Beyond the marketplaces that already exist? If it's unique and sellable it's patentable. Patents aren't just for a new gadget, you can patent a processes. If you are talking about a process that isn't patentable because it's already in the public market then you can't sell it unless you can execute it better than anyone else; and that is selling a service not an idea.
If you are talking about starting a new marketplace to sell ideas it hasn't worked yet but go for it. | r/innovation | comment | r/Innovation | 2024-01-27 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4Tk90dUFOQzM5TTdQVDc0bTBjOWZ5QW90bzgwVDkyZ29Ua0d0cmNJSVhJcFpnOVdOcFJlNUs4Vkp4VFpZcXhoTGdOM2I3UWx1OXR4ZS1mRVh4SFNWT2c9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVY2hNQ0M2MG1WQUd2MUlOdzlTdk4xbFhKc1c3b2liVzJ3ak5KTUJEbUhiOC1lbVBtUVNMOERPZ0o5bU13Z2ZYdFJRRE50WEVRclJfRUhWS01hSzlrZVhmdm5uNGlzZml3QWtsd0xxYmFESHkyaE11c0NZandOcnowTFRIdDB5QUwtRUpMTzhKVEhfek84UFBwV0o4OFlnXzlKVUE0VDVla1UtSVpBX3lCck5FUXpLdTNybjJwcHB4Qk5YOWl5Nkhi |

Yep, more minor shit. See, the problem with not having an editor is that sometimes things just slip through the cracks.
Yesterday I mentioned that Eagle Pass was a national park, inadvertently implying that it was some mountainous redoubt. It is not. Eagle Pass is the name of the town, and Shelby Park is a city park within said town. [We’re talking this thing.](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Shelby+Park/@28.7102845,-100.5122827,15.5z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x865f8dfc76090fc5:0x25d2493414af76d5!8m2!3d28.7079581!4d-100.5091596!16s%2Fg%2F11tn5jd5cn!5m1!1e4?entry=ttu) Yes, this is a city park, a place where most civilized nations keep their ducks, and barbed wire across our side of the shore will mostly impact said ducks as anyone with sense will be taking the two very conveniently placed bridges a klick-or-so to the south. Unless that has barbed wire across it, too. And men with guns. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, that's probably exactly what's happening.
[Not that this clusterfuck isn’t a super big deal, mind you.](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/texas-attorney-general-ken-paxton-refuses-federal-agents-access-shelby-park-eagle-pass-border/#:~:text=Eagle%20Pass%2C%20Texas%20%E2%80%94%20Texas',razor%20wire%2C%20fencing%20and%20soldiers.) It just changes the dynamic a bit.

>The Russian information space continued to promote narratives that attempt to manipulate domestic US political events to sow domestic instability in the US and interfere with US policy debates about further US military assistance to Ukraine.
Yep. Feeling that right now!
Give me a chance, God. Please give me a chance to kick Putin in the balls. A brief window in my future, I care not how or why I am in such a moment in time, but if you give me the opportunity to nail that piece of shit in the testicles, I will do a good deed. I will make my dog stop pissing on my neighbor’s lawn. Sure, it doesn’t sound like much, but they just put so much effort into it, and there is just this one spot...that she has tarnished. It's her favorite.
Amen.
PS: Steel toed boots. I don’t need them, but I will buy them. Just give me the word. The Good Word. That’s all I’m asking. I won’t even keep the receipt. It will be a legitimate purchase. And if you’re feeling it, maybe like a six-month heads up? I wanna hit the gym, y’know? Do some leg days.
>A prominent Kremlin-affiliated milblogger attempted to undermine the legitimacy of upcoming US elections.[72] ISW continues to assess that these claims are very likely part of a deliberate Russian information campaign.
I don’t think it’s going to work. Trump’s in full tantrum mode, every indicator is flashing red for the GOP, and Putin’s got some problems back home he should probably focus on instead (more on that later). The information space might feel grim, but I think underneath it all we’re coming together. We saw [protests in Germany against fascism](https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/germany-sees-waves-of-protests-against-rise-of-far-right-extremism/article67780364.ece), and people swarming the streets in Slovakia to stand against their far-right government.
[Like look at this thing.](https://apnews.com/article/slovakia-penal-code-protests-robert-fico-7fbd3c9cfb4f97298f00a0fca01c3e15) Those people fill the streets.
No, I think the Kremlin’s attempts to stir shit up is going to fall on very deaf ears this election cycle. I think we’re about to see a surprising coalescence of support around Nikki Haley. There are terrifying parallels between Putin and Trump, and I think many moderate, run of the mill conservatives want someone...you know, conservative. Not a second bite of a shit-filled twinkie.
>Russian authorities are likely blocking communications in the Sakha Republic for the fourth consecutive day following January 24 protests in support of a Russian citizen allegedly murdered by a naturalized Russian citizen from Tajikistan.
Four days now of straight protests despite certainly stiff resistance--and, after four days, an escalating response. <--- that’s the key. It means the situation is deteriorating. And Putin didn’t institute a blackout for the Bashkortostan Riots. Whatever is happening in [Sakha](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sakha_Republic) is for serious.
Obviously, thanks to the Kremlin, we can’t know what’s happening in the far depths of Siberia, but we can speculate. I have looked into the bones and do you know what I saw? Godzilla. He has risen from the deep. This is not a riot, this is nature punishing man for his hubris.
>UK outlet the Telegraph reported on January 26, citing an unnamed Western official, that Russia is spending roughly 40 percent of its GDP on the war in Ukraine, more than Russian national spending on health and education.
[Wait...that isn’t that coincidentally the exact same number the Duma’s budget last year?](https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-doubles-2023-defence-spending-plan-war-costs-soar-document-2023-08-04/) Trippy there’s that overlap.
Still, 40% GDP on the war doesn’t leave much for the common person. Not after the oligarchs get their share. It’s no wonder there’s riots popping up all over the place. The question I guess now is...where does Putin go from here? How does he bring more to bear? There ain't much gas left in the tank.

>An Iranian-backed militia conducted a one-way drone attack targeting US forces in northeastern Jordan on January 28, killing three American service members and wounding another 25.[1] This attack is part of the ongoing Iranian-led campaign to expel US forces from the Middle East.

>Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Director Sergei Naryshkin reiterated that the Kremlin is not interested in any settlements short of the complete destruction and eradication of the Ukrainian state, likely in an ongoing effort to justify the long-term and costly Russian war effort to domestic audiences.
Folks, I don’t want to alarm anyone, but I think we need to recognize that we are drifting perilously close to a Third World War. Between the election meddling, random acts of clandestine sabotage, and ever-escalating threats, we need to put aside our disbelief and recognize that we are under attack.
We are experiencing the slow onset of war. Bit by bit, our options shrink. Putin is stealing our peace, and he’s getting away with it because we are too afraid to fight. I want the MAGA rat-fuckers in the House to recognize that three Americans died today because their selfish cowardice. If we had stood our ground earlier, those people might still be alive.
If you haven’t already, [dive into Maus.](https://archive.org/details/maus-a-survivors-tale-my-father-bleeds-history-by-art-spiegelman/mode/2up) It’s the most important comic book you will ever read.
>The Kremlin also continues to frame and justify a long-term Russian war effort as part of an existential geopolitical confrontation with the West and Nazism.
Maus is unique in that it doesn’t deal with the German’s perspective, not one bit. It’s not the Americans, nor the French, nor the British. It follows a Pole—specifically a Jewish one. The central theme is one of relentless partitioning. Pieces are sliced off: a gold watch for a fancy paper, a neighbor for a loaf of bread, grandparents for one more month in the ghetto. The Nazis took everything bit by bit. It’s a hard novel to read, but critical in understanding the threat we face.
>Kremlin officials and mouthpieces continue to set information conditions to destabilize Moldova, likely as part of efforts to prevent Moldova’s integration into the EU and the West among other objectives.
Yeah, why not? Just keep slicin, Putin. Fuckin’ see where it gets you.
What I don’t understand is why he’s choosing to do this now. Moldova is all the way on the other side of Ukraine, and instigating more tension is the opposite of what he should be doing. I thought the end game was to wait until the West lost interest? What happened to that plan?
>The Kremlin will likely use the withdrawals of Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to continue efforts to expand Russian influence in Francophone Africa.
Huh...It seems like a sizeable portion of Central Africa is pulling away from France and drifting towards the Kremlin. Most of these "countries” are run by warlords masquerading as presidents, so I doubt they’re manifesting the will of the People with these decisions.
>Unnamed Indian government sources stated that India wants to distance itself from Russia, its largest arms supplier, because the war in Ukraine has limited Russia’s ability to provide India with munitions.
Oh! Drama!
India has long had a love affair with Russian military equipment. The crap’s cheap, rugged, and gets the job done. Need a tank? Boom. T-72. Truck? Here’s a Ural. SAM cause American sky things are expensive? A slightly used S-300, or better yet, [an as-yet-to-be-delivered S-400!](https://www.reuters.com/world/india/russia-cannot-meet-arms-delivery-commitments-because-war-indian-air-force-says-2023-03-23/)
That S-400 is actually a bit of a sticking point, as many of the high-end systems India’s been ordering from Russia are slow to arrive. Naturally India’s getting a little heated; first, because they likely paid for it already, and second because the world seems to be very rapidly spiraling into chaos.
Weeeeeee.
Of course, to India I would like to remind them that they were shopping at the arms-dealer equivalent of a Dollar General. It is not worth it to go complaining to the manager, because even if you win, you’re still arguing over coupons in a Dollar General.
>Russian forces recently advanced near Kreminna and Avdiivka amid continued positional fighting throughout the theater.
Rumor has it that Russia will soon attempt a rotation in Kherson Oblast. That would be remarkable as it would be the first time throughout the entirety of the war that the Kremlin has tried something so...gracious. Good on them.
I’m willing to be halfway through the rotation will be point at which they are the most vulnerable, as existing troops will be eager to get out, and incoming troops will be disoriented. Just saying.

This is what the government of Israel wants. I do not believe Fattah el-Sisi can survive such a move even if he were interested and he has previously rejected such a move \[by U.S. and few others\].

Welcome to the [Peanut Gallery](https://www.nuttyspectacle.com/)! And we're just going to ignore the fact that I fucked up on the date yesterday.
Please remember that I know nothing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[United States:](https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/iran-update-january-29-2024)**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>The Iranian regime falsely claimed that Iran had no role in the January 28 one-way drone attack that killed three US servicemembers in northeastern Jordan.
I kept my comments yesterday minimal because the information was still pouring in. It’s been about a day and now we know a lot more.
First, we figured out how Iran pulled off their little trick, and I gots to give ‘em credit, it was damn clever. Iran’s proxies shadowed an American drone on its way back to base, meaning our SAM systems detected one target instead of two. Now that we know how they did it, however, we can make certain we never fall for the same gimmick twice. That’ll be up to the US DoD to figure out.
Second, Western media actually did its fucking job and reported Iran as the responsible party, which is important because social media today was disgusting. The bots, the justifications, the excuses, the what-aboutisms--they were all over the place and the sight made me sick. When everything’s stabilized and makes sense again, we need to come together as a species and hash out some rules regarding information war. Democracy can’t exist in this environment.
And third, I think [Beau had the best take.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjE6HIExUX0) He’s right in that the solution is decapacitation, but I think he underplays the importance of immediate reprisal. Every second that passes lengthens the distance between the event and our response. The longer that time period stretches, the more tenuous the connection, and it isn’t Iran we need to dissuade; it’s everyone else.
Yeah, eventually the US will slam a missile into some IRGC command center or something, but if it doesn’t happen in the next week or so then what will message will that send to the Houthis? To Hezbollah? To the African juntas? Iran *will* understand, that much is guaranteed, but we also need to make our response unambiguous lest we allow the stupid and brutal to draw the wrong conclusions. It’s not the nation states that I’m concerned about—it's the war lords. The more confident they feel, the more brush fires they’ll start, and the more likely this conflagration will smolder out of control.
Escalate to deescalate. It’s a well-worn doctrine.
In my opinion Biden needs to nut-up and do his fuckin’ job. I don’t want to be in the Middle East either, but unless we want to reexperience the geopolitical shitshow that was the Afghani withdrawal, we need to ensure any future movements happen on *our* terms. That means reminding everyone **now** that the US President is the only one who decides where our military finds itself.
Blow up the Shahed manufacturing facilities. Do it at night to avoid civilians. Announce the attack beforehand—what the fuck is Iran going to do? Stop us? Please.

