- 4Renewables hit record 80% of demand on Australia's power grid●"Solar and wind generation meet record 80% of power demand on Australia’s national grid" # Australia # Energy # Renewabl
Solar and wind generation met a record 80% of electricity demand on Australia's national grid, a new high for the country's renewable energy transition. The milestone highlights how quickly rooftop solar and large-scale wind farms are displacing coal-fired power in Australia. Commentators are citing it as evidence that renewables can carry a large share of a major national grid, though questions remain about storage and reliability as coal plants retire.
- 5Old EV batteries seen as key to storing Europe's renewable energy▼‘A gold mine’: How old EV batteries could help prevent Europe from wasting solar and wind energy
Retired electric vehicle batteries could be given a second life as large-scale storage units, helping Europe keep the surplus solar and wind power it currently wastes when generation exceeds demand. The approach is being described as a valuable resource for the continent's energy transition, turning battery waste into grid assets that can store clean electricity for later use.
- 6Nor'easter batters Northeast coastal communities●Nor'easter wallops Northeast coastal communities https://www.npr.org/2026/09/28/nx-s1-5982738/noreaster-wallops-northeas

Communities are assessing damage as crews work to restore electricity, with the storm's strong winds and heavy rain disrupting travel and daily life across the Northeast.
- 9Solar, Wind, Battery Storage And Politics Remain Entangled●Solar, Wind, Battery Storage, And Politics — It’s Complicated
Renewable energy expansion is proving far more complicated than its technology suggests, with solar, wind and battery storage all caught up in political battles. Commentators are weighing how permitting rules, subsidies, grid policy and partisan divides shape how quickly clean power can scale. The discussion underscores that the main obstacles to the energy transition may be political rather than technical.
- 10Wind-up elastic robot jumps endlessly when fed infrared light●Wind-up elastic robot jumps forever when fed infrared light
Researchers have developed an elastic, wind-up robot capable of jumping continuously when supplied with infrared light, which acts as its power source. The robot converts light energy into elastic movement, allowing sustained hopping without batteries or an external motor. The development is drawing attention as a possible step toward untethered, self-powered soft robotics.
