who’s run that business, and Yannick Benson who operates that business today. This is a big deal for both of them and the company.  Matthew Stead: Yeah, I mean, uh, Lars is a great guy and I, I think this is wonderful that you get more economies of scale by, you know, these companies growing and it has to be, has to be great for the industry. O obviously, you know, it’s a good thing for, for Lars and, um, Yanick. Um, but yeah. Yeah. Good on them for, for doing this. And you, we need more companies that are larger and able to operate across different industries. I know the seasonality might, might play into it. I don’t know. Maybe not. Um, but, and the more that companies can work across different regions, the better. Allen Hall: Well, it just gives a C 83 a lot of operating power. So as a sort of a small, medium sized business, that’s one of the problems that you try to scale is just a lot of detail. Human resources, all the legal aspects, and. Uh, international travel people coming back and forth all the time. It is just a lot to operate. Muhan gives them all that infrastructure support. So, [00:29:00] uh, the brain powers that lie at AC 8 83 to do great work can do that work. And they have the muhan to come underneath and provide the support and the, the financial stability. Matthew, as you point out, the season is pretty short up in Canada, uh, to make this thing go. So this is really great news and we’re, I think we’re gonna see more. Of this type of structure happen where the companies that have grown and have shown value to the wind industry, regardless of where they’re located at, are gonna become prized possessions and, and larger companies are gonna want to come in and, and acquire them to expand their portfolio at the same time. And there’s value there. I, I think a lot of ISPs around the world have shown themselves to be profitable, even in some really tough economic times. Uh, they’ve had. Done a good job. And it does seem like the industry is rewarding. Those companies that have put the effort in and have shown themselves to be the professionals that AC 83 is. So this, [00:30:00] this is a really great development. And do we see this happening, uh, through 26 and 27? Because I think, I think that’s where the industry’s headed. But I talk to a lot of my counterparts who say, oh, there is no. Everything’s gloomy and doomy, and none of this is gonna happen, and these companies are gonna just fade away. Where do you think this is headed at Matthew?  Matthew Stead: I think, um, we, we’ve done a little bit of work and we’ve been looking at the industry and I think, uh, if you compare it to, you know, construction or, you know, automotive or whatever, I, I think the, there is a, a strong opportunity for the industry to have some consolidation amongst companies. So I think, um, you know, the industry is still a bit of a baby. You know, maybe whatever, 30 years there is still opportunity, um, for consolidation. You know, much like a few of the other more mature industries, like I said. Um, so I, I, I think there’ll be more of this, um, going on the next few years.  Allen Hall: That wraps up another episode of the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast.

El Senado argentino examina este miércoles un proyecto de modificación de la ley de protección de glaciares. El presidente Milei, que niega el cambio climático, busca flexibilizar la norma en beneficio de la industria minera, prometiendo proyectos millonarios de explotación de oro y cobre. Pero organizaciones ecologistas y habitantes temen el sacrificio de reservas hídricas vitales "por un par de monedas". Reportaje de nuestro corresponsal en Argentina, Théo Conscience.   Estamos en la provincia de San Juan, en la quebrada de San Lorenzo, a más de 4.000 metros de altitud. "Es un lugar encantador de los Andes áridos entre Argentina y Chile", dice Silvio Pastore, coordinador del Gabinete de Estudios de Glaciología, Nivología y Cambio Climático de la Universidad de San Juan. El viento sopla fuerte, pero el oxígeno se hace más escaso. Respirar y hablar ya cuesta un poco más. Alrededor hay montañas de color ocre, rojizo, marrón. Y arriba, un manchón blanco: el glaciar de San Lorenzo. "El paisaje es espectacular porque estamos arriba de un glaciar de escombro. Lo que vemos hacia el fondo es el límite internacional con Chile, el famoso límite divisorio de aguas, con un glaciarete que drena sus aguas hacia el territorio argentino", agrega Silvio Pastore. El glaciarete al que se refiere está cubierto de penitentes, formaciones de hielo características de los Andes, que toman la forma de cuchillas afiladas orientadas hacia el cielo. "Está tipificado como un glaciar, pero hoy la situación es que se ha llenado de penitentes, como lo podemos observar. Eso significa que ya está en un proceso continuo de degradación. Y, en tiempo humano, vamos a ver que esto va a desaparecer casi totalmente". El gobierno planea modificar la ley de los glaciares  En los últimos 30 años, Argentina perdió el 42 % de la