cellular networks are out of reach during a Helsinki-Tallinn crossing, so I would not deem this to be too rare for most cruise ships.

I am not sure why I am being downvoted, when a quick look at figures [1] show Germany indeed performs abysmally considering the amount of installed wind/solar capacity. As I speak, only 10% of combined wind and solar power are generati

Hydrogen storage exists on PowerPoint slides that usually slightly understate the overhead required to build new, or adapt current gas infrastructure. Spoiler: those problems are not trivial to overcome. That's why they're mostl

But... it's not about cost. It's about having energy available . If weather reports show overcast and low winds, and your grid runs on wind/solar power only, who cares about their electricity bill? There won't be any kW

It's a non-subject really. NPPs are technically very well able to function under such heatwave. Regulations limiting the upstream/downstream water temperature difference and the maximum stream temperature are the limiting factor.

It should read "stringline".

I believe you could get from the Netherlands to Spain in just two trips: Amsterdam > Paris in Thalys, and Paris > Madrid in AVE (seasonal) or > Barcelona in TGV (neither involve track gauge change). You could do that in the span of

Again, being proficient in English or in the radiotelephony language used in the country of flight, as per FCL.055, does not equate to "[English being] mandatory for all pilots at least in EASA and FAA", as you said. I could v

I am not IR. English proficiency is indeed a requirement for IR, but then it is only a subset of aeronautical activity. Flying in France comprises a minor yet significant share of non-commercial, non-IFR operations.
