Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Hell is freezing over. But it is a good thing, and a very positive signal from Berlin. I wrote many times how EU's own "renewable target" is disfunctinal. Countries like 🇲🇫 would be obligated to build new gas+renewables to meet the target, increasing CO2 emissions. Crazy. 1/n 140

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 02/09/2026ZNPP was stolen. Russia is actively busy trying to put it back online. (And I hope they will fail at it as it should return to Ukraine) That is because an NPP is a valuable asset. www.ukrainianworldcongress.org/isw-russia-n...ukrainianworldcongress.orgISW: Russia nears restart of Europe’s largest nuclear plantRussia is reportedly close to restarting the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), Europe’s largest nuclear plant. 010

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 31/07/2026I think the data speaks for itself. Also PL-UA link is only 400 kV. Ukraine grid is standing on Ukrainian nuclear reactors, not import which is onlly supporting it. 000
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 31/07/2026ZNPP was first and foremost stolen. Not destroyed, stolen.

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Antinuclear voices are raising alarm each time there is anything happening anywhere near an NPP. But facts are simple: Ukrainian NPPs are the ONLY power plants NOT attcked by Russia. If it wasn't for nuclear power, Ukraine would alread have had blackouts and be without power in winter. 120
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 19/07/2026This was the idea behind Superphoenix reactor in France, but a leader of Swiss Greens decided he should shot an RPG rocket at the building site.

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Reprocessing of fuel is the best example of zero waste circular economy. I think we should all strive to close the nuclear cycle and burn even the nasty waste in fast reactors, and breed new fuel in breeder reactors instead of extracting all the fuel from the environment. 130
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 26/06/2026True, the weight is not very important. It is done once, even if you need go replace them after 15 years, you have recycling. But even if the cost is two orders of magnitude smaller (very unlikely) the price of electricity during flaute would have to be astronomical to make this economically viable 000
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 26/06/20265/n Germans will subsidise fossil fuel infrastructure to keep lights on. In fact they already do that. Germany does not have a credible scenario to reach net zero. It only cares about expanding renewables, and getting rid of low carbon nuclear - even if it means subsidising fossil natural gas. 010
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 26/06/20264/n BOTH duration of such events and their rarity. Nobody will invest billions into storage used few times a year. There is mantra that coal and gas are "not economic anymore". Guess what, when your coal power plant keeps your grid running NOBODY CARES. 210
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 26/06/20263/n This kind of problem can't be solved with demand response, V2G or batteries. And it makes fossil fuels indispensable in future German grid.

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 26/06/20262/n But what antinuclear pundits avoid this way, is a discussion about a complete collapse of wind energy during "heitzflaute" (new term). Coal&gas keep German grid humming, with strong imports (also from uclear France). Surplus PV at noon is even pushed to Poland which curtails its PV too already 120
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 26/06/20261/n You've probably heard already about (some) French reactors coasting down due to not wanting to overheat rivers. Antinuclear voices love to amplify that event every year, despite the fact that it is a temporary measure and only affects 5% of French capacity, with exports still going strong. 132

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 28/04/2026If this was financially viable, grid operators would be first to implement it. Much faster than end users (as is happening in some rich in solar energy countries) In Germany or Poland arbitrage is still a very poor business case for home batteries.

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Yes, this a typical green neoliberal approach that I do not subscribe to. Scarcity pricing is a bad mechanism for long term, strategic decisions that need to keep the grid stable and requier years of planning befor decisions are realized and needed. Markets are tools, not the goal in itself. 100
Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Significant overbuild will destroy projects bankability unless we abandon market mechanism and just continously fund them when they overproduce but consumption is limited.

Adam Blazowski @adamblazowski.bsky.social · 22/03/2026You are compleetly oblivious of the exustence of distribution charges which actually have a much higer impact on the final electricity price. This is why LCOE is useless in quest to design affordable low carbon grid. 010