superficie de sus glaciares por culpa del calentamiento global. Desde 2010, los 17.000 cuerpos de hielo inventariados y los suelos congelados del ambiente periglacial están protegidos y reconocidos por ley como reservas estratégicas de agua. Pero el gobierno del presidente Javier Milei quiere modificar la ley para dejar que las provincias definan qué zonas deben protegerse, con el objetivo de abrir la puerta a la industria minera. Y, sin embargo, estamos rodeados de una gran riqueza, como una roca que le muestro a Pastore. "Esto que vemos aquí es una composición mineralógica extraordinaria. Esta variedad de colores, de textura… Esta está llena de cristales indicadores de minerales. No sé si los ves, algunos de ellos brillan. Tómale el peso. Es muy pesada. Tiene una densidad que lo que va a dar esta densidad son sulfuros o contenidos de metales, principalmente cobre, oro, plata, zinc". Para Silvio Pastore, la presencia de estos minerales plantea un dilema. Las zonas periglaciales de San Juan son ricas en cobre, un mineral clave para la transición energética y para la lucha contra el calentamiento global que agobia los glaciares. Para el científico, hay que aclarar y flexibilizar la ley de protección de glaciares. "Esta zona que te estoy mostrando es un ambiente periglacial. La ley actual prohíbe la actividad en este ambiente. Pero yo puedo observar, a simple vista, y demostrar con metodología científica, que gran parte de estos cerros que están aflorando no contienen ni agua ni hielo. Pero es un ambiente periglacial. Su significancia hídrica es mínima, comparada, en la misma área, con estos glaciares blancos o glaciares de escombro. Lógicamente, hay sectores en los cuales no se va a poder hacer ninguna actividad, de ningún tipo, pero hay sectores que pueden ser liberados". A pesar de pertenecer a una agrupación del lobby minero, el Grupo Sarmiento, Silvio Pastore dice que no quiere hacer política. Asegura que solo quiere aportar datos científicos al debate público. Pero sus posiciones han sido cuestionadas por otros glaciólogos, incluso en su propia universidad. Juan Pablo Milana, doctor en geofísica e investigador del Conicet, considera que la modificación de la ley propuesta por el gobierno es peligrosa. "Esa modificación deja a criterio de las provincias la posibilidad de desclasificar glaciares. Y el problema es que los criterios están a la venta. Entonces, si hay mucho interés del gobierno de que ocurra una explotación minera, dentro de la universidad siempre vas a encontrar a alguien que diga: 'este glaciar no sirve porque tiene poco hielo, contribuye poco, o lo que sea'". Sacrificar una reserva hídrica por unas monedas  Este científico denuncia que el gobierno quiere cambiar el espíritu de la ley de protección de glaciares, pasando de un criterio de tipo científico a uno político, a la hora de definir lo que es una reserva estratégica de agua. "Este es el problema de utilizar la palabra 'estratégico'. Porque a lo mejor para la provincia es mucho más estratégica esta explotación minera porque va a sacar muchos más impuestos, va a dar más trabajo. Pero, a la larga, es pan para hoy y hambre para mañana. Estás sacrificando una reserva hídrica por unas monedas”. El tema es que estos minerales representan mucho más que unas monedas. Con la incertidumbre del contexto geopolítico actual, el valor del oro y de la plata viene marcando récords históricos. Y el cobre también: el metal rojo es un muy buen conductor. Entre vehículos eléctricos, paneles solares y turbinas eólicas, la demanda explotó estos últimos años, y el precio también. En la cordillera sanjuanina, las multinacionales Lundin Mining (canadiense) y BHP (australiana) impulsan una de las iniciativas mineras más grandes del mundo: el proyecto Vicuña. Tiene reservas estimadas en 35 millones de onzas de oro y 12 millones de toneladas de cobre. Iván Grgic, responsable de relaciones institucionales de Vicuña y presidente de la Cámara de Minería de San Juan, evoca algunos de esos proyectos. "Hay proyectos mineros en distintas etapas. Tenemos dos proyectos… podríamos decir cuatro de cobre en etapa avanzada de exploración. Entonces, cuando el mundo dice '¡cobre, por favor!', San Juan está casi lista para empezar a vender cobre". Chile y el cobre, ¿fuente de inspiración para Argentina?  