Seen by hundreds of thousands, Swedish utility Vattenfall's expletive-laden campaign with Hollywood icon Samuel L Jackson asks the question: Offshore wind farms, yes or no? On this week's episode of Energy Evolution, Vattenfall's head of brand Monica Holmvik Persdotter explains the process behind the campaign and how the utility thinks about public discourse regarding the technology. Effective communication and local engagement have tangible impact on green-lighting new offshore wind projects, David Bidwell, professor of Marine Affairs at the University of Rhode Island in the US, told correspondent Camilla Naschert.

North Carolina. I have Phil Totaro in California, Joel Saxum's back in Texas, and Rosemary Barnes is here from the great country of Australia where Joel and Rosemary, along with Matthew Stead, will be rolling along the countryside visiting with. Wind turbine operators here soon, right Speaker 3: Yeah, so the, the 11th through the 14th, uh, we're gonna be jumping down to Melbourne because of course that's, that's wind central for operators and, uh, ISPs in Australia. And we're gonna be talking about all kinds of stuff with, uh, anybody that listen to us talk. So if you're listening here, uh, and you're in [00:01:00] Australia, connect up, uh, joel.saxo at uh, wg lightning.com. Uh, we'll get some meetings set 'cause we want to, we want to hear what issues are happening down there, right? What can we help with? What can we solve? Of course, Alan and I on the lightning side here, Rosemary is an independent expert engineer for you name it, in turbines. Uh, and our friend Matthew Stat over at iLogic Ping in the CMS space. And amongst the three of us, we also have a huge network, right? So if we're, if we're, if we getting into conversation, getting a chance to chat, tell us what. You got for problems and we'll help you solve 'em. So we'll be down there the 11th or the 14th of August. Uh, reach out.  Speaker 2: Yeah, so there's a lot happening in Australia at the minute. It's starting to come out a winter, getting into blade repair season that is, uh, about to fire up in Australia. A lot going on around the world. And today is Wednesday when we're recording. And this is the day where Vattenfall released their Samuel L. Jackson. Add, it's about a minute long [00:02:00] and you see Samuel L out on the shoreline with a bag of what? Seaweed chips. Joel, is that what they are? Or crackers of some sort?  Speaker 3: Yeah, a hundred percent. I gotta be, I'll be a little bit, little honest with you. I had some of those, not the same ones, not the Vattenfall ones, but I had some the other day just to try 'em out. They're not my flavor. I'm gonna be honest with you. Don't they just taste like sea salt? They taste like seaweed.  Speaker 2: That's what it is.  Speaker 3: I know, but they're, they're not that awesome.  Speaker 2: But these, uh, crackers were the output of the seaweed and all the things growing around the offshore wind turbines. I, I assume it's just seaweed, right, Joel? It's not anything else but seaweed. There's no fish involved in that. It's kelp. But see, like kelp, so  Speaker 3: like offshore kelp farming is a complete industry. Right. It's just like offshore fish farming. They put these lines out, it grows on the lines, and then they pull it in and they harvest it. This is a regular thing, however, having infrastructure out in the water, IE turbine foundations helps with all of these things. It's structure there that protects 'em from, um,

In deze aflevering gaan we met Ellie Lust op zoek naar de essentie van Pride: niet alleen een feest, maar ook een herinnering aan wat er op het spel staat. Waarom blijft die zichtbaarheid noodzakelijk? En waarom is het belangrijk dat de politie ook zichtbaar aanwezig is bij de Pride? En is er ooit een moment dat we het niet meer gaan vieren?Ellie Lust houdt een pleidooi om het niet meer over acceptatie te hebben, inclusiviteit voor diversiteit te plaatsen, ze deelt hoe het vroeger thuis ging en roept de straight allies naast degene te staan die het nodig heeft. Ze deelt haar zorgen, maar ook haar visie: wat er moet gebeuren om weer vooruit te komen, richting een land waar gelijkheid niet afhangt van de dag op de kalender, of de plek waar je werkt, woont of liefhebt.

We zijn aan de grond genageld van de vele tips voor het NIET knagen aan je nagelriemen en al helemaal NIET aan die van je tenen. Gwen stond met een half been in een Netflix-serie, maar helaas verliep dit net even iets anders. Net zoals het item waar het over ging trouwens… Voor Ger gaat het deze week over vliegtuigschaamte, of ja, het gebrek aan schaamte in het vliegtuig. Als laatste: hoe zorg je ervoor dat je je schoonmoeder niet uit het raam gooit? Klaar voor een aflevering boordevol handige do’s and don’ts én misschien wel de gênantste Spill the Tea aller tijden?

