- kaashif 4y agoI think the sentences are slightly too long, lack punctuation, and are...monotone? I don't know, but I agree. Maybe I also need more sleep.
- freetime2 4y agoI found it to be difficult to follow. My assumption was that the intended audience was for people who are much more familiar with these things than myself, who wouldn't need (or want) expanded context. Or it could just be poor writing.
- tuatoru 4y agoYep, you need quite a bit of background knowledge, imho. And it's poor writing--just "notes to self". If you have time look at the charts in the linked paper, "Empirically grounded technology forecasts and the energy transition"[1]. The "experts"--the International Energy Agency IEA, the National Renewable Energy Laboratories NREL, etc.--are getting things badly wrong, because of the limitations of their modelling software. 1. https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(22)00410-X https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(22)00410-X