Iván Grgic destaca el potencial que representa la minería para la provincia y para el país en términos de empleo y de inversiones. Para él, Argentina tiene que inspirarse en Chile, primer exportador de cobre a nivel mundial. "Una frase que me decía mi papá cuando era chico: no te olvides que lo que está del otro lado de la cordillera está de este lado. Si Chile exporta entre 50 y 60 mil millones de dólares al año, Argentina también puede exportar esa cantidad. O sea que podemos generar al país rápidamente un desarrollo muy grande porque el mundo lo requiere y con la seguridad de que lo que estamos iniciando es un desarrollo inmenso para el país, y sin embargo todavía incipiente". Los proyectos mineros de la provincia de San Juan ya atrajeron más de 17 mil millones de dólares de inversión a través del RIGI, el régimen de incentivo a las grandes inversiones impulsado por Javier Milei. Pero para que estas inversiones puedan materializarse y multiplicarse, la ley de protección de glaciares tiene que flexibilizarse, sostiene Iván Grgic. "Todos estos proyectos están avanzando porque entienden que hay seguridad jurídica. Es decir, tú tomas una propiedad minera en donde vos te encontrás con crioformas inventariadas, en donde los estudios iniciales de los proyectos mineros determinan que no tienen aporte hídrico, que no son glaciares ni son crioformas a custodiar. Pero no pueden avanzar en ningún tipo de exploración hasta que la ley no les determine. Entonces, esas inversiones o intereses han quedado latentes". "Jáchal no se toca" Este es justamente el caso del proyecto Vicuña, cuyo futuro open pit, o tajo a cielo abierto, se encontraría en parte sobre un glaciar registrado en el inventario nacional, el GE 110. La empresa quiere desclasificarlo, pero la población local se resiste. "Nosotros desde la asamblea "Jáchal no se toca" generamos, con asesoramiento técnico apropiado, un reclamo en el año 2021”, dice Saúl Zeballos, integrante de la asamblea "Jáchal no se toca". "Ese reclamo fue atendido y fue incorporado al inventario nacional de glaciares. Cuatro años después, estamos peleando nuevamente para que no lo hagan desaparecer al glaciar GE 110". "Jáchal no se toca" es un grupo de vecinos autoconvocados que se reúne todas las semanas en una carpa instalada en la plaza del pueblo con la misión de preservar el río Jáchal. Carolina Caliva, integrante de la asamblea, dice: "Sabiamente, nuestros pueblos originarios se asentaron al lado de un río. Nosotros vivimos en una zona árida. Si no tuviésemos agua, no existiría este pueblo". Los glaciares funcionan como reguladores del recurso hídrico. En las zonas áridas como San Juan, compensan el déficit de precipitaciones. La provincia declaró la emergencia hídrica hace tres años, y los habitantes padecen cada vez más la escasez de agua. "Nosotros ya sufrimos los cortes de agua por días. Hasta perdemos la dignidad. A ver, no tenemos agua para el baño, no tenemos agua para las necesidades básicas. A veces uno abre la canilla y piensa que nunca se va a acabar. Pero cuando padecés esta escasez, hace que uno tome conciencia", denuncia Carolina Caliva. Carolina Caliva y los integrantes de la asamblea ya no creen en las promesas de la industria minera. Hace 20 años que conviven con la mina de oro a cielo abierto de Veladero, propiedad de la empresa canadiense Barrick Gold. "Dejaron contaminación, enfermedad y muerte"  "Venían con el discursito del pleno empleo, del desarrollo sustentable. Ahora está claro que nuestro pueblo sigue tan pobre o más pobre que antes. Y si nos dejan algo, nos dejan contaminación, enfermedad y muerte", subraya Carolina Caliva. Carolina Caliva se refiere a los escándalos de contaminación ambiental por parte de la mina Veladero. "En el 2015 se produce el derrame más grande de la historia de Argentina, por parte de la empresa Barrick Gold. Miles de litros de solución cianurada que afectan a cinco ríos; y ahí ya se ve totalmente modificada nuestra vida". Este derrame y los siguientes impactaron profundamente al pueblo, que depende exclusivamente del río Jáchal para su agricultura. "Acá tenemos alfalfa", dice Omar Aciar, productor, mostrando sus tierras agrietadas por la sequía. "Tenemos otro cuadro ahí de algodón. Y tenemos algo de cebolla también. Eso es básicamente para lo que nos alcanza el agua, nada más". Este productor denuncia el consumo y la contaminación del agua por parte de la industria minera. "Los yacimientos mineros sacan el agua dulce. Entonces acá, cada vez viene el agua más salinizada. Mucho más boro, mucho más arsénico. Entonces ya los crecimientos de las mismas plantas no son iguales. Y ahora se complica porque cada vez tenemos menos agua para el regadío". Por falta de agua, Omar solo pudo sembrar 60 de las 100 hectáreas de su explotación este año. Está muy preocupado por el avance de la minería. El proyecto Vicuña necesitará un promedio anual de 1.200 litros de agua por segundo, 10 veces más que el consumo actual de toda la industria minera en la provincia. "Al paso que van las concesiones de agua para la minería, nosotros estimamos que en 10 años no vamos a poder hacer agricultura acá en Jáchal. Si eso ocurre, moriríamos como pueblo. ¿Qué le dejamos a nuestros hijos? Yo tengo nietos, unos nietos chicos. ¿Y dónde nos vamos nosotros? Ya no tenemos agua potable para el consumo humano, se están secando los pozos. No hay recargas. ¡¿Cómo vamos a sacrificar los glaciares?! Es una cosa muy evidente que el agua es la vida". Agricultores, organizaciones ecologistas y poblaciones locales están juntando fuerzas para resistir el avance de la industria minera en los Andes. A lo largo de la cordillera, ciudadanos se organizan en asambleas populares con una consigna: el agua vale más que el oro, la ley de glaciares no se toca.

