How does the increase in renewable energy sources contribute to the growing frequency of negative electricity prices in France and globally?

The negative price reflects an oversupply of electricity, driven by abundant solar energy and reduced demand. This surplus forces producers to pay for injecting electricity into the grid because electricity is difficult to store on a large scale. The trend of negative electricity prices is increasing globally due to the growth of renewable energy sources.

After six MotoGP Grand Prix weekends, Marc Márquez's dominance is clear; only he can prevent his own victory. Unless he makes mistakes, another world championship seems inevitable.

What are the immediate consequences of the failed negotiations in New Caledonia regarding its future status, and what are the key global implications of this deadlock?

Following Manuel Valls's visit to New Caledonia, negotiations for the territory's future ended without an agreement. While Valls successfully brought stakeholders together, relying on ambiguous agreements is risky. The territory's future has been marked by conflicting views: the deterministic interpretation of the Noumea Accords supporting independence contradicts three referendums favoring continued French affiliation.", A2="The ambiguity surrounding New Caledonia's sovereignty fueled resentment and fear, culminating in the May 13, 2023 insurrection. The core issue is sovereignty; the concept itself doesn't allow ambiguity. While sovereignty can be delegated, as in the EU, this delegation is reversible, as seen with Brexit. Applying this to New Caledonia, any delegated sovereignty could be reversed, impacting future autonomy.", A3="Two scenarios for New Caledonia's future exist: local sovereignty with extensive delegation to France, or national sovereignty with broad local delegation. While functionally similar initially, the key difference lies in future evolutions. Local sovereignty allows for independent decisions regarding the delegation, while national sovereignty requires agreement with France.