ISW’s been half-assing their reports lately and it’s pissing me off. How am I supposed to keep people interested in the Russo-Ukraine War if they give me nothing to work with? Stingy bastards.
>The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense (MoD) denied rumors about the purported resignation or dismissal of Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief General Valerii Zaluzhnyi on January 29.
This is it, huh? This is my headline? A rumor wrapped in a Kremlin psy-op? I need another drink.
To begin, Ukraine says this whole story is bullshit, and considering the story hinges upon a decision by Ukraine, I’m inclined to believe them. Removing Zaluzhnyi would mean a drastic change in Ukraine’s plan for the future of the war, which does not seem at all likely. Zaluzhnyi is a defensive minded general and any replacement would mean installation of one who’s suicidally aggressive, which isn’t what this war demands. It’d be like installing Colonel Custer as overall entente command halfway through World War One.
We have this rumor thanks to a Ukrainian People’s Deputy [Oleksii Honcharenko,](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oleksiy_Goncharenko) essentially a mid-tier politician. Ukraine has about 450 of them, and when you’ve got 450 of anything, one or two of that number is bound to broken or bonkers. And, quite frankly, I don’t see why Honcharenko would know this information. He seems primarily wrapped up in immigration. Nothing in his Wikipedia screams “Defense Circles!”
Now the Kremlin is amplifying this rumor because for months now they’ve attempted to sow discord between Zelenskyy and Zaluzhnyi. This story plays right into their little gimmick. “Oh! Secret firing! But why?!!!” That’s what they want everyone to be asking themselves. The Kremlin wants as little attention paid to their problems as possible (I see that information blackout, mother fuckers.)
Until Kyiv announces something officially, it’s not real.
>Russia may be retooling aspects of its air defense umbrella in deep rear areas amid continued Ukrainian drone strikes within Russia.
How deep are we talking here? The Kremlin released footage of a successful downing of a Ukrainian drone today on its way to one of their refineries. They made a big hullabaloo about it, which...great? Just as planned? Because if the Kremlin has covered their fossil fuel refineries in AA, then that means they’re going to have a hard time keeping SAM coverage coherent throughout Ukraine. Exertion of strength in one place always means weakness somewhere else.
>Russia appears to be fueling and seizing on neo-imperialist and nationalist sentiments in Europe in order to drive wedges between Ukraine and its western neighbors.
That’s where all these weird partitioning stories that keep popping up stem from. Romania apparently wants Odessa or something, and Hungary gets West Ukraine—it’s essentially Putin promising portions of Ukraine to nationalists to encourage their buy-in and support. And considering the prerequisite to become a neonationalist is a stunted sense of empathy, these people are slobbering all over Putin’s offer.
Putin’s making a mistake, though. The scarier he makes himself, the closer we draw together. The Free World isn’t like the Russian people, we aren’t beaten down and hopeless...because we know we can do better. The West holds itself to an impossible standard, not because we think we can obtain it, but because we know we must try. The conversations we have now, on this website, are only unique in medium. The substance? I guarantee that’s unchanged.
They say history repeats, and I’d say I agree. Every generation there is a tyrant. Every generation there are those who would rather cower and hide, deny and exploit. And every generation we must remind ourselves why we cherish Liberty, lest we forget her value.
>Russian and Ukrainian sources continued to disagree over the status of Tabaivka (southeast of Kupyansk) on January 29. The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) claimed that elements of the Russian Western Grouping of Forces captured Tabaivka, and many Russian milbloggers amplified this claim.[25] ISW has not yet observed visual confirmation of the purported Russian capture of Tabaivka,
The great Kupyansk Offensive is apparently reduced to playing tug-of-war over a [small settlement along a highway.](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Tabaivka,+Kharkiv+Oblast,+Ukraine,+63742/@49.4946659,37.6277084,10z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x4120e72c1cb17f53:0x96e7baddae06a103!8m2!3d49.602383!4d37.8768501!16s%2Fg%2F11b60vv78s?entry=ttu) Maybe Russia takes it. Woopie. Then there’s another behind that, and another behind that, and another behind that...all the way to Kyiv.
Other than that, everything’s quiet...relatively speaking.

Jim Geraghty with National Review stated in an article that it is impossible for Haley to win, but that it could still be advantageous for her to remain in the race. Geraghty pointed out that remaining in the race might make Trump dislike her and feel vengeful, but it could also give her serious political leverage with which to influence his campaign and possible presidency.

Welcome to the [Peanut Gallery](https://www.nuttyspectacle.com/)! Your daily dose of unfounded speculation.
Please remember that I know nothing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[United States:](https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/iran-update-january-30-2024)**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Iran and Iranian-backed Iraqi militia Kataib Hezbollah are conducting an information operation to distance Iran from the January 28 one-way drone attack that killed three US service members in northeastern Jordan.
**Run.**
The CIA didn’t forget how to topple governments, by the way. We just stopped doing it because it’s a terrible idea. In most cases.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[Ukraine:](https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-january-30-2024)**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>The anticipated Russian 2024 winter-spring offensive effort is underway in the Kharkiv-Luhansk Oblast border area.
Oh, are we calling it now? This happening? Okay.
I mean sure, ISW, it’s been going for a few days, but I guess we can make it official. Apparently, this is a “for realsies” push. Huzzah! [Witness the confetti.](https://imgur.com/a/5AWDCvP)
The thing is, though, I’m not seeing huge gains. The front remains stagnant, just as stagnant as it was (and is) in Avdiivka. In launching...whatever this is, Putin’s spending what’s left in the treasury. There’s nowhere else to escalate from here, resource wise. 40% of GDP: [that’s the number I saw floating around.](https://www.kyivpost.com/post/27268#:~:text=UK%20outlet%20the%20Telegraph%20reported,with%20occupied%20areas%20of%20Ukraine.) Almost half.
And yet still payin’ out pensions, eh, Putin? “Oh, I bribe the Muscovites to stay passive and asleep. This is great! Better start a war.” Fuckin’ dumbass.
Anyway, Russia is pressing hard into Kupyansk, and, in some places, making marginal gains. Like we’re talking one-or-two hamlets. It’s adorable, considering the weight Putin’s attempting to bring to bear.
ISW intends to bring us an extended analysis of the RF offensive thus far shortly. I'll cover it when it pops up.
>Ukrainian officials continued to deny rumors about the purported dismissal of Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief General Valerii Zaluzhnyi.
The dismissal rumor was bullshit yesterday and it’s still bullshit today.
>Russian forces appear to be continuing to violate the Chemical Weapons Convention to which Russia is signatory.
This one actually signifies a significant escalation.
Like, sure the Kremlin’s been dropping tear gas on Krynky for months now, and the West hasn’t said a thing. Not a peep. Now the Kremlin has escalated to this wack-ass shit,
>Chloropicrin is primarily used as a soil fumigant that can be fatal when inhaled, and it is sometimes classified as a riot control agent (RCA) due to its harmful and irritant effects.[9] The CWC prohibits the use of RCAs in warfare.
This stuff’s nasty, essentially extra-strength bugspray and it’ll kill you if you breathe it for long enough. It was used extensively in World War One, which is how you know it's good. Ain't no cruelty like old-timey cruelty.
Kremlin’s dropping this shit from Belgorod to Zaporizhya, five times in the last couple days. Extensive usage of chemical weapons would be...beyond barbaric, and this isn't even close to the worst the Kremlin's got in its stockpile.
They should feel ashamed of themselves. We left this chapter behind. Every country signed the Chemical Weapons Convention for a damn reason—[even Hitler didn’t use these things (on soldiers).](https://www.history.com/news/the-nazis-developed-sarin-gas-but-hitler-was-afraid-to-use-it) And it's easy to see why he was so terrified, as [Hitler lost a testicle in the First World War](https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN0U20KI/). Such a trauma... it changes a man. The thought of chemical weapons likely triggered all sorts of PTSD flashbacks.
>Senior Russian officials may be intensifying their attempts to frame and justify Russia’s long term war effort in Ukraine as an existential geopolitical confrontation with the West by explicitly equating the US with the Nazis.
*Yawn*.
>Russian opposition sources suggested that widespread internet outages in Russia on January 30 may be the result of Russian efforts to establish the “sovereign internet” system.
The Kremlin didn’t just decide to flick the internet off on a whim. They changed their DNS information, meaning the downtime was likely how long it took for the change to populate.
Either way, this is probably the most significant story in the ISW’s entire article, because it means the Russian internet now flows through a Kremlin controlled DNS server. Putin looked at the modem, he looked at the firewall, and spread his cheeks wide to human centipede himself between the two. Wonderful.
This will grant the Kremlin absolute control over public discourse. The power behind this sort of thing cannot be overstated. By deciding who is allowed to connect to “the internet” Putin is deciding whether someone exists. Entire regions can find themselves cutoff from the outside world with a keystroke. VPNs become useless, as all outside communication must route through the Kremlin’s DNS server. They catch dissidents before they even get out the door. With this one change, the Kremlin has seized absolute control over Russian communications.
You guys remember all those videos of Muscovites complaining about their burst pipes? Yeah, that sort of thing is about to become super uncommon—not because it isn’t happening, rather we just won’t hear about it.
>The Kremlin has been intensifying efforts to consolidate control over the Russian information space in advance of the March 2024 Russian presidential election, and these efforts support the development of the “sovereign internet” system.
Well he’s got it now. This Presidential election is going to go smoothly whether it wants to or not, apparently.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Russian authorities are planning to increase the deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia in 2024. Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) Council Deputy Alla Barkhatnova stated on January 30 that occupation authorities in Kherson Oblast are working to increase the number of children who go on “trips” to “health and recreation” camps in Russia in 2024.[85] Barkhatnova noted that several such programs took place in 2023 and that Ukrainian children underwent ”social and psychological adaptation” in various camps, including in Litvonovo, Moscow Oblast, and in Krasnoyarsk, Krasnoyarsk Krai.