Heat pumps are having a moment. Last year, the U.S. passed China to become the world's number one market for heat pumps—and they're not slowing down. But while heat pumps are efficient and effective on paper, they haven't always been objects of desire. Until now.This week, Molly talks to Paul Lambert, CEO and co-founder of Quilt, about building a heat pump company that's equal parts climate solution and consumer product. Paul explains how his team is reimagining the mini-split heat pump—not just as an HVAC system, but as a piece of technology you're proud to have on your wall.We dive into:How heat pumps work: Why an AC is basically "a half-broken heat pump" that only runs in one directionThe two types of heat pumps: Ducted systems vs. ductless mini-splits, and why room-by-room control is a game-changerDesign as climate strategy: How Quilt spent half their initial capital on a domain name and invested heavily in industrial design to create pull, not just policy pushThe installer advantage: Why partnering with contractors (instead of doing it all in-house) unlocked national scaleSmart grid integration: How Quilt's internet-connected system enables demand response without sacrificing comfort—curtailing load in empty rooms while keeping occupied spaces perfectThe data center opportunity: How replacing electric resistance heating with heat pumps near data centers can free up 75% of the energy load—without building new generation capacityWhy incentives help but aren't required: 60% of America is primarily cooling-driven, and heat pumps are just better air conditionersPricing reality: Quilt is competitive with high-end Japanese mini-splits, not luxury-priced like early Nest thermostats or TeslasThe personal mission: How Paul's Alberta roots in the fossil fuel industry and his commitment to his kids' future drove him to climate techKey insight: Space heating and cooling represent half of all home energy use and 70% of fossil fuel consumption in homes—making HVAC the single biggest lever for decarbonizing buildings.Links:Quilt: https://quilt.comFind a Quilt installer: https://quilt.com (click "Find an Installer")All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textA sleepless night in the 90s, a BBC documentary, and a mural that wouldn't let go—this is the spark that powers today's conversation. We follow that current from a teenager's curiosity to a sweeping look at how electricity rewired human history, culture, and ambition. Guided by Raoul Dufy's vast tableau of monuments and machinery, we decode the symbols of progress and the people who carried the charge.We revisit the origins: Thales and the first static experiments, Gilbert's careful notes, Franklin's bold tests, Faraday's fields, and the equations that gave shape to the unseen. The plot intensifies with Edison and Tesla, the current war that defined long-distance power, and Westinghouse's bet that made AC the backbone of modern grids. Along the way, we shine a light on Lewis Latimer, whose filament work helped turn a fragile invention into everyday brilliance. This isn't hero worship; it's a reminder that real breakthroughs demand teamwork, credit, and grit.Then we turn the lens to the present and near future. What does “the spirit of electricity” look like when it's your neighborhood, your workshop, your city's horizon? We talk Nigeria's energy reality: intermittent supply, inventive workarounds, and the promise of mini-grids, smart meters, and renewables. We explore how reliable power drives health, education, and jobs, and why policy and public trust matter as much as turbines and transformers. The challenge ahead isn't just technical—it's cultural. Can we treat the grid as a shared craft, plan beyond election cycles, and train the talent that keeps the lights honest?If you felt that first jolt of wonder from a flicker, a lab demo, or a skyline at night, this conversation is your voltage check. Tap play, see the mural through fresh eyes, and help sketch the next chapter of power: resilient, fair, and built to last. If this resonates, subscribe, share it with someone who loves a good origin story, and leave a review so others can find the spark too.Support the showYou can support this show via the link below;https://www.buzzsprout.com/1718587/supporters/new

