Wind energy is great for the traditional grid, non-grid applications and the production of green molecules, such as green hydrogen, green ammonia and sustainable aviation fuel. Learn more about why wind energy is one of the keys to a net zero 2050 world. https://radia.com/whywind

Happy World Environment Day! 🌎 Did you know that global carbon emissions in the last five years would have been three times larger without clean energy technology? According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the rise of solar, and wind power has been a game-changer in our fight against climate change. Electric vehicles, now making up one in five new car sales in 2023, have also been pivotal in keeping oil demand from skyrocketing. In the EU, emissions from energy production fell by nearly 9%, with clean energy growth contributing to half of this reduction. And wind power surpassed both natural gas and coal in energy generation for the first time ever! It's awesome to see how innovation and technology can positively impact our energy future and sustainability. As we celebrate World Environment Day, How can we further accelerate the adoption of clean energy technologies to achieve our sustainability goals? Let's discuss in the comments 👇 #WorldEnvironmentDay #EV #Solar #CleanTech #Innovation

As we celebrate World Environment Day, How can we personally further accelerate the adoption of clean energy technologies to achieve our sustainability goals? #WorldEnvironmentDay #EV #Solar #CleanTech #Innovation (acknowledge Nico Rosberg on this post)

Longer-running wind turbines are key to a seamless transition to sustainable energy. TE enables durable connection to increase turbine longevity ➡️ https://bit.ly/44Edvuw

Without chips, no digital transition, no green transition, no technological leadership. With today’s informal meeting of Energy Ministers at the Council of the European Union, ESIA calls on EU decision-makers to acknowledge the essential role of #semiconductors in #enabling low-carbon, energy-efficient, and carbon footprint-reducing solutions. They are crucial components for solar panels, wind turbines and heat pumps alike, just to name the most obvious examples.

Like many good things in life, wind turbines don’t last forever. But disposing of retired turbine blades can be a headache for the renewable energy industry. They’re made of materials that can’t always easily be recycled. But from cycle shelters to bridges, life-expired blades are finding innovative new uses around the world. And the first 100% recyclable turbine blades have just been produced in Denmark. Read more about this innovation here: https://lnkd.in/gqxnv-bb

This article is a great example of how cross-industry collaboration drives change. Steel is a large component in the manufacturing of #windturbine towers. Keen to drive down steel manufacturing #emissions, Siemens Gamesa created a standard for greener steel production. The standard requires the use of less intensive steel manufacturing processes, the adoption of more renewable energy in manufacturing, and where possible the inclusion of recycled steel. https://okt.to/aZ7wCt Its adoption will ensure greener wind turbines, improve product circularity and increase the demand for #reverselogistics.

#DYK All hydrogen produced by EverWind Fuels will be green hydrogen?  Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. It is an energy dense, cardon-free fuel source, making it a vital tool as the world fights climate change through decarbonization.  Green hydrogen is hydrogen that’s produced using renewable sources of electricity, such as wind or solar power.

We're moving forward! The Danish wind turbine manufacturer Vestas will supply the turbines for the Nordlicht 1 and 2 offshore wind farms. The contract was signed by BASF and Vattenfall earlier today. Great news - also for the climate. Not only are the new turbines the most powerful on the market, but parts of their towers are fabricated with low-emission steel. This significantly reduces their CO2 footprint. Nordlicht, which is co-owned by Vattenfall and BASF, is expected to supply around 6 TWh of electricity from 2028. BASF will use around half of this to supply its production sites. An important step towards climate neutrality! #netzero2050 #renewables #greenenergy #nordlicht #windfarm
