Portugal has wanted to shield energy from Spain: the light bill has been the first to pay the price

by

Spain and Portugal closed last year proclaiming themselves of the energy transition, since 82% of its electricity It came from clean sources. Within this energy harmony in which both countries were walking together, it seems that it has vanished after the blackout of April 28. Short. Still without An official explanation Clara of the causes of the mass blackout, both Spain and Portugal They have established a joint committee to investigate what happened. Meanwhile, Portugal has chosen to suspend electricity imports from Spain as a preventive measure, According to Financial Times. A fragmented energy island. The Iberian Peninsula is considered an “energy island” for its limited connections with Europe. For this reason, both countries have been forced to each other to balance their electrical systems. However, the blackout has evidenced the fragilities of this interdependence and has led Portugal to question the level of energy dependence it maintains with Spain. In Xataka If the question is "a country can hold only with renewable energy"the answer is here next: Portugal Immediate repercussions. Before the blackout, Portugal imported up to 35% of its electricity from Spain. This flow not only covered the Luso Energy Deficit, but also allowed the neighboring country to store the Spanish surplus in its hydroelectric plants, acting as water batteries, such as has detailed The Financial Times. However, the abrupt cut of that supply has left the country exposed to a much more expensive electric market. In data. According to OMIEwholesale electricity prices in Spain fell up to € 10.24/MWh, while in Portugal they shot € 47.92/MWh. This price difference has put in trouble to Portuguese companies and consumers, especially those without long -term contracts that protect them from sudden rise in rates. There is a shy openness. On Thursday after the blackout, imports began to reopen again, but limited capacity has maintained high prices in Portugal. According to the RENthe Portuguese electricity operator has indicated that the import capacity will be limited to 1,000 megawatts per day until May 12, a figure that represents less than a fifth of the usual import volume. {“Videid”: “X88TF3K”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “Save on your light bill: the best options to know prices on your mobile”, “Tag”: “Webedia-prod”, “Duration”: “258”} Future implications.

However, Armindo Monteiro, director of CIP, the main business group in Portugal, has warned that the country “does not live or should live in electrical isolation”, and has underlined the need to review the safety and dependence conditions in an uncertain energy context.

This Mercedes Class G costs the same as a Dacia Duster. Its price is precisely its biggest problem

by

163,756.71 euros. That is the price that the configurator of the Mercedes class g When we enter to select all the details of our next great electric offset. It is, of course, the departure price. For example, if you want to add the comfort package, with systems as revolutionary as the opening of keyless doors or wireless recharge of the mobile phone for the front seats you can already add another 2,000 euros of extra. With four small details it is easy to go above 180,000 euros. A prohibitive price for most mortals and, of course, is far from the other Mercedes Class G Electric that you can find in the market. Yes, one for which just over 20,000 euros have been paid. One that, of course, is not an electric class G but imitates it with great detail. Too bad it is a golf cart And not a car, right? A $ 24,000 golf cart Because this Mercedes Class G can be bought at the price of a Dacia Duster, it is to anticipate that who has been done with him has enough money to buy a Mercedes class g of truth. The information is brought in The Drive who assure that a client has paid $ 24,000 for this golf cart converted to Mercedes G Class in Miniature, sold by Mecum auctionsspecialized in the auction of all types of special vehicles. On their website they explain that the supposed SUV is, in reality, a quadricycle (they call it golf cart) with a 10 kWh battery to cover up to 80 miles (about 120 kilometers). With a power of 15 kW (20 hp), the car is limited to 35 mph (56 km/h). That is, it is little more than in Europe we consider a light quadricycle. In the United States that Golf carts have become fashionable To do small daily errands. As with the Citroën Ami or the Fiat TopolinoThey are cars that cannot circulate on a highway or highway but are allowed to go to secondary roads and are widely used by older people who do not want to go far from home. That has promoted curious modifications such as this supposed electricity class G Class that perfectly mimics the body of the German car. Inside, the differences are more evident but has four disc brakes, assisted direction and rear camera to facilitate maneuvers. In addition, it carries a complete multimedia environment that with a screen for each passenger in the rear seats. In front of the information is distributed in A couple of twin screens which are integrated into the same frame. Of course, although disguised, with the images we can appreciate that what will be up to this Pseudo Mercedes Mercedes Electric Class will be the sum of many hard plastics. This imitation gives an idea that the grid market is dominated by purely practical models but that there is also a place for those who seek in them something of a fashion accessory. The pamper that Fiat has put to the tooline design It is a good example but also the irruption of Microlinoa reinterpretation of the BMW isetta that It is sold for 19,500 euros If we talk about the light quadricycle (it does not exceed 45 km/h) or 22,990 euros for the heavy grid.