Milgrams experiment på 60-talet testade människors vilja att ge en "elev" elstötar ända till döds när de var under handledning av en "auktoritet". Målet var att bevisa tyskarnas unika ondska genom att först skaffa grunddata på amerikaner. Det visade sig att i stort sett alla amerikanska kandidater var villiga att tillfoga elstötar på tortyrnivå och 65 procent ända till döds. Syftet att testa tyskar övergavs. Det finns många exempel i vårt samhälle på vad medmänniskor, politiker och byråkrater är villiga att utsätta sina medmänniskor för med stöd av experter, lag, och auktoritet.

Två stora parallella satsningar i norra Sverige vill revolutionera stålindustrin. Men det finns hinder på vägen. President Trump har nyligen infört nya höga ståltullar och satsningarna brottas med förseningar. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Stålrevolution i NorrlandStålindustrin är en av de allra största utsläpparna av koldioxid och sen några år tillbaka pågår en mindre revolution inom området. Målet är att producera stål med så litet fossilt utsläpp som möjligt och Sverige står i blickfånget i omställningen.Två projekt i varsin fil på samma vägJust nu håller uppstickaren Stegra på att bygga ett nytt stålverk och en ny vätgasanläggning i Boden. Finansmannen Harald Mix, som också låg bakom Northvolt, är en av grundarna. Samtidigt tuffar Hybrit på. Samarbetet mellan statliga gruvbolaget LKAB, statliga Vattenfall och stålbolaget SSAB - som delvis också har statligt ägande genom LKAB och finska staten. Men båda projekten brottas med olika utmaningar och frågan är vem som kommer att först komma i mål - eller vem som vill komma först?Nya ståltullar Nyligen införde president Trump tullar på 50 procent för allt stål som USA importerar från EU och andra länder. Frågan är hur de svenska satsningarna påverkas av de höga tullarna och hur risken ser ut för att stål från andra länder nu kommer flöda in i Europa och dumpa priserna?Programledare:Erika MårtenssonProducent:Olof WijnbladhMedverkande och röster i programmet:Jens Kärrman, journalist Dagens IndustriGert Nilson, teknisk direktör JernkontoretJan Moström, vd LKABNiklas Johansson, kommunikationsdirektör LKABHenrik Henriksson, vd StegraHarald Mix, finansmanMaria Perhard, ScaniaAssia Gaouar, riskkapitalfonden DemeterStefan Löfven, fd statsminister (s)ekonomiekotextra@sverigesradio.se

And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! Good news from the offshore wind industry today. Vattenfall has named a new leader for its wind business division. Catrin Jung will take over as Head of Business Area Wind starting July first. Jung currently leads the company's offshore wind operations. She replaces Helene Bistrom, who is leaving the company. Jung joined Vattenfall in two thousand two. She has managed some of the company's largest investments in recent years. The wind division handles both offshore and onshore wind projects. It also manages large solar and battery projects. Jung says staying focused on fossil freedom is more important than ever in these uncertain times. The Netherlands reached a major renewable energy milestone last year. Renewable energy made up nearly twenty percent of the country's total energy use in twenty twenty four. That's up from seventeen point four percent in twenty twenty three. Statistics Netherlands released the preliminary data. The increase comes mainly from new offshore wind turbines and more biodiesel use in transportation. The overall renewable energy consumption reached three hundred fifty eight petajoules. That's a fifteen percent increase from twenty twenty three. Biomass remained the largest renewable source. Wind came second, followed by solar power. Renewables were mostly used for electricity at sixty percent. Heat and cooling accounted for twenty eight percent. Transport fuels made up twelve percent. The share of renewables has more than doubled compared to five years ago. A major wind energy project in Quebec has secured its funding. Invenergy and a consortium of 209 municipalities and territories in Eastern Quebec announced the closing of one point one billion dollars Canadian in financing. The money will fund the PPAW 1 Wind Energy Centre. The work will create three hundred fifty jobs during construction. Construction will happen throughout twenty twenty five and twenty twentysix. Commercial operation is expected in late twenty twenty six. Once operational, the project will add three hundred fifty megawatts to the local grid. France has achieved a renewable energy first. EDF Renewables has fully commissioned the country's first floating wind farm. The Provence Grand Large wind farm has a power capacity of twenty five megawatts. The farm features three floating wind turbines installed seventeen kilometers off the France's Mediterranean coast This is the first floating wind farm in France and across the entire Mediterranean basin. The project uses unique anchoring technology. Siemens Gamesa built the turbines. They're installed on floats with tight anchor lines. The technology was inspired by systems used to stabilize oil platforms. SBM Offshore and IFP Energies Nouvelles developed this technology. It's suitable for deep sea areas and provides excellent float stability. Bernard Fontana, Chairman and CEO of EDF, says the project helps diversify renewable energy sources. He calls it an important project for France's energy sovereignty. The experience will help with construction of EDF's second floating wind farm, Mediterranee Grand Large. EDF was awarded that contract in December twenty twenty four.

