You can't run a modern economy off windmills. Germany is finding that out the hard way. So is California. Neither can keep the lights on.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

Air Canada says short-haul future includes electric planes
The head of Air Canada says the carrier will be able to offer zero-emission electric flights to customers in Canada as soon as 2028.
The airline said Thursday it will purchase 30 ES-30 electric-hybrid aircraft for an undisclosed amount. The planes, which are being developed by Sweden-based Heart Aerospace AB, are “much more cost efficient” and could help the airline expand in regional markets, Chief Executive Officer Michael Rousseau said during remarks at the US Chamber of Commerce Global Aerospace Summit in Washington.
United Airlines and Mesa Air Group have previously ordered 200 electric planes with an option for 100 more.
The lithium-ion battery-powered aircraft is expected to enter service in 2028. It will be able to carry 30 passengers for 200 kilometers (124 miles) in all-electric mode. Two turbo fuel generators could extend that range to 400 kilometers, Air Canada said in a statement. Charging time for the planes will be 30 to 50 minutes.
Heart Aerospace, backed by Bill Gates’ Breakthrough Energy Ventures LLC, uses the reserve-hybrid system “to secure reserve energy requirements without cannibalizing battery range,” according to its website. The fuel generators could be powered by low-carbon biofuel produced from feedstocks such as corn.
Anastacia Davies, head of renewable fuels for BloombergNEF, said sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF, is “incredibly valuable as a solution because it’s so easy.”
“Molecularly, it’s almost identical to normal jet fuel,” Davies said. Global demand for SAF should go from just 100 million gallons this year to 3.5 billion gallons in 2028, but the supply might not be at the airports that airlines want, Davies said in an interview.
Air Canada has also acquired a US$5 million equity stake in Heart Aerospace as part of its broader strategy to invest US$50 million in new technologies. The company has pledged to reach net-zero emissions by 2050.
“We’ve taken down emissions 43 per cent over the last 27 years, primarily by spending US$12 billion on much more efficient aircrafts,” Rousseau said, but more needs to be done to meet the 2050 target. While expensive, carbon credits will help in the short term and the company is working hard on sustainable fuel. “But the third leg is airplane technology,” he said.
Air Canada is still running at about 80 per cent of pre-pandemic levels, but business traffic has been coming back since Labor Day, Rousseau said.
... electric commercial airplanes will soon be a real thing.Comment

Any decline in fuel prices is the direct result in the decline in demand. The decline in demand is due to rising inflation forcing people to decide whether they want to drive or eat.Comment