Welcome to the [Peanut Gallery](https://www.nuttyspectacle.com/)! Today will be slightly abridged as my roommate has a new dog and I want to go pet it.
Please remember that I know nothing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**[Correction:](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheNuttySpectacle/comments/1afbh0k/the_peanut_gallery_january_30_2024/ko92378/)**

>That's not how DNS works. Traffic doesn't route through a DNS server. It's only used for domain lookups. When sites are black holed via DNS it is far easier to bypass than if they were blocked with a firewall. You don't even need a VPN. All you have to do is point your system to a different DNS server, and there are plenty of free ones out there.
This one’s more of some personal accountability. Yesterday I mentioned Putin had probably begun to enforce the Kremlin as Russia’s defacto DNS provider, hence the shutdown. My phrasing grossly oversimplified the process to the point of being functionally incorrect. I use that word ‘functionally’ because I believe the ‘form’ is the same, that being Putin’s absolute control over the Russian people’s communications.
/u/Rechlin raised [several important points](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheNuttySpectacle/comments/1afbh0k/the_peanut_gallery_january_30_2024/ko92378/) and challenged me on several leaps I hadn’t realized I’d made. For their contribution in fact checking my ass, I award them the ‘Lone Star White Hat’ flair. May they wear it with pride.

**[Ukraine:](https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-january-31-2024)**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Ukrainian forces struck Russian targets in the vicinity of Belbek airfield in occupied Sevastopol, Crimea on January 31.
Hahahahaha, oh Lord. Yeah, so, at this rate I don’t think Russia’s going to have much of an air force come spring. No damage has been confirmed, but I’ve seen rumors that Ukraine nabbed upwards of three SU-34s in this attack. It’s a smack upside the head, that’s for certain. And it follows in Ukraine’s overarching effort to “pave the way” for the F-16s. However that whole thing shakes out.
Russia claimed Ukraine fired off upwards of twenty missiles. They also claimed they were ‘storm shadow’ whatever the fuck that means. Storm shadows are expensive, and I doubt Ukraine would fire off twenty of the things for three jets. Sure, it’s 1 : 3 on cost, but that’s still not a favorable exchange in Ukraine’s favor. Not when one of those missiles could just as easily pull of a 1 : ‘A LOT’ on
So either the Kremlin is lying about the number (maybe), or the Kremlin is lying about the weapon (likely). And if it wasn’t Storm Shadows, and if it wasn’t drones, then what the fuck was it? Honestly it could be anything. [Just fucking anything.](https://www.newsweek.com/nato-ally-responds-rumors-secret-f16-combat-mission-ukraine-russia-romania-1865153)
>Ukrainian and Russian forces conducted a prisoner-of-war (POW) exchange on January 31, exchanging 195 Russian POWs for 207 Ukrainian POWs.
This hostage exchange was preplanned, meaning none of the hostages exchanged were on the manifest from the Il-76, so still no resolution on that front.
>The European Union (EU) will reportedly fall short of its promise to provide Ukraine with one million artillery shells by March 1, 2024, as European leaders call on EU member states to intensify deliveries of ammunition to Ukraine.
600k is still pretty good. Could be better, though. That’s why a goal’s a goal. Let’s step it up, yeah?
Especially since,
>A Ukrainian commander operating in the Kupyansk direction stated that Russian forces’ main objective in the area was the capture of Kupyansk-Vuzlovy (immediately east of Kupyansk) and Kupyansk and that the capture of Synkivka would provide the quickest route for Russian forces to advance to these settlements.
This looks to be kicking into high gear. We’re seeing Russian aggression across the entire front, from Kupyansk to Krynky, and in an almost desperate, swarm-like mentality. Looks like Putin’s biting at that ‘West is weak!’ narrative that’s been dangling above our heads these last few weeks. He’s got his mouth around it. Let’s hope its center is a hook.
>Estonian Defense Forces Commander General Martin Herem stated that Russia may be behind recent GPS jamming in the Baltic region.
Russian Federation is apparently testing something and are using Europe’s GPS network as a testbed for their experiments. It’s perhaps the loudest secret project I’ve ever seen developed, but I will admit that it’s a secret project. Also a pain in the ass and technically an act of war. Schultz should give Ukraine a few Taurus missiles as a warning to Russia. That’d be real cool of them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Russian authorities are planning to increase the deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia in 2024. Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) Council Deputy Alla Barkhatnova stated on January 30 that occupation authorities in Kherson Oblast are working to increase the number of children who go on “trips” to “health and recreation” camps in Russia in 2024.[85] Barkhatnova noted that several such programs took place in 2023 and that Ukrainian children underwent ”social and psychological adaptation” in various camps, including in Litvonovo, Moscow Oblast, and in Krasnoyarsk, Krasnoyarsk Krai.

As the title states, I'm looking at a BESS project in CAISO and need to identify any additional sources of potential revenue besides energy arbitrage. The project has an energy only interconnection agreement.
Are there any non-contracted services that the project could participate in, and how can I model/estimate potential revenue? For example, could the project participate in frequency regulation? Any guidance, or direction, will be greatly appreciated! | r/energystorage | post | r/EnergyStorage | 2024-02-01 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4NGh1SVdVSU5QYm5wQy13UGZVdjRmdVRxbEtkUU1rYWF0R3VSaDNpemhoOGZHYWZBcElQSGN2bWc0aXpWaUpCZ3c4eGJUT0NodC1ZRThVQ19vdGcxa3FqOWZkTnFrZ3dQZlVSVEcwS2pqSTA9 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVcGJJODZJZDVna3BfbEV2cS1fSFhKUGNFaEdReWotMVlMUmtlRTJxMmRzdmhlMFVuU2RCbE9ZcEI0NmZUN1ZYS01rY3pwMnpMa2Y0bVBRNUQ1X0xtaVRJZm5lUVZ6OVRUYmo5MUVtZy1qY1JiYjdDaV9PS2RJQmxjSjVyRUlNN3FzRjU4bXJWN3htcFdUYm42WW53Q0VNejBjTUFaRGN1Q3U4bE1TcmZhRjZNUktNRkVyMWl1cWk0OGVfMlBxaWFNNGRWVnJEbl8tb3EwSGJhd3hRaTRuUT09 |