Dans les années à venir, des milliers d'éoliennes atteindront leur fin de vie. Et avec elles, des tonnes de matériaux à recycler. Si les pales et turbines peuvent être fondues, ces opérations sont coûteuses en énergie. Le fournisseur suédois Vattenfall a décidé d'anticiper cette problématique autrement, en s'engageant à recycler 100 % de son parc éolien d'ici 2030. Pour y parvenir, l'entreprise a lancé, avec la Fondation néerlandaise du design, un appel à projets original : donner une seconde vie aux nacelles, ces imposants blocs techniques au sommet des mâts. La réponse la plus audacieuse vient des Pays-Bas, avec le cabinet d'architectes Superuse, en collaboration avec le studio Blade-Made. Leur idée : transformer une nacelle en véritable habitat résidentiel. Et le résultat a été dévoilé à la Dutch Design Week 2024, sous le nom de "Tiny House Nestle".Issue d'une ancienne éolienne V80 de 2 MW, installée en Autriche en 2005, la nacelle a quitté ses cent mètres de hauteur pour se poser sur la terre ferme, métamorphosée en mini-maison autonome. Dix mètres de long, quatre de large, trois de haut : un espace de 36 m² aménagé avec soin. Bois clair, matériaux recyclés, cuisine, salle de bains, coin nuit… et des équipements dernier cri : pompe à chaleur, panneaux solaires, chauffe-eau et ventilation intelligente. L'isolation est soignée, les fenêtres en triple vitrage, et le tout respecte les normes d'habitation. Une tiny house au style industriel et durable, qui peut devenir bureau, annexe ou studio de jardin. Une preuve concrète que le recyclage peut aussi rimer avec design et ingéniosité. Et une inspiration pour repenser nos infrastructures… même une fois leur mission achevée. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Det här är bara utvecklingen, den får vi vika oss för! Så beskriver statsvetaren Evert Vedung den inställning som gjorde att Sverige på kort tid lyckades skapa ett överskott av elektricitet, med ett högt pris för naturen och samerna. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Programmet sändes första gången 20220830.Sveriges elhistoria är den om tidig och snabb utbyggnad av olika energislag som kunde producera el till låga priser. Om innovationer, framsynthet och långsiktighet, men också om naturvärden som offrades i moderniseringens namn. Har vi idag något att lära av den historien, när nu elproduktionen i landet behöver öka kraftigt och snabbt, för att vi ska nå klimatmålen och samtidigt ha en ekonomi i tillväxt?I tre program besöker Vetenskapsradion några olika elhistoriska platser i Sverige. I denna första del bland annat Horndal i Dalarna, som var den sydliga slutpunkten för den första kraftledningen mellan norra och södra Sverige, vilken togs i drift 1936. Horndal är än idag en stor knutpunkt för kraftledningar och inte minst därför har Google planer på att bygga ett gigantiskt datacenter där, som kommer att sluka oerhörda mängder el.Vi får också höra historien om hur det spektakulära Stora Sjöfallet i Lappland offrades för vattenkraften.Medverkande: Magnus Carlson, förvaltare Vattenfall; Kerstin Enflo, ekonomhistoriker Lunds Universitet; Lasse Wallbing, kraftverksveteran och aktiv i Porjus arkivkommitté; Lars-Erik Lindström på museet i Krångede; Evert Vedung, professor emeritus i statsvetenskap på Uppsala Universitet; Börje Forslund, lokalhistoriker från Avesta samt Bengt Söderkvist, boende i Horndal.Reporter: Mats Carlsson-LénartProducent: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.se

Call it the holy grail: producing steel without emitting greenhouse gases. In Sweden, three companies – SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall – have been working on it for years under the name HYBRITE. With a pilot plant in operation, the proof of concept has been delivered. Is the production of so-called ‘green steel' ready for scale-up? And if not, what challenges remain? To answer these questions, I'm joined by Mikael Nordlander, Director of Partnerships at Vattenfall and one of the brains behind HYBRITE.

