Electricity Maps

WELCOMING FILIP JATELNICKI! We're pleased to welcome Filip Jatelnicki to Electricity Maps. On October 1st Filip joined our Grid Forecasts team as a Machine Learning Engineer to help the team expand its forecasting capabilities across signal types like carbon intensity, power production or price and across time horizons.. "I'm excited to bring my ML skills to the Grid Forecasting team and help illuminate the path towards a cleaner energy future. Can't wait to dive in and start predicting power moves with this brilliant and lovely crew!” Filip Jatelnicki, Machine Learning Engineer at Electricity Maps Welcome to the team, Filip!

Today marks a historic milestone for the #UK and #GB as its electricity production goes coal-free, joining other European countries in the shift toward sustainable energy. Explore this significant achievement and track the progress of global power grids in real-time with our app: https://lnkd.in/dA3vpGzz #Sustainability #CleanEnergy #Renewables

Our app and API now use updated 2023 emission factors for Europe 🇪🇺 We have been revamping our calculations and used the latest available datasets to create new emission factors using ENTSO-E and EU-ETS data for 2023. Thanks to the help of contributors, we are now able to use the verified emissions for 286 thermal power plants across Europe to calculate a more precise value. The methodology, the code used for making calculations and a detailed description of changes per country is all available here: https://lnkd.in/gbUkrf5H

👏 We’re excited to announce that Olivier Corradi and Íngrid Munné Collado recently joined Chris Adams from the Green Software Foundation on a podcast episode! 🎙️ In this conversation, they delved into Electricity Maps' mission to enable a data-driven decarbonization of electricity, covering essential topics like who can benefit from our products and how we transform raw data into actionable carbon intensity insights. They also explored how our forecasts enable flexible consumption, empowering users to make informed choices. A big thank you to Chris for the engaging discussion! Tune in on Spotify to learn more about how we’re driving the transition to a more sustainable energy future. 🎧👇🏽

🔍 Data insights: A new record for wind and solar in Europe! Renewable energy generation just broke a new record in Europe with wind and solar generation exceeding electricity production from fossil fuels in the last 12 months. ☀️💨 At the end of June 2024, solar and wind generation reached 825 TWh over the last 12 months across Europe, just above all electricity production from fossil fuels over the same period. This marks a new and important milestone in the decarbonization of European grids. While the gap between fossil fuels and renewable energy generation remained constant from 2020 to 2022, it started decreasing significantly during 2023 following the demand destruction provoked by the energy crisis and the surge of gas prices. Read our Electricity Mapped Europe 2023 blog post to learn more about this: https://lnkd.in/dp67CWvw Despite a small rebound at the end of 2023, demand reduction continued in 2024 and led to this remarkable record. 🍃 The journey is however still long before Europe reaches grid decarbonization. Electricity demand will likely increase again in the coming years with the electrification of end-uses. Electrifying energy usage while not ramping up fossil fuel generation will be a major challenge for Europe. ❄️ European grids are also still dependent on fossil fuels to cover increases in electricity demand caused by heating needs, and the coming winter season might once again highlight it.