Epstīna failu publiskošana: rezonanse ASV un pasaulē. Eiropas Savienības (ES) un Indijas brīvās tirdzniecības līgums - perspektīvas un problēmas. Politiskā krīze Čehijā - konflikts starp prezidentu un valdību. Aktualitātes komentē politologs Veiko Spolītis un Nacionālās Aizsardzības akadēmijas pasniedzējs Jānis Kapustāns. Sāpīgā failu lavīna Piektdien, 30. janvārī, Savienoto Valstu Ģenerālprokurora birojs darīja pieejamu tīmeklī pēdējo porciju no t.s. „Epstīna failiem”, respektīvi, dzimumnoziegumos apsūdzētā un 2019. gadā cietumā pašnāvību izdarījušā finansista Džefrija Epstīna un viņa līdzzinātājas Gisleinas Maksvelas lietas materiāliem. Tie ir apmēram trīs ar pusi miljonu lappušu teksta, vairāk nekā divi tūkstoši video failu un apmēram 180 tūkstoši attēlu. Šo publiskošanu Ģenerālprokurora birojam par pienākumu uzlika Savienoto Valstu Kongresa pagājušā gada novembrī pieņemtais Epstīna failu caurskatāmības akts. Tiesa, pilnīga publiskošana aizkavējusies par vairāk nekā mēnesi pēc Kongresa noteiktā termiņa. Iemesls, kā apgalvo birojs, esot nepieciešamība veikt failu rediģēšanu, pirmām kārtām padarot nepieejamu noziegumos cietušo identitāti. Tomēr, kā atklājuši publiskoto pārlūkojušie žurnālisti, ne visos gadījumos tas ticis konsekventi veikts. Tāpat norādīts, ka publiskotais materiālu masīvs ir absolūti neorganizēts, daudzas elektroniskās sarakstes vienības un izmeklēšanas dokumentu kopijas tajā atrodamas vairakkārt dažādās vietās, pie tam konstatējams, ka dažādās viena un tā paša materiāla kopijās izrediģēta atšķirīga informācija. Šodien, 4. februārī, Ņujorkas federālā tiesa pēc noziegumos cietušo pārstāvju prasības lems par attiecīgā resursa slēgšanu līdz brīdim, kad visa ar cietušajām saistītā informācija būs padarīta nepieejama. Tikām pasaule ar pārsteigumu konstatē, cik plaši un personiski bijuši Džefrija Epstīna sakari dažādu valstu elites, tai skaitā politiskās elites aprindās. Acīmredzami tieši šajos sakaros, tos mērķtiecīgi būvējot un uzturot, viņš balstījis savu biznesa modeli. Viņa paziņu un sarakstes lokā ir atrodami multimiljardieri Īlons Masks un Bils Geitss, britu karaļnama atvase Endrjū Vindzors-Mauntbatens, publicists, netradicionālās medicīnas apoloģēts Dīpaks Čopra, eksprezidents Bils Klintons, Norvēģijas kroņprincese Mete Mārita un citi. ASV Kongresa Uzraudzības komiteja izsaukusi eksprezidentu Klintonu un viņa dzīvesbiedri, kādreizējo valsts sekretāri Hilariju Klintoni uz iztaujāšanu, un vakar kļuva zināms, ka Klintonu pāris piekritis ierasties. Apmēram trīstūkstoš reizes publiskotajos materiālos parādās pašreizējais Baltā nama saimnieks Donalds Tramps, kurš jau paziņojis, ka publiskotais apliecinot viņa pilnīgu nevainīgumu jebkādu Epstīna likumpārkāpumu sakarā. Apmēram tūkstoš reizes šeit uzpeld arī Krievijas diktatora Vladimira Putina vārds, ar kuru gan, pēc visas spriežot, tiešu kontaktu Džefrijam Epstīnam nav bijis. Toties viņa tiešo kontaktu sarakstā ir kādreizējais Krievijas vēstnieks ANO, 2017. gadā mirušais Vitālijs Čurkins un Sanktpēterburgas Ekonomikas foruma fonda vadītājs, Krievijas Federālā drošības dienesta akadēmijas absolvents Sergejs Beļakovs. Prāga iziet ielās Sadursme starp Čehijas prezidentu Petru Pavelu un labēji populistisko premjera Andreja Babiša valdību, kas uzsāka darbu decembra vidū, notikusi ātrāk un ir ar plašāku rezonansi, nekā daudzi prognozējuši. Babišs trešo reizi kļuva par Čehijas premjerministru 2025. gada decembrī, viņa partijai „ANO 2011” izveidojot koalīciju ar partijām „Brīvība un tiešā demokrātija” un „Automobilisti paši sev”. Viens no pirmajiem jaunās varas simboliskajiem žestiem bija Ukrainas karoga aizvākšana no parlamenta ēkas. Par konkrēto ieganstu pašreizējam konfliktam kļuva prezidenta atteikšanās apstiprināt vides ministra amatā partijas „Automobilisti paši sev” pārstāvi Filipu Tureku, kura partija pauž izteikti antiekoloģiskus uzskatus. Tas ir pirmais šāds kategoriska ministra noraidījuma gadījums no Čehijas prezidenta puses kopš 1993. gada, kad stājās spēkā pašreizējā konstitūcija. Kā iemeslu prezidents min Filipa Tureka attieksmi pret valsts likumiem un konstitucionālajām vērtībām – viņš izcēlies ar homofobiskiem, seksistiskiem, rasistiskiem un nacismam simpatizējošiem izteikumiem. Šīs „daiļrades” apkopojumu publicēja izdevums „Denìk N”.  