Professor of Social and Public Policy in Jyväskylä, Finland. I research labour relations, migration, European Union, fair energy transition. I used to be an American but not so much these days. I'm more of a Finn these days. Identity is a complex thing

New study finds most electricity (~90%; residual needs provided by fuels) can be provided by renewables & storage as the renewable energy system is built out. As technology is deployed, costs will continue to drop due to enhanced learning curves. Which world should we build? 🧪🔌💡☀️💨💧🔋