**[Ukraine:](https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-january-31-2024)**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Howdy Folks,
Let’s get to it.
>[Ukrainian forces successfully struck and sunk a Russian Black Sea Fleet (BSF) vessel in the Black Sea near occupied Crimea on the night of January 31 to February 1.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5zGkqAWsWE)
Holy fucking shit where the hell did that come from?!
But it makes sense, right? If South Crimea is strikable, why [here](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ozero+Donuzlav/@45.6086241,32.5696119,8z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x40c04077f8a92471:0x6997fb5b7dfb88e3!8m2!3d45.3583333!4d33.0383333!16s%2Fm%2F0_xc597?entry=ttu) too?
What the fuck was the Kremlin thinking leaving such an expensive piece of military hardware on the west coast of Crimea? Was this supposed to support assaults on Krynky? They have to be insane. With this strike, Ukraine just demonstrated they have the entire western half of the peninsula under fire control. Like sure, they’re probably munition limited, but then it just becomes a question of optimizing target value.
So what did the Kremlin lose? Well, a boat. An expensive boat. It’s forty-man missile corvette, meaning it was one of the things shooting missiles at Ukrainian hospitals. It was also one of the last significant threats towards Black Sea shipping. Its loss will likely bring insurance premiums down for Ukrainian grain exports. Odessa might actually make a profit this year!
Russia says Ukraine shot a dozen Storm Shadows to take the boat down. Crimean air defense claimed they knocked down all of them...? All of them but one, apparently.
>The milblogger claimed that Russian forces downed five missiles near Belbek Air Base in occupied Sevastopol and six missiles over Yana Kapu, Hvardiske, and northwest of Sevastopol and that one missile struck the ground near Belbek Air Base but did not damage it.
Look, I don’t want to tell the Kremlin how to do its job, but why are missiles fired at a boat in a harbor on the northwest overflying [Belbek Air Base?](https://www.google.com/maps/search/Belbek+Air+Base/@44.9545055,33.1662959,9z?entry=ttu)
Striking both the corvette and the air base would be ballsy play, not one I would expect Ukraine to use with its limited Storm Shadow supply. They’ve only got [forty](https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2024/01/17/france-to-give-ukraine-more-cruise-missiles-plans-security-pact/) of these things, and if what the Kremlin is saying is true (it isn’t), then over the last two days Ukraine has launched thirty-two of them. There are...many contradictions in the Kremlin’s story, but if I’m inclined to humor them then I would pay attention to the numbers. Notice they didn’t say drones. The milblogger claimed missiles.
So how the hell is Ukraine firing off twelve storm shadow missile salvos? Jury-rigged Su-34s carry one, max two, at a time, meaning Ukraine would have to field minimum a wing of six to meet the numbers this milblogger is claiming. F-16s don’t carry them, by the way. So that’s out, assuming they’re not some generic-ass air-to-surface missile the Kremlin is confusing for Storm Shadows.
Which leaves [GLSDB](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_Launched_Small_Diameter_Bomb), as /u/Franknarf mentioned [yesterday.](https://www.reddit.com/r/TheNuttySpectacle/comments/1ag3vyp/the_peanut_gallery_january_31_2024/koeki6t/) These puppies are typically fired from a [Himars](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLhoDB-ORLQ) launcher with a 150 km range—key word being ‘typically’. It’s a pain in the ass, but technically they can be fired from the ammunition pod itself. This means it can be shipped, moved as it were. My thought is Ukraine fired these sons of bitches off from their [oil rigs around Odessa.](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ea/Ukrainian_gas_drilling_platforms_in_Black_sea.jpg)
Sure, it still doesn’t explain how the missiles made it to Belbek, but it’s a damn sight better than the hogwash the Kremlin is trying to sell.
>Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief General Valerii Zaluzhnyi presented an overarching strategy to seize the theater-wide initiative in Ukraine and retain it to facilitate Ukrainian battlefield victories despite Russia’s numerical advantages in manpower and materiel. Zaluzhnyi’s strategy aims to offset Ukraine’s existing challenges and pursue advantages over the Russian military through widespread technological innovation and adaptation.
I haven’t read it (will soon), but the ISW’s assessment seems to imply that the main problem is a lack of speed. It’s literally the same conundrum we had in World War One: the tank (horse) is too fragile to survive, and the infantry are too slow to exploit a breach. What do?
Again, I haven’t read it, but let me spit ball an idea: Gunships. These drones are getting big now, and honestly, it’s about time we try strapping a gatling gun to one of them. Why go through the whole rigmarole of dropping a grenade when you could instead point and shoot? Sure, recoil would be a bitch, but fear not, boys and girls. Uncle Sam has a [rifle for every occasion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recoilless_rifle).
The basic strat is: suicide drones swoop in for armor, gunships mop up infantry, and then the Ukrainians show up. Mostly as a formality, and ideally carried in palanquins by robots. Women...shall be brought to them.
>Russian milbloggers continued to voice frustrations about Russian forces’ continued tactical blunders during offensive operations in western Donetsk Oblast.
Kupyansk ain’t goin’ nowhere, mother fucker. That offensive was D.O.A.
Still ongoing, however. Making slight gains, so it is *way* too soon to call it, but you know what? I’m feeling lucky. I have seen zero indication the Kremlin can improve their offensive capacity. I’m watching the same columns of olive-green tanks blowing up that I was watching a year and change ago. The tactics are damn near identical.
Which is exactly why the milblogger is bitching. Ukrainian mines forced Russian armor into thin columns, making them easy targets for pre-sighted artillery. The Ukrainians took the lessons they learned at the Surovikhin Line and duplicated them in Kupyansk. If Ukraine, with all of its NATO intel and toys, couldn’t breach it, why would the incompetent and beleaguered Russian Federation have a prayer?
[Prove me wrong, Putin. Prove me wrong.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vis8Aaekpw)
>EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Joseph Borrell stated that the European Union (EU) will not be able to send the promised one million shells to Ukraine by March 2024, but is planning to fulfill this promise by the end of 2024.
More evidence of manufacturing as the primary bottleneck for aid.
>The European Union (EU) unanimously approved a financial support package for Ukraine for 2024 – 2027.
And closing tonight we have the highlight of my day. Good job, Europe. $54 billion is an enormous contribution, plus the EU demonstrated it can overrule a veto. That’s an important first step in reigning in such a misplaced democratization of power. Oh, and even better was seeing Victor Orban humiliated. That fat bastard needed to be reminded of his place.
Now it’s our turn here in the States. Last I heard the two bills, Ukraine and border, were about to be separated...and I legitimately have no idea if that’s good news. DC is opaque atm.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Russian authorities are planning to increase the deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia in 2024. Donetsk People’s Republic (DNR) Council Deputy Alla Barkhatnova stated on January 30 that occupation authorities in Kherson Oblast are working to increase the number of children who go on “trips” to “health and recreation” camps in Russia in 2024.[85] Barkhatnova noted that several such programs took place in 2023 and that Ukrainian children underwent ”social and psychological adaptation” in various camps, including in Litvonovo, Moscow Oblast, and in Krasnoyarsk, Krasnoyarsk Krai.