I detta avsnitt möter vi Monica Holmvik Persdotter, varumärkeschef på Vattenfall, som delar med sig av sina insikter och lärdomar.

I Forsmarksområdet i Uppland finns tre kärnkraftsreaktorer och där finns också Sveriges kanske tätaste population av havsörn. Flera faktorer tycks gynna örnarna. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Området kring kärnkraftsreaktorerna och den anläggning som ska förvara avfallet från hela det svenska kärnkraftsprogrammet i Forsmark hanteras och regleras på särskilda sätt och det verkar finnas flera faktorer i den här storskaliga satsningen på kärnkraft som har gynnat havsörnarna.Innan kärnkraftverket byggdes i början på 1970-talet minskade antalet fritidsboende i området när Vattenfall köpte upp och rev många sommarstugor. Det rörliga friluftslivet har också begränsats eftersom folk inte får röra sig hursomhelst i området av säkerhetsskäl. Det har gynnat havsörnarna som är känsliga för mänsklig störning.Eftersom kärnkraftverket har släppt ut varmvatten i kustvattnet har fiskar kunnat växa sig större och det isfria vattnet har förbättrat övervintringsmöjligheterna för sjöfågel, vilket sammantaget har gynnat födotillgången för havsörnen.Men där är inte bara gott om havsörn. Det övriga fågellivet och djurlivet är också mycket rikt, enligt forskning som har följt naturens utveckling i Forsmarksområdet i flera decennier.Reporter: Gustaf Klaringustaf.klarin@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se

Visit build turbines.com today. Now here's your hosts, Allen Hall, Joel Saxum, Phil Totaro, and Rosemary Barnes. Allen Hall: If you checked your mailbox or checked online, the new PES Wind magazine is out and it is full of great content this quarter. There's a very interesting article because we've been talking a lot about offshore wind and some of the problems with offshore wind as one of them is corrosion. Just betw between us engineers, it comes up quite a bit. Like, why are we making things outta steel that you don't need to make outta steel, why you're not making them out of plastic? And that's what, uh, the people at, uh, Nylacast engineer products are doing, um, on some hang off clamps, Joel, uh, which are traditionally really cheap clamps that are made outta steel and rust like [00:01:00] crazy. Joel Saxum: Yeah. You know, from my oil and gas offshore background, that was one of the things that was always a pain in the butt. IIRM contracts, as they call 'em, offshore inspection, repair, and maintenance. There's so much focus on coatings, paint coatings, paint coatings, and it's a special coating, and it's this, and you can only apply it during this, and everything has to be painted. And if you can't allow rust to start anywhere on an offshore facility, it's in a high corrosion environment, right? You have salt water, salt spray temperatures, it's always kind of wet. It's a marine environment. And so erosion moves very fast, right? So in the, in the oil and gas world, they started creating some things out of like HDPE, which is high density, polyethylene, plastic. Um, it's even so dense. You can mill it. It's really cool stuff. But that's what, um, the PO the kind of Nylacast engineered products is working with some of these plastic products to replace some of those components in offshore wind turbines that are a pain in the butt to maintain. So when we talk about these hang off clamps. [00:02:00] They grab the cables and other things and they, and they hold them in place in the turbine as need be. If those are made outta steel and have a coating on 'em, and you get a little bit of vibration and that coating starts to wear away or starts to get a little bit of rust, you've got a huge problem. You've gotta take the cables out, you gotta take the things off, you've gotta replace 'em. You gotta either replace them or you gotta grind on 'em and repaint them. It is a nightmare. So they're, what they're doing with these, um, uh, hang off clamps that are, you know, basically plastic instead of metallic. Or a plastic type instead of metallic is there, they're removing that need for IRM contracts in the future. Allen Hall: I think it's great. It makes a ton of sense. And I'm surprised you haven't seen more of this because, uh, nylon and and derivatives in nylon are easily recyclable. It does fit all the things that wind energy is looking for. It doesn't. Rust recyclable, easy, lightweight, simple. We need to be moving this direction. So if you haven't checked out PES Wind, you go to PS wind.

