In a region known for long, dark winter nights, Polar Night Energy is building a system in the city of Tampere that can heat buildings with stored solar energy — all day, all night, and all winter long. These initiatives have largely focused on renewable electric power generation, distribution, and storage. Eronen says, laughing.

The switch from coal to natural gas and renewables in the electric power sector accounts for the majority of the progress the US has made in reducing emissions over the past decade. Natural gas generation made up much of the gap last year, as it has consistently in recent years, due to extremely cheap gas prices. Coal-driven decline.

There is no end of gushing about China’s cheap solar panels—but when was the last time you saw a paean to hydroelectricity? Instead, that pure status is now reserved above all for wind and solar. The manufacture of solar panels involves the environmental costs from mining, waste disposal, and carbon emissions.