Tāpat nesen, pavadot ārlietu ministru Petru Macinku vizītē Kijivā, Tureks netieši attaisnoja Krievijas agresiju pret Ukrainu. Ārlietu ministrs Macinka, kurš ir arī „Automobilistu” partijas līderis, nosūtīja vairākas īsziņas prezidenta palīgam, solot Tureka neapstiprināšanas gadījumā, citējot, „sadedzināt tiltus tā, ka tas paliks politoloģijas mācību grāmatās”. Viņš nācis klajā ar iniciatīvu, ka Čehiju nākamajā NATO samitā, kas jūlijā notiks Turcijas galvaspilsētā Ankarā, jāpārstāv nevis, kā ierasts, prezidentam, bet gan premjerministram Babišam. Svētdien, 1. februārī, Prāgas Svētā Vāclava laukumā pēc organizācijas „Miljons mirkļu demokrātijai” aicinājuma pulcējās 80 līdz 90 tūkstošus liels protesta mītiņš prezidenta pozīcijas atbalstam. Opozīcijas partijas vakar sarīkoja parlamenta apakšpalātas neuzticības balsojumu Babiša valdībai, kuru kabinets, pateicoties vairākumam likumdevējā, izturēja. Šodien, 4. februārī, paredzēta prezidenta Pavela un premjerministra Babiša tikšanās, lai apspriestu radušos situāciju. Indijas un Eiropas Savienības dižlīgums Tirdzniecības vienošanos, kuru 27. janvārī Indijas galvaspilsētā Ņūdeli parakstīja šīs valsts premjerministrs Narendra Modi un Eiropas Savienības pārstāvji – Eiropas Komisijas prezidente Urzula fon der Leiena un Eiropadomes prezidents Antoniu Košta – abas puses savos paziņojumos krāšņi dēvē par „visu darījumu māti”. Tas patiešām ir apjomos bezprecedenta nolīgums, kas aptver tirgu ar apmēram diviem miljardiem cilvēku un 25% planētas kopprodukta. Vienošanās paredz pakāpenisku ievedmuitas tarifu samazināšanu gandrīz 97% Eiropas Savienības eksporta uz Indiju un gandrīz 100% Indijas eksporta uz savienību – ļoti vērtīgs papildinājums līdzīgu vienošanos komplektam, kas jau saista savienību ar Japānu, Indonēziju, Meksiku, Dienvidamerikas Brīvā tirgus valstu grupu „Mercosur” un virkni citu valstu. Sarunas par šo līgumu tika uzsāktas 2007. gadā, tad 2013. gadā pārtrauktas nepārvaramu nesaskaņu dēļ, līdz atsāktas 2022. gadā. Var tikai lēst, cik lielā mērā par šo sarunu sekmīga iznākuma katalizatoru kalpoja Savienoto Valstu līdera pēdējā gada mētāšanās ar saviem superaugsto tarifu piedraudējumiem kā Ņūdeli, tā Briseles virzienā, taču vairums analītiķu ir vienisprātis, ka tā ir divu globālās ekonomikas smagsvaru reakcija uz pamanāmo līdzšinējās pasaules kārtības ļodzīšanos. Kā par noslēgto vienošanos raksta Austrālijā bāzētās starptautiskās politikas domnīcas Louvija institūts resurss „The Interpreter”: „Tā vietā, lai signalizētu par atgriešanos pie vecā stila tirdzniecības liberalizācijas, Indijas un ES brīvās tirdzniecības nolīgums atspoguļo pragmatiskāku modeli, kas vērsts uz diversifikāciju, noturību un politikas elastību. Tas mazāk darbojas kā tarifu samazināšanas pasākums un vairāk kā piegādes ķēžu stabilizēšanas plāns ģeopolitisku satricinājumu laikmetā.” Domnīca lēš, ka standartu salāgošana pozitīvi ietekmēs digitālās tirdzniecības, intelektuālā īpašuma aizsardzības un atbildīgas ražošanas normu situāciju visā Indijas okeāna reģionā. Kas attiecas uz ražošanas nozarēm, kuras ir paredzamas kā galvenās ieguvējas no šīs vienošanās, tad Indijā tā ir mašīnbūve, ķīmiskā un farmaceitiskā rūpniecība, savukārt Eiropas Savienībā – automobiļu būve un elektronikas ražošana. Savstarpējo loģistikas ceļu stiprināšana paredz sadarbību kuģošanas drošības un vispārējās aizsardzības jomā Indijas okeānā, kur pēdējā desmitgadē manāmi pieaugusi Ķīnas klātbūtne. Šai ziņā svarīgs moments ir arī drošības un aizsardzības partnerības nolīgums, kuru 27. janvārī parakstīja Eiropas Savienības augstā pārstāve ārpolitikas un drošības politikas jautājumos Kaja Kallasa un Indijas ārlietu ministrs Subramanjams Džaišankars. Der piebilst, ka vakar, 3. februārī, Savienoto Valstu prezidents Donalds Tramps paziņoja, ka panākta vienošanās par tarifu samazināšanu importam no Indijas no 25% uz 18%. Sagatavoja Eduards Liniņš.