Like a river, I typically follow a predictable path, a groove I carve into the land, but over time the banks erode, the course subtly shifts. Yes, the destination is always the same, but the river? She is always new.
That is the essence of the Tao. Maybe. Probably not, actually. By calling it the Tao I make it not the Tao.
The point is sometimes a name is going to appear above your head. I attempt to acknowledge each of them, sometimes I’ll forget, and frequently it will take me several days to get around to it. Deep down in my core is a student putting off doing his homework.
Like for example, just forty years ago I got toasted in a hookah lounge in Jericho, right? Just stumbling out into the night absolutely shit-faced. I *should* have been back home to study for a chem exam...but fuck that noise. Now the Quran frowns on the matter of alcohol, but it is still very easy to find. Especially in hookah bars. Prohibition has never worked, neither federal nor divine. And when you mix the two? Bliss. I assume. I never could suffer tobacco. ..now what they sold under the table on the other hand...
That’s when I saw her: the most beautiful woman I have ever met. True, she was a bit hairy, and her horns were super pointy, but there was something about her cloven hooves, the sideways shift of her jaw as she chewed a mouthful of hay. It was mesmerizing. She was my Madonna, and I stumbled after her...but she was a nervous one and fled into the desert. And so I chased my nymph, my muse, my flighty infatuation, for what else is a man to do?
Jericho is not the most hospitable place, and it’s doubly so when you’re plastered. I soon got lost and come morning I still couldn’t find my way home. So I set to walking, and I’ll tell you I must have been marching through that desert for a *long-ass time* before, up ahead, through the haze and the heat, I saw Her. My Jezebel. The traitor who left me to my fate.
And yet...still I yearned for my love. I longed to feel her touch, the caress of her warm and insistent tongue. I swept her in my arms, but before we could become one, I heard a horn: a triumphant declaration from over the horizon to welcome the dawn. I looked and there I saw the city, and a puff of smoke...a puff which heralded the spinning form of /u/yaki_kaki cartwheeling through the sky. They slammed into the sand, smoldered for a bit, and took in the scene. Eventually they raised a single finger and stated, “That’s a goat.”
Anyway that’s the story of how /u/yaki_kaki stopped me from making a horrible mistake. In recognition of their deed, I award them the ‘Joshua’s Clarion Call’ flair. May they wear it with pride.
Don’t do ayahuasca, kids. You’ll fail your chem tests.

**[Ukraine:](https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-february-2-2024)**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>Russian President Vladimir Putin evoked a wide Russian social and economic mobilization reminiscent of the Soviet Union’s total mobilization during the Second World War during a February 2 speech despite the fact that Russia is undertaking a far more gradual but nonetheless effective mobilization of its defense industrial base (DIB).
The thing is, even the ISW recognizes that Russia doesn’t have anywhere left to go, industrially speaking. Their economy is suffering critical labor shortages, and the front is chewing through migrants at an alarming pace. Forty percent of the RF GDP is going into the war effort. Is that not mobilization? Seems like it to me.
Putin’s problem is that he’s a cartel masquerading as a government. He is chief oligarch among many oligarchs, all of whom get their wealth from appointments granted to them by Putin. Each, in one way or another, owe their position, their very livelihood, to Putin, intrinsically tying their lifestyle to his success. It means that if it doesn’t give Putin a cut, then it doesn’t exist, and more and more lately that’s just been the oil sector. Minimum pensions keep the Muscovites calm, and everyone else kind of just fends for themselves. Maybe the government sometimes does something. Maybe.
The point is, if industry is suffering labor shortages, and the front chews people, and if another mobilization will only exacerbate this dichotomy, what the hell else can Putin mobilize? Five? Ten more percent of GDP? Woopie! Anything more than that and austerity will begin to kick in, likely corresponding with a reduction in pensions.
>Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu stated on February 2 that Russian forces retain the “strategic initiative” along the entire frontline in Ukraine, a notable departure from Shoigu’s previous characterization of Russian operations as “active defense.”
Yep. And the tone has changed as well. Russia is trying to sound triumphant, which I imagine plays no small part into the impending presidential elections. It’s such a shame they don’t have any victories to show for this initiative, especially for the strength the Kremlin has committed,
>Ukrainian Eastern Group of Forces Spokesperson Captain Ilya Yevlash stated that Russian forces have concentrated 40,000 personnel, 500 tanks, 650 infantry fighting vehicles, 430 artillery systems, and over 150 MLRS systems in the Kupyansk direction, and that there is a total of 57,000 Russian personnel in both the Kupyansk and Lyman directions. Ukrainian officials and sources reported that Russian forces had concentrated roughly 100,000 personnel in the Kupyansk and Lyman directions as of October 2023. Yevlash may have been referring to a geographically smaller sector of the frontline area than the other Ukrainian sources.
Here’s a thought, ISW: what if she’s referring to the same sector of the frontline? What if Ukraine has killed 43, 000 Russians since October? What if she’s telling us there are only 17k Russians in the Lyman direction because the Kremlin’s concentrated everything they’ve got in Kupyansk? What if they’re having trouble replacing their losses? Maybe due to all the riots out east?
The world may never know.
Still, that’s a lot of crap. Good luck to Ukraine in the coming weeks.
>Open-source investigations indicate that Russian forces are benefitting from Ukraine’s ammunition shortage and inability to conduct sufficient counterbattery warfare.
Ukrainian ammunition shortages appear to be enabling the Russians. They’re concentrating artillery again, like in Bakhmut, smashing towns to smithereens before their advance. Drones are effective close, but they often can’t travel 25 kms to the artillery in the back line. To do that, Ukraine needs effective volume of fire to chase off any guns that get too close. They can’t do that with what they’ve got, at least in the Kupyansk direction.
>Russian outlet Izvestiya stated on February 2, citing sources within the Russian military, that the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) is forming air defense units as part of assault units to defend Russian infantry against Ukrainian drones, frontline air strikes, and shelling.
Wait...air defense units as part of assault units? The guys that storm the trenches? The rat food? What.
The example this outlet gave was driving a SAM platform right up to the front line to protect against drones...which was somehow supposed to accomplish something. To be honest I think this is just an excuse to force VKS troops without an AA gun to grab a rifle and man a trench. It’s not like S-400s are just rolling off the factory line, and Ukraine (supposedly) lacks an airforce, so what are these people even doing?
Nobody dare tell Putin this is a terrible idea. Because it’s not. It’s a great idea. Sending skilled SAM operators on pointless assaults prior to the arrival of F-16s is just the sort of ‘can do!’ attitutde that got Putin where he is today.

