A subsidized electric car maker has a tantrum and leaves presidential councils

The point... is ? negative emissions ...
Entirely predictably the article doesn't elaborate on the economics / accountancy part of this wonderful engineeering achievement. It would be useful to know how it's funded and what the business model is....
The Times preview of Llewellyn village power prog ..said that the problem was that the villagers generated too much power for their local grid to use
..Bet they don't explain that's cos intermittents like solar/wind put out energy in spiky patterns.
Anyone happen to know how many UK solar panel years you need to make energy eqt to 1 barrel of oil.

Juncker claims that Trump is ignorant, doesn't understand the dossier and doesn't realise that he's bound to the agreement for at least three years. Juncker is the ignorant one. Leaving the Paris agreement needs 3 years notice - but if the USA leaves the agreement to which Paris is a protocol, that only requires a year's notice.