Let's examine an alternate timeline that sees the Knights of Takhisis take over, corrupt Dragonlances and raise a flying Citadel from Icewall. Buy Legends of the Twins: https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/3252/legends-of-the-twins-3-5?affiliate_id=50797  https://youtu.be/7ptaSEFzU0A Transcript Cold Open Winter should never come in summer. But in this timeline, the snow never stopped falling… And the dragonlances themselves became weapons of darkness. Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga episode. My name is Adam, and today we're taking a look at one of the alternate timelines found along the River of Time: the War of the Darklance. I'd like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron–you can even pick up Dragonlance media or get $10 by signing up to StartPlaying.Games using my affiliate links. I'm referencing the Legends of the Twins sourcebook for this information. If I leave anything out or misspeak, please leave a comment below. Discussion The River of Time carries every age, every hero, and every tragedy forward—but it does not flow as a single, unbroken stream. Branching from it are countless tributaries, alternate Krynns shaped by small divergences or catastrophic changes. The War of the Darklance takes place in one such world. Here, the Graygem is never broken. Chaos is never released. Wild Sorcery and Mysticism never emerge. Ambient magic lies dormant, subdued, and tightly controlled. At first glance, this seems like a safer world. But without Chaos to disrupt the fabric of time, the Balance itself becomes rigid—and fragile. When evil learns from its failures and ceases to destroy itself, the result is not equilibrium. It is domination. At the center of this darkness stands Lord Ariakan, son of Ariakas. Unlike the Dragon Highlords of the past, Ariakan does not cling to pride, infighting, or ancient grudges. Instead, he creates something unprecedented: a unified knighthood modeled after the Knights of Solamnia, but devoted wholly to Queen Takhisis. The Knights of Takhisis embrace modern ideals. They wield magic without fear. They integrate warriors, priests, and mages into a single doctrine. And most importantly—evil does not turn against itself. For the first time, the Dark Queen's forces march with discipline, coordination, and purpose. The turning point of the war comes with an act so profane that it scars the world itself. The Knights of Takhisis cannot create weapons of light—but they can corrupt them. Captured dragonlances are brought before a ritual involving three unholy artifacts: the Altar of Takhisis, the Wand of Corruption, and the Hammer of Darkness. Placed upon the obsidian altar, the dragonlances smoke and weaken. The wand suspends them in a field of pure evil, tearing at their magical essence. Finally, the hammer strikes the blade, sealing the transformation. Thus, the darklance is born. These weapons strip the Whitestone forces of their greatest advantage. And the ritual's consequences ripple outward—into the sky, the land, and the seasons themselves. In the year 383 AC, Ansalon enters a nightmare remembered as the Summer of Frost. Temperatures steadily fall throughout spring. By summer, the world freezes. Crops fail. Livestock die. Starvation spreads faster than any army. The sky becomes perpetually overcast. Paladine seems powerless. Even Chislev cannot restore nature's order. Faith begins to crack. And it is in this moment of desperation that the invasion begins. The Knights of Takhisis strike swiftly. Kalaman falls. The Northern Wastes and Nordmaar collapse soon after. At Icewall, the dead Highlord Aren Feal-Thas is reborn as a death knight, cursed and bound to undeath. Icewall Glacier begins moving north—alive, jagged, relentless—guided by Feal-Thas's thoughts and emotions. Floating above it is Icewall Castle, transformed into a flying citadel. White dragons patrol the skies, wielding darklances, while thanoi, sivak draconians, and barbarian tribes march below. Entire villages vanish beneath the ice. As the Blood Sea freezes solid, the minotaurs see their moment. Led by Chot Es-Kalin, they march across the ice toward Ansalon, beginning a brutal campaign of genocide against the ogres. Though larger and stronger, the ogres lack discipline. Battle after battle, the minotaurs advance—until the thaw comes too late for Chot's secondary forces, which plunge into the Maelstrom beneath the melting ice. Chot himself remains stranded on the mainland, facing an ogre counteroffensive with no retreat. The war spares no one. The Qualinesti Forest burns, assaulted by dragons and Thorn Knights. Qualinost is destroyed. Elves flee—some to Ergoth, others east toward Silvanesti, where they are met with resentment and fear. The High Clerist's Tower falls for the first time in history. Tanis Half-Elven and Steel Brightblade die in its defense. Their fallen comrades are buried in mass graves, their names carved into stone. Palanthas surrenders without a fight. The Tower of High Sorcery is destroyed from within as Dalamar the Dark brings it down to prevent the Knights of the Thorn from reaching the portal to the Abyss. Whether Dalamar survives is unknown. Ergoth becomes the last refuge. Overcrowded. Hungry. Diseased. Clerics of Mishakal work tirelessly, overwhelmed by suffering. Gnomes abandon invention for joy and instead build engines of war. Even the kender feel the weight of despair. Yet resistance survives. Merinda uth Brishard leads roving Solamnic knights. Galvan Stonebreaker wages his private war. Underground movements form in Palanthas and Khur. And even within the darkness, evil begins to strain against itself. Aren Feal-Thas seeks to overthrow Ariakan. Mirielle Abrena consolidates her own power. The Blood War threatens Ariakan's eastern flank. The Balance may yet reassert itself.  This timeline has no fixed ending. The Knights of Takhisis have conquered most of Ansalon. Winter still grips the land. Another natural winter is coming. The Heroes of the Lance are gone. Now, the fate of the world rests with new champions—thieves, killers, outcasts, and survivors—people who may have to abandon honor to preserve hope. If the war can be won, the scars will remain. The land will never be the same. And the people of Ansalon will carry this darkness forever. But if the fight is abandoned—then this tributary of the River of Time ends in ice, silence, and shadow. The War of the Darklance is a world where evil learned, adapted, and nearly won. A Krynn where hope is fragile, honor is costly, and the Balance hangs by a thread.  And that makes it one of the most haunting alternate timelines in all of Dragonlance. Outro But that is all the time I have to talk about the Alternate Timeline: War of the Darklance. Do you like the idea of Dragonlance's being corrupted? Can the death Knight Feal-Thas rival Lord Soth? And finally will the Knights of Takhisis ever be overthrown? Leave a comment below.