Over the past two to three years, overseas customers have increasingly prioritized the economics and stability of electricity consumption, thanks to favorable policies in the energy storage industry and higher energy prices. Consequently, the household energy storage markets have experienced rapid growth, and overseas markets have emerged as a primary driving force in the industry. The year 2022 marked significant growth in the industry, and as of 2023, there is still ample room for the development of household energy storage. The question arises: what lies ahead for this sector in 2024?
According to TrendForce statistics, the projected global installed capacity increment in 2024 is as follows: large-sized energy storage takes the lead with 53GW/130GWh, followed by household energy storage at 10GW/20GWh. The commercial and industrial energy storage sector contributes less to the increment with 7GW/18GWh.
**Europe: A trend of destocking is underway in the household energy storage sector.**
**The robust economics associated with it ensure the continual growth of the market.**
The promotion of household energy storage is entering its second phase, driven by its compelling economic advantages that promise long-term development. The easing supply of gas in Europe has led to a significant drop in prices for both local gas and electricity compared to the previous year. As of December 2023, the local electricity price in Germany has plummeted to less than EUR 0.1 per kilowatt-hour.
As the energy crisis in Europe eases, there's a surplus of household energy storage products. Customs statistics reveal a general decline in the volume of inverters exported from China to the Netherlands from January to October 2023. However, breaking the trend, November witnesses a positive month-on-month growth rate for the first time since August. The 2022 Russia-Ukraine geopolitical conflict, which triggered the energy crisis in Europe, prompted a heightened awareness of green energy products like household PV and energy storage systems. Furthermore, with the decreasing costs of energy storage and solar systems coupled with lower interest rates, there's substantial potential for the economic viability of household energy storage and solar products to further improve. Calculations indicate an impressive Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 12.7%, even with an electricity price of 0.11 euros per kilowatt-hour and energy storage and solar investment costs reaching 0.35 euros/Wh, with a payback period of about 6 years. Should the electricity price remain at normal levels, the ongoing decline in investment costs for energy storage and solar systems is expected to continuously stimulate local demand for green energy products, particularly household energy storage solutions.
**South Africa:** **The country is on the brink of a significant boost in installed capacity, fueled by the escalating electricity shortage crisis that is set to drive household energy storage development.**
As the demand for electricity continues to outstrip supply, the expansion of renewable energy installations is anticipated to persist. The 2021 annual report from Eskom, South Africa's main power operator, reveals a power landscape where 73.8% relies on coal-fired structures, and a staggering 90% of the installed capacity is under Eskom's monopoly. Challenges faced by the company, including aging coal power equipment, insufficient maintenance, overuse, and high debt, have normalized large-scale power limitations in South Africa. According to Deye Technology's announcement, 2022 witnessed power outages of varying degrees for 205 days throughout the year.
In response to this energy crisis, the South African government has initiated an ambitious renewable energy development plan. The goal is to achieve installed capacities of 17.7GW for wind power, 8.3GW for photovoltaic, and 5GW for energy storage. By 2030, these sources are expected to contribute 22.8%, 10.7%, and 6.4%, respectively, to the overall installed capacity, marking a significant shift towards a more sustainable and diversified energy landscape.
South Africa has been rolling out a series of progressive policies supporting renewable energy, resulting in a substantial year-on-year surge in domestic inverter exports. The government's commitment to fostering distributed power generation facilities was evident in the introduction of policies in July 2022 and March 2023. Additionally, numerous tax subsidies for photovoltaic energy storage were issued.
The export numbers tell a compelling story, with China sending 1.781 million inverters to South Africa between January and November 2023, showcasing an impressive year-on-year growth of 72.8%. Notably, the export volume witnessed a remarkable boost since March when the South African government expanded its renewable energy tax incentive policy. Anticipating continued growth, South Africa's installations are poised for a significant uptick. The country grapples with an ongoing power supply crisis, prompting the government to not only address immediate challenges but also implement favorable policies to stimulate long-term growth in new energy installations.
**South Africa: Frequent power shortages are forcing the manufacturing industry to shut down.**
**The pressing need for energy storage systems arises from these recurrent outages, and consequently, the demand for such systems in the South African energy storage market is anticipated to rise.**
In June 2023, the export numbers of inverters to Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia experienced significant YoY growth—533,000, 101,000, and 233,000 units respectively, marking increases of 945.3%, 46.3%, and 75.2%. This surge indicates a substantial growth in the energy storage market demand in Southeast Asia since the beginning of summer. The primary reason behind this surge is the increased vulnerability and instability of the local power grids during extreme weather events and the rise in renewable energy capacity. For instance, in Vietnam, the El Niño phenomenon has led to a sharp decline in hydropower generation, which constitutes 43% of the installed power in northern Vietnam.
Simultaneously, high power generation loads have resulted in frequent accidents in coal power generation, severely impacting local factory production, manufacturing, and the daily lives of residents. The urgency to safeguard power supply has escalated the need for energy storage system construction.
In southern Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and other neighboring countries, the proportion of new energy installed capacity continues to rise, with energy storage systems playing a crucial role in utilizing renewable energy. Consequently, there is an expected increase in the installation of energy storage systems. Since the latter half of 2023, the household storage market has witnessed inventory build-up, leading to a slowdown in demand and sparking diverse market expectations for 2024. As the energy transition gains momentum, the evolution of the household storage market in 2024 raises questions about new opportunities in specific country markets and potential changes in market share. The unfolding developments in 2024 will be eagerly awaited. | r/energystorage | post | r/EnergyStorage | 2024-02-04 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4RlE2OFVRdk5XT2VOQ0NuLVZFcklzV041ZHhHdF93WGRYVFZhSHU0aFNkTkpVYmZ6ZmZ6ejNTRDJ6bEdIamt1Z3RjMi1tQTJXRFR0ZUh1UFpNajBwNVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVaW02Y2xMN0ROemZnZkxKUUVVSjctSFdtSHl0RjJMYjhzWFJsbGZXRlRNZjRRaEtCM3A2aUM1eXB2eUdXREg4T0FQSWZOYnlkV2VxMlIzWWRpbk9Lemd2cG1qMlpEMHhPQVJiM3NHLThtU3NFaE94NktlSGtQbTBTY3Z2ZmNKU2hudVNWRW5kN2tTbmpnU2dlVWZrWlVWZjVNQmVYbE92NzJfVVlhdzg2RjR2QkRoT3htREgyTVktMEc1RXQ4bjNRbzFGV1dGTm9XSGVxOEVocnFILXhaUT09 |
EnergyTrend has gathered insights from the latest EIA statistics, revealing that energy storage installations with capacities exceeding 1MW reached 1.23GW in December. This marks a substantial 332% year-on-year increase and a notable 183% month-on-month rise. However, it's noteworthy that the actual installations in December fell short of the projected 2.35GW from the previous month.
Additionally, Customs statistics indicate that the export of inverters from China to the United States has experienced notable dynamics.
Taking a retrospective view of the U.S. market, the initial half of 2023 witnessed new energy storage installations totaling 2.5GW out of 7.7GW. Challenges like supply chain disruptions and delayed grid connections for large-scale energy storage impacted photovoltaic (PV) installations in the first half, resulting in figures below expectations. Despite this, as issues eased in the third quarter, large-scale energy storage installations demonstrated stable month-on-month growth. Consequently, the annual installations for 2023 maintained steady growth.
According to EIA data, newly added installations of energy storage systems for utility scale (more than 1MW) reached 6.22GW, reflecting a noteworthy 50.6% year-on-year increase.
**Looking ahead to 2024: 2024 will witness a surge in projects, an improved supply chain scenario, and more detailed and certain IRA subsidies, signaling a promising future.**
The United States stands as the primary global market for large-sized energy storage, boasting ample project reserves. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the newly added installations of energy storage systems for utility scale (more than 1MW) throughout 2024 may reach 14.53GW (slightly adjusted from last month's forecast of 14.59GW), marking a remarkable year-on-year growth of 133.6%. It's worth noting that this planned capacity data is continuously updated.
The overall cost on the supply side, encompassing elements like battery cells and capital, is on a downward trend. Furthermore, the IRA policy is evolving with more detailed specifications and a gradual implementation plan. Concurrently, the United States' backlog of grid connections has eased, supported by conducive policies. Consequently, the United States is poised to witness a substantial increase in large-sized energy storage system installations, paving the way for a flourishing future for the industry.
Furthermore, as relevant policy processes undergo simplification and considering the existing project reserves, TrendForce anticipates that U.S. energy storage installations will likely hit 13.7GW / 43.4GWh in 2024, marking a substantial 23% and 25% increase. Although the growth rate of installed capacity slowed down to 100% in 2023 compared to the previous year, specific analysis reveals that large-sized energy storage continues to dominate the energy storage landscape in the United States.