De Week van Energeia is dé nieuwspodcast voor de energieprofessional. Elke vrijdag praten redacteuren van Energeia je in ongeveer twintig minuten bij over de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in de complexe energiewereld. Met deze week: bedrijven die transportcapaciteit op het stroomnet nodig hebben, moesten daar vorig jaar langer op wachten. Dit, ondanks de inspanningen van netbeheerders om het net uit te breiden. Dat blijkt uit het overzicht ‘De stand van de uitvoering’, van Netbeheer Nederland. Hoe het er precies voor staat met de elektriciteitsnetten in Nederland, vertelt redacteur David Duijnmayer. Hoofdredacteur Wouter Hylkema licht toe waarom de Tweede Kamer een vrijstelling wil van de CO₂-heffing voor industriële bedrijven die plannen om te elektrificeren niet kunnen uitvoeren door netcongestie. En waarom energiebedrijf Vattenfall bezwaar heeft gemaakt tegen zijn eigen vergunning voor de bouw van windpark IJmuiden Ver Bèta.

I'm your host, Allen Hall, along with my co host, Joel Saxum. Today, I'm delighted to welcome Birgit Junker, a true pioneer in wind energy blade technology and the co founder of the Global Blade Group. This organization has become the premier forum for the wind turbine blade experts to collaborate, share knowledge, and drive innovation in areas like structural design, Lightning protection and blade inspection technologies. Welcome to Uptime Spotlight. Shining light on wind energy's brightest innovators. This is the progress powering tomorrow. Allen Hall: Birgit, welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast Spotlight. Birgit Junker: Thank you very much and thanks for having me. Allen Hall: I want to start off by looking back a little bit into 2013. What were some of the challenges that when farm owners were facing with Blade technology and maintenance that led you to create the global Blade group? Birgit Junker: To start with Rege from Vattenfall and I, we were relatively new on the owner operator side. And we both found that when we were speaking to our colleagues, they, their eyes just glazed over every single time we said Blade. Cause nobody knew anything about blade. When I was hired at Eon I came from from Siemens. I was hired at Eon. I was told that they didn't have blade issues. So I should expect to work about 80%, 75 percent on blades. And the rest of the time I should be spending on a drivetrain. 10 years later, when I left, there were 10 blade people. And I never ever had to look at a drivetrain. That was the attitude then. Blades were not a problem. We didn't have blade problems. Blades were like that black box that you had. You just went out there and counted that they were all there. And you listened just to make sure that there wasn't anything strange going on. And about, you 99. 9 percent of the time, nothing happened. There was nothing wrong. We even had contracts that said that blades were maintenance free. But then Reg and I started on the owner operator side. We came, we both came from OEMs. I've done catastrophic failure investigation. I've done field failures. I've done all sorts of things for what, 10 years before that. And knew that we did have blade problems. Ian just hadn't found out yet. So when I started, Reg and I, we decided that we needed to talk to one another because we couldn't talk to colleagues. Joel Saxum: Birgit, from experiences in the field I would, I want to follow up with that as a hard second. Because so many people Don't understand even today what's going on in the with blades. Like I'll give you an anecdotal problem. I was in a field doing an RCA and out there with a site supervisor who was in charge of 120 odd turbines, big wind farms in the States, right? And he was looking up. He said, yeah, those blades, he's they're just, big plastic wings in the skies. And I was like, they're not actually plastic. And he goes what do you mean?

