The Iran war is turbocharging global electrification. But experts say the global grid needs to roughly double in size, as infrastructure bottlenecks prevent a clean energy revolution.

    Ironic isn’t it?

    What is also Ironic to me is that Israel’s goal was to diminish Iran’s nuclear capabilities, but that due to the war more countries are now looking to accelerate towards electrification and renewables leave gaps in the system (dunkelflaute) which can cause blackouts, more countries are looking to nuclear energy for grid stability.