Even TNR has turned to click-bait.
Cotton asked the Tik Tok CEO 2 questions about whether he was a member of the Chinese Communist party. It's a good question, given the relationship between Tik Tok and the CCP.
"Going Full Racist" is now a ludicrously low threshold.

No there are rules to war. Back then people used to fight on BATTLEFIELDS not on civilian grounds bombing innocent people’s houses. I kinda wish that we were back in the sword era because war was much less damaging to civilians than it is now. People actually used to have rules to war but now people’s egos have overtaken them and people have become much more evil following the mid-1700s up until now. | r/humanrights | comment | r/humanrights | 2024-02-04 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4QjFSMThTMW5ycTVPTE1FbTFSTm1mT284ZjRVOWV0c2hCYXREUUpVTVJpczBBSDN3WUNTYXJaQWZkU1hMRWFLRnNsZjk4VzQ5STZSWWIycTdHM2FmY1BoRV9zdnota2J6U1c4OVM5RjBmX2s9 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVWFhmbmZIbHJOY3pxd1ptRDV0NHZ3YUZSSkVmT1BTYXJxYTlWQWhtSzlnNFVaWDFlQy1lVTdIUWo3T2hYV01FUWZ5LTFNMjlreE9sczk0OU01OUR2N0N3cG5CSGVnUEphX3BIckZ0eFUtWWJGcS1vVTkxZzQzUnVha0l5YjZTaS1zTlNnakdrcGRzUnltRWFUaWZZYmMzOTdLT2tMTGFyZVBYS3Jlc3hQR2tBeFFIaHJ3eksxbWVjazlraHM1TTNSOC1LT082dk4wWWFxcnJ6d2NIMGZFQT09 |

[TrendForce](https://www.trendforce.com/)’s latest research indicates that the global lithium battery market remained subdued in January, with cell makers still working through their inventories and production rates lingering at low levels. The ASP of EV cells has continued to fall—the most significant drop was observed in EV pouch cells, which saw a MoM decline of 7.3% to CNY 0.51/Wh. While prices are expected to continue declining in February, the rate of decrease is likely to slow down.
https://preview.redd.it/8d7hxn5j6ogc1.png?width=602&format=png&auto=webp&s=36682eab90ed70163bb6aa795acd2c8cf5d33770
In the ESS sector, with the Lunar New Year on the horizon, market demand has shown no significant fluctuations. Though the production rate for ESS cells did not match that of EV cells, prices remained relatively stable, with a MoM decline of 2.2% to CNY 0.44/Wh.
Demand was weak in January for consumer cells, compounded by a continuous drop in the price of lithium cobalt oxide and a 7.4% MoM decrease in cathode prices. This led to a slight decrease in the cost of LCO cells in January with a MoM drop of 5.9% to CNY 5.43/Ah. Currently, the price of raw materials has stabilized and as the Chinese New Year approaches, small-scale rigid demand replenishment among raw material suppliers has led to a slight rebound in lithium prices after stabilizing, while cobalt prices have generally remained steady.
However, given that downstream demand has not yet fully recovered, the momentum for a continued rebound in raw prices appears insufficient. Consequently, the overall price trend for consumer cells in February is expected to remain stable.
TrendForce notes that lithium salt prices have stabilized, but the growth of the EV market may slow down in 2024, as mentioned by Tesla in their Q4 earnings call last year, indicating an expectation for moderated sales growth this year. Faced with increased market competition and buyers’ pursuit of cost reductions, Chinese battery suppliers are likely to opt for cost-cutting measures, aiming to push EV cell prices down to CNY 0.3/Wh in 2024. This strategy could pose operational challenges for suppliers who are at a disadvantage in securing raw materials. Given these trends, the overall market average price of battery cells is expected to slightly decrease in the first quarter. | r/energystorage | post | r/EnergyStorage | 2024-02-05 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4QlZfS25jMklGb1FueUFnZnRBS184X2RJdGNfWG9xMjdyZVZhcUlnMms1TGpoejREVWF6R2xjT2I5S2htZ2Flc2hteFQ0eUM5WlVleFYzakFvRUs5dVE9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVV2ZSdnBUbmNaVHVteDNtSjVlVWVaZi1QMEg4dFRRUmgtNklHSDJsQkxxa3RrM3VJVWVaWGs4M1NWeFRXSDZsT3JJZHc3cG1UaWoyZzVVTUh5OElaS1I3d1JlRmh3cVdhSTVySGJSRWdCNzd5dXNTNzRnYmZvM09qdzNZNVZ3c1Fwd2poa3E3U3F3cmtJSGJNUmNwNTEzT1VaaHM2b3R3bDFwVjVpY00zSERTblpvMmo5QUNMUEY1bHBWUG52bUY5ZmFfZXc2YkRadC1jYVZqZVF3V1Nkdz09 |
I am a young (17-year-old) college and high school student in Texas, USA who would like to write a paper on the situation in Yemen right now for a school project. I am sadly uncertain about a huge chunk of the situation that is happening in Yemen. I am told that it is the Yemenis/Houthis that started this, but I am honestly skeptical about this claim, given that I have researched the situation in Russia and Ukraine, and during research, I found out that a lot of what the West reports to not be very true, and purposefully anti-Russian in nature. I am currently learning Russian right now. This same situation could be affecting Yemen, and I would like to know about the relations between Russia, china, and other allies that Yemen has, and their effects on the situation with Western powers attacking the country. If anyone would like to reach out with their perspective on the situation, it would be of great help. I would appreciate any news sources or websites that give me the pro-Houthi perspective.
Regarding the interview, this might done through Discord or Telegram through voice, and I plan to have a large group of people that I will have respond to my question, and this will make for a large discussion and will give many details on the situation. I will let you stay anonymous if you wish. I could also just do individual interviews through text or voice, if you wish. PM if interested. | r/yemenicrisis | post | r/YemeniCrisis | 2024-02-05 | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVg4Mll4ZmpXSXdxRmhOeG40RXNSUFBFaER6a2tJeEl5Vks5QjlIalVuZnk4UHVybWxHQ0puakNCT3ZfV0VBbEh0UmE2bElreVZERTByYk8zRlF0Z1hSS1E9PQ== | Z0FBQUFBQm03SVhVY3czR2pGUW9hSWo1ZW9ncHVIYzZteTVqVVUteXhIZEdvRUNKX1E5OHBoZmhkMFR6TTRNSjd4QnRMai1hX3JtWmpnMkhCeWRtaDNEekIwUEFTMG1CMFdiY181emxnVmFYdEtUREpqMnNEMDhyNVZvazZTSFIxdkFKNk1TZFFtUDc3cndnUG9mU3FHVW1WeHZzQXlleVZITTFPTXU4NnBlV3dDOW4xYlR0QUJvYThVbERfc0Q0X0hhWG9YZ1otX1VfbDFLdDNodXplZ0h4Z0pwMHBVV0Z5QT09 |
