Beyond Fossil Fuels
@beyondfossilfuels
Gas is Europe’s most critical vulnerability, and countries that rely on it for electricity production, like 🇮🇹, 🇬🇷, or 🇮🇪, could see a big increase in bills. Meanwhile, countries using more renewable energy, like 🇪🇸 & 🇵🇹 are more resilient against the price shocks. Read more @eurcorrespond.bsky.social 👇

Big Tech frames AI as a climate solution. But a new report takes off the rose-tinted smart glasses and shows a harsher reality: plenty of evidence that power-hungry generative AI is harming our planet, and little solid proof it can fight climate change. 📄 beyondfossilfuels.org/2026/02/17/t...

"From soaring prices at gas stations to flight cancellations over jet fuel shortages, we're learning the hard way – again – that dependence on fossil fuel imports has a price." 👏 Read more in @theeuropeancorreua.bsky.social 📖 👀 europeancorrespondent.com/en/r/the-ene...
Ever been to a public AGM? This is your chance! Yesterday we went to Siemens Energy’s first-ever public AGM to ask them directly how they plan to clean up their fossil gas business. Come with us and see how it went. 🎥👇 beyondfossilfuels.org/2026/02/26/s...
We joined thousands in 🇩🇪 Hamm to oppose RWE's new gas plant in the first mass anti-gas plant protest in Europe! Why should public money fund more fossil fuel dependence when renewables and clean flexibility are ready to deliver? Germany can't lead us down a gas dead end.
Do you remember 2016? We do. Pokémon Go, Beyonce’s Lemonade, Snapchat. More importantly, since 2016: 💪 25 🇪🇺 countries have announced coal phaseouts❗ 💪 61% of coal plants across the continent have shut down❗ Geopolitical tensions might be high, but it's important to remember how far we've come.
While Siemens Energy is celebrating record revenues in its first ever public AGM and continuing to promote its ‘green’ credentials, we can't forget that it's also the 2nd largest global supplier of gas turbines for gas-fired plants under development around the world. So we came by to protest.
TotalEnergies and EPH's joint venture in the name of “flexgen” for 🇪🇺 is pure spin. Most of the gas fleet relies on CCGT plants built for baseload power, a poor choice when clean alternatives like batteries and storage exist to support renewables & grid flexibility. www.euronews.com/2026/05/20/m...
PSA: Clean flexibility can cut Europe’s gas dependence and save up to €300bn/year by 2030. Batteries, heat pumps, EV smart charging & demand response can keep the lights on without fossil gas. Our new report is out now 👉 beyondfossilfuels.org/2026/02/23/c...

Football won in the end. Thank fuck for that. Arse tried to shithouse their way to the biggest domestic trophy in Europe too. And the missed penalty couldn't have happened to a more deserving player. Congrats to PSG... #LFC