That Don't Sound Right is the podcast that brings back the way conversations used to happen — before the internet decided who was an “expert.” In this episode, hosts Peter and Cecil break down a surprisingly practical question: can a plug-in hybrid vehicle like the Toyota RAV4 Prime be used as a temporary home power source during a power outage? The conversation covers how DC power from a car battery is converted to AC using an inverter, what inverter wattage really means, realistic run-time limits, and which household items you can (and can't) safely power. Along the way, they share real-world experiences preparing for storms and blackouts while keeping things informative and entertaining. The hosts also issue a serious warning about the dangers of backfeeding your home's electrical system, and explain safer alternatives like transfer switches, properly installed inverters, and certified whole-house generators.

At level 11, the Cleric stops being "the healer" and starts being "the department of cosmic corrections." Need a miracle? You've got it. Need a battlefield reorganized? Also you. Need the DM to quietly reconsider every encounter they prepped? Congratulations: you just prepared Heroes' Feast and learned that your god's job description includes "professional problem solver, part-time artillery, full-time vibe check." Welcome to Cleric 11–20, where your faith is strong, your spell list is irresponsible, and your party suddenly thinks every plan can be solved by "ask the Cleric." Show Notes Episode Overview In this episode of RPGBOT.Podcast, we break down how to build and play a D&D 5e Cleric from levels 11–20, where your character graduates from "durable support" to "divine Swiss Army catastrophe." We cover late-tier class features, high-level spell priorities, feat and gear considerations, and how to stay impactful when the game gets weird (and the monsters start having resumes). What Changes at Levels 11–20 Your spell slots get absurd: 6th–9th level spells aren't just stronger—they change what "a problem" even means. Channel Divinity becomes a resource-management minigame: It's no longer "use it when you remember." It's "use it to control the pace of encounters." Your role expands: You're still support… but also control, emergency reset button, and occasionally the party's primary win condition. Late-Tier Cleric Priorities (The "Don't Waste Your Turn" Checklist) Action economy matters more than ever: high-level combats punish "I guess I cast Cure Wounds." Concentration discipline: pick the concentration spell that wins the fight, then protect it like it owes you money. Defenses scale or you get deleted: AC, saves, and positioning keep your miracles online. High-Level Spell Picks That Define Your Cleric Rather than listing everything, we focus on categories of "spells that win sessions," and how to choose within them: Battlefield control & tempo (deny actions, reshape positioning, force bad choices) Pre-fight power (buffs that make the party feel like they're cheating) Hard counters & problem solvers (condition removal, anti-magic, planar nonsense) Clutch buttons (resets, revives, "nope" spells for when the DM smiles too confidently) Feats, Ability Scores, and "High-Level Practicality" When to cap Wisdom, when to take resilience/defensive feats, and when a utility feat is secretly the MVP. War Caster vs. Resilient (Con) (and why your table's encounter style decides this). The "I'm level 15 and still miss" problem: improving reliability via positioning, spell choice, and save targeting. Gear and Magic Items (What You Want and Why) We talk about item functions instead of shopping lists: Concentration protection Mobility and positioning Defensive layers (AC, saves, resistances) Spellcasting flexibility (extra casts, broadened options, panic buttons) Playing Cleric at Tier 4 Without Becoming a Solo Game High-level Clerics can accidentally steal the spotlight. We discuss: How to enable party hero moments while still being decisive When to solve the plot and when to support the plot How to coordinate with the DM so divine power feels epic, not adversarial Key Takeaways Tier 4 Clerics are not "healers," they're strategists. Healing keeps the party alive; control and prevention win fights. Your best turns usually aren't reactive. Preempt threats with positioning, concentration, and proactive tempo spells. Protect concentration like it's your hit points. You can lose the fight without losing HP if you drop the spell that mattered. Pick one job per encounter and do it violently well. Control, buff, counter, rescue—trying to do all of it in one round leads to "meh" turns. Your spell list is a toolbox—prep is gameplay. The difference between "good Cleric" and "legendary Cleric" is often made at dawn. Don't build only for peak moments. Tier 4 is swingy; build for reliability so you're useful even when the boss is immune to your favorite trick. You can be the party's win condition without being the party's main character. Enable your allies' big turns, then drop the miracle when it counts.
