Global Nations Retreat from Fossil Fuel Dependency

On February 13, 2025, mass electric vehicles were seen during daily operations in Medan, North Sumatra, to meet local transportation needs. The global emphasis on efforts to minimize the use of fossil fuels underscores the challenges associated with storing electrical energy. Similarly, the electric vehicle Togg T10X became a souvenir to mark the 75th anniversary of the partnership between Indonesia and Turkey. In addition, Indonesia is involved in geological research focused on rare earth elements, including lithium, found in the remains of the Sidoarjo mudflow disaster.

Both high-voltage pylons and wind turbines serve as crucial components of the Netherlands' power grid, transmitting electrical energy across vast distances in the landscape. However, the grid is facing increasing congestion, particularly in older urban areas, villages, and polders, where outdated infrastructure struggles to accommodate the growing number of solar panels. Alliander, the parent company of grid operator Liander, has warned that the grid is so overloaded that temporary overloads are necessary to meet energy demands, leading to flickering lights and power outages for consumers. This congestion is exacerbated by sustainability measures, such as the installation of 1 million heat pumps and the proliferation of electric cars and solar panels, which strain the grid's capacity.

High-voltage pylons are masts in the high-voltage grid to which cables are attached, which transmit amounts of electrical energy over relatively large distances in the landscape. Consumers are increasingly experiencing congestion on the power grid. Especially in the polders and in older urban districts and villages, outdated parts of the power grid cannot cope with the growth in the number of solar panels. Netherlands on February 4, 2024.