Industry news lightning fast. Your hosts, Allen Hall, Joel Saxum, and Phil Totaro discuss the latest deals, mergers, and alliances that will shape the future of wind power. News Flash is brought to you by IntelStor. For market intelligence that generates revenue, visit www. intelstor com. Allen Hall: First up, Swedish utility Vattenfall is investing 5 billion euros in Germany through 2028, showing major commitment after selling their Berlin heating business. The company plans to build 500 megawatts of solar parks and 300 megawatts of large batteries annually. Two major offshore wind parks, the Nordelake 1 and 2, will add 1. 6 gigawatts of wind capacity. And they're also investing 500 million euros in EV charging infrastructure. Wow, Phil, Vattenfall's going a little crazy in Germany at the moment. This is a big investment. Philip Totaro: Well, and it's coming at a kind of an interesting time because, there's been some, uh, hard to say whether it's mild or moderate disarray in the German government at this point particularly in terms of the level of support that is, is gonna be provided long term to, to renewables. But Vattenfall at least understands and appreciates the fact that, they've got a pipeline that, that's pretty big besides the Nordlicht 1 and 2 projects. I think they've got an additional 1. 5 gigawatts of onshore wind and or solar and, and battery pipeline That they have in, in Germany. So, they're, they're really swinging for the fences here and committing a rather large amount of capital at 5 billion Euro. So that's it, it's, again, it, it could be challenging short term timeframe, but long term they're positioning themselves to be, as big of a player in, in Germany as they, they are in some of the other markets outside of, of Sweden. Where they operate. Joel Saxum: I think a big part of this five billion euros as well as that Nordlicht one and two for 1. 6 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity, because that's just a lot of money to build that big of wind farms offshore. But when you look onshore in Germany, it's a bit harder to develop wind. You have permitting issues and those kind of things, but the tracks of land, it's not like we're here in the United States where we can put 100, 150 turbines out. The tracks of land are smaller, The setback limits are a lot bigger. They have different rules, right? It's a little operations and maintenance is a bit more difficult, more expensive because you have, it's like you have to test your lightning protection systems every two years. You, you have to have multiple ice detection systems. If you're within a certain setback of a road, there's, there's all kinds of little nuances in Germany there. But Vattenfall clearly sees the the advantages of doing some business there. And I know that Germany as a whole. Like you said, Phil, they're in a little bit of a turmoil right now, but they need it. So good on them. Allen Hall: In our second story, Octopus Energy has surpassed two billion dollars in offshore wind investment...

Pardalote Consulting - https://www.pardaloteconsulting.comWeather Guard Lightning Tech - www.weatherguardwind.comIntelstor - https://www.intelstor.comWind Energy O&M Australia Conference - https://www.windaustralia.com Allen Hall: Well, Joel, we just don't seem to have the luck of some people, I'm telling you. Because a gentleman down in North Carolina found a 20 bill laying on the ground outside of a gas station and used it to buy, of all things, a scratch off lottery ticket. And that ticket was worth one million dollars. Joel Saxum: You know, Allen, sometimes they say, you gotta play to win. And if someone, if some, by some luck of chance, you get 20 and it's not, you're playing with the house's money, then. I think that, uh, maybe we need to just keep our heads on the ground a little bit more. Allen Hall: He had the opportunity to buy all kinds of lottery tickets. I don't know if you go into a gas station in North Carolina, there's several kinds there. He couldn't find the one that he wanted. So he ended up buying just one that seemed okay. And that was the winning one. So if he had chosen the ticket that they had, the ticket that he wanted, he wouldn't be a million dollars richer. Now, the real funny thing about this is they asked this gentleman, well, what are you going to do with all that money? And it says, we are going to head straight to Golden Corral and eat everything they've got. So he's gonna spend like 40 bucks worth of it? It's hard to spend a million dollars at Golden Corral. But, however, I, it did force me to take a look at the dessert menu. Cause that's one thing about Golden Corral is that they have a lot of desserts. It's like, it's a big dessert bar thing. And If you, I will read some of these to you and go, wow, okay, this is not bad, right? Chocolate dip marshmallow skewers. Come on. I'm out on that. No way. So they have cakes and pies. They always have cakes and pies. All right. All right. Right? Pumpkin pie, peanut butter pie. The Sweet Home Carolina cake, which is popular. Uh, carrot cake. Are you a carrot cake fan? I am, but it has to have good frosting. It's gotta be a cream cheese frosting. Otherwise, I'm out. Carrot cake is an acquired taste. I think it's an American taste, weirdly enough. Now, do you want it with walnuts? No walnuts. No nuts. I want it clean and clear. And I have had one with a little bit of ginger in it that was Joel Saxum: really good. Allen Hall: Oh, the ginger is terrific in carrot cake. I have to admit, I'm a recent convert on that one because I thought, there's no reason to put ginger into a cake. What are we doing? But it is quite good. So this, this gentleman is going to be a golden corral quite a while. I wonder what the calorie intake is going to be in his life for the next couple of years.

The UK's latest renewable auction has given a significant boost to the offshore wind sector. With a record budget of 1. 5 billion pounds, the auction awarded contracts to 131 wind, solar, and tidal projects, capable of generating almost 10 gigawatts of capacity. Notable winners include Orsted's Hornsea 4 project in Iberdrola's East Anglia two, and three projects. However, analysts note that this still falls short of the capacity needed to meet the country's target of 60 gigawatts of offshore wind by 2030. The UK has reached a significant milestone in wind power generation capacity. The country has surpassed the 30 gigawatt mark of combined offshore and onshore wind installations. This milestone was achieved with the commissioning of SSE Renewable's 443 megawatt Viking Wind Farm. in Shetland this past June. According to Renewable UK, the UK's current wind capacity can meet the annual power demand of over 26 million homes and reduce carbon emissions by more than 35 million tons per year. In Sweden, Vattenfall has decided to pause the development of the Swedish Krikers Flak offshore wind power project due to unfavorable investment conditions. This project, located about 30 kilometers south of Trollberg, was estimated to generate 2. 7 terawatt hours of fossil free electricity annually. Fattenfall cited the lack of a reasonable connection point to the national grid offshore as a key factor in this decision. U. S. wind energy investment has seen a significant boost in the first half of 2024, according to Bloomberg NEF's Renewable Energy Investment Tracker. While solar investment fell by 12 percent to 26. 5 billion, wind projects secured 12 billion in funding. This surge has contributed to a 63 percent increase in total renewable energy investment in the U. S. Orsted, the Danish company developing Rhode Island's first commercial offshore wind project, has announced plans to expand its presence in the Ocean State. The company will open a new engineering, procurement, and construction hub in Providence, relocating to a 17, 000 square foot office building. Orsted also plans to double its existing 100 person workforce in Rhode Island in the coming years. Over in New Jersey, the leading light wind project is facing challenges. The company has requested a pause from the New Jersey Board of Publ...

And a biscuit in the United States doesn't mean anything, and a biscuit in the UK means a cookie, it's a cracker cookie, it's a common, it is a cookie, like an oatmeal cookie, that's the way I, Taste it, that's what it tastes like. There's really no equivalent in the United States. So they ran a poll, it was very interesting because there, it was a definite choice here. So there was four, rich tea, bourbon, hobnob, and fig roll. And I think I have tried fig roll it's not my thing. Philip Totaro: Chocolate digestive isn't even one of the how do, this is not a legitimate poll. I'm sorry this, if chocolate digestive is not on the list, then we have a problem. Joel Saxum: That's what we, that we eat, there's a box of them in the, in our living room right here, so again, my better half from Newfoundland they were the last British colony in Canada. So we drink tea and have digestives. Allen Hall: When you have tea, you can't have chocolate and tea. Those two just do not go together. It's so uncouth. The Queen would never do that. It's almost like gingerbread. So the survey results are really fascinating. 61 percent of your wind turbine technicians in the UK prefer hobnobs. Philip Totaro: Alright, that I believe. But again, they weren't given the option of chocolate digestives, so I still think this is not a legitimate poll. Joel Saxum: He did throw some chocolate in there because the bourbon is chocolate. It has a chocolate cream filling. , right? It's not bourbon flavored. It doesn't have bourbon in it. Philip Totaro: Although if it did, that might be number one, Joel. Joel Saxum: And when farm sites, I think that the bourbon cookie is, it's named after some like French Aristo aristocracy. Allen Hall: But I, if we're gonna ask the same question in the United States, I'm not even sure what the list would consist of. And I think that was what my, piqued my curiosity is if we're talking about cookies, we get rid of all the illicit things, right? Now we're down to Oreos, some sort of chocolate chip cookie. What else? Twinkies? Ho Hos? Joel Saxum: You got to say, you got to say what's for, what's the most popular lunch thing, right? It's going to change. Oh yeah. Yeah. Like the most popular lunch I would say probably in Texas is. Burritos or tacos? Because there's literally taco trucks that pull up to O& M buildings and sell tacos at lunchtime. Allen Hall: That's just true. See, but there's a difference in the UK because they have a break, right? There's a there's a morning tea break that happens. Yeah, like America we have to work through till dinnertime, but if you were to have a break in America Say at 10 a. m. right? You say, okay, I've been working since six. It's 10 a. m. It's black coffee. It's just black coffee. Oh, that it may be just black coffee.