adjust the price of coffee while using them

by

The price that a bar charges you for a coffee usually depends on issues such as where you drink it, what kind of grain is or what you accompany it. In Barceloneta, Barcelona’s tourist heart, in that equation it has begun to sneak An extra factor: How long it takes to drink it. If you sit on the restaurant terrace and hurry the cup in less than half an hour You pay a priceif you relax too much and pass from 30 minutes it will be another and if you already lose the notion of time and you end up more than an hour with the cup in front it will cost you much more. The same goes for tea. The measure has already generated debate. Coffee and minutes issue. In full Plaça de la Barceloneta, not much distance from the Museum of History of Catalonia, there is a small cafeteria that has gone viral in networks. His name: Perfetto. The reason: a small poster. On Sunday @maria_lostia, an X user, A tweet uploaded With a photo in the establishment, a plasticized price table and a message are shown: “In Barceloneta if you want coffee you have to drink it in less than 30 minutes.” If the publication of María is already on the way of 302,000 visualizations and has given rise to news in the Catalan media and of rest of the country It is not however because of what it says, but for what it shows. The table in question basically details what a coffee with milk costs, a Capuccinoa cut, a espresso or a tea depending on the time that the client passes on the terrace. More time, higher price. Click on the image to go to Tweet. You choose: 1.6, 2.5 or 4 euros. In The image It is seen for example that a milk with milk costs 1.6 euros. That is the starting price. If the customer passes with its consumption more than 30 minutes the rate is already 2.5 euros and if the time exceeds the price returns to another stretch until it stays in four. Something similar happens with the Capuccinothe cuts, the espressos or tea. For example, a cup of the infused drink costs two euros, but the rate rises to three past the first half hour and four with the second. What gravels that price increase is supposedly the time that the client enjoys the terrace of the cafeteria. It is not strange that businesses charge A supplement To serve drinks or meals outside the premises, but much less is that the price varies depending on the minutes that the customer passed on the terrace. Although for despair of the hotelier I am more than an hour with a single drink. “Businesses are not profitable”. eldiario.es has spoken with Massimo, the owner of the business, who explains that decided to print the famous table after witnessing a anger between customers precisely because of the lack of space. “It was a night when some were waiting for a table they got tired and faced those who were sitting, who had been lengthening without consuming,” says the hotelier. For him the table is a “warning”, “a way of raising awareness.” Despite the level of detail of the rates, Massimo ensures that the cafeteria does not apply them strictly either. “It is actually a kind of joke. And just we charge this if we have customers waiting. No one likes to see how people occupy a table where you want to sit if they are not consuming anything,” He recounts. “Joke” or not, the hotelier recognizes that customers who eternalize their passage through the terraces with a single drink directly affects business profitability. “You can’t spend many hours without consuming. If not, businesses are not profitable.” A not -so new measure. To collect more or less for a coffee depending on the time that the client passes on a terrace is not usual, but there are Other formulas They do have a tour in the sector. For example, businesses that require a minimum consumption or restaurant tables with limited time. Today it is relatively common that when a reservation is made, the waiter reports that the table can be used only until a certain time. Sometimes because the same table is reserved for another customer in a second turn. Another practice that Nor is it new They are the timed terraces, in which the stay of the clients is limited to prevent them from occupying their limited places with a single cane or coca-cola. In 2022 The newspaper It echoed In fact, some hoteliers in Barcelona were applying a kind of “time tarification”, with posters in which they reported the time each client could be based on what he asked. A soda gave right to 30 minutes. A meal at an hour and a half. The background debate. Although over the last days the media focus has been put in Perfetto, the reality is that its decision connects with other background debates that go far beyond the small cafeteria. The first is the attempt of the restoration to make their businesses in a Complex contextmarked by the rise in prices (special mention for Coffee) and the crisis of old formats, such as The reeds either THE MENUS OF THE DAYin crisis precisely because of how difficult it is to adjust costs. The other key debate, especially If we talk about Barcelonais that of the Tourist. The flow of tourists (including foreigners) moves millions of euros, but also directly affects the day to day of the inhabitants of the great destinations in such basic aspects as housing or Commerce, influencing in its operation. I recognized it recently Malaga in A report in which he warned that excessive pressure from the sector “can cause the expulsion of native businesses, being replaced by souvenir stores and tourist -oriented shops.” Images | Bryan Dijkhuizen (UNSPLASH) and Raimond Klavins (Flickr) In Xataka | More and more Spanish bars … Read more

The problem with Tesla Cybertruck is not its price, you don’t know if it comes direct from a field

by

The story of Reza Sostani is the best summary of the Tesla disaster with his Cybertruck. A Texan client that took only one day to return it after buying it. The reason? He acquired the Tesla Cybertruck on April 25 and, just a few hours later, the vehicle was ready for collection. This immediacy in the delivery, despite what it might seem, is bad news. The Lostani case. Relatani says He is one of the buyers of the Cybertruck in Tesla. On April 25 he made the order of the car, surprising after the immediate allocation of Vin number (number of identification chassis of each vehicle) and notification on the same day that his car was prepared for the collection. Different, he decided to ask Tesla from where the vehicle came from and how it was possible that he was ready. The Tesla representative he consulted soon in giving him the news: his cybertruck had left the factory on January 8. The Cybertruck and their dates. Buying a vehicle that has been manufactured for a few months has an immediate translation: stock accumulation. In the case of Tesla this is especially relevant, since its models usually have high demand (Model 3) and it is common for stock units to have a few weeks old. If we take into account that it is an open secret that Tesla is accumulated outdoors thousands of cybertruck that He can’t sell for monthsthe rejection of the buyer to one with four months is more than understandable. Manufacture and park. That a vehicle spends four months stored in a campaign is not the best for your health. In the case of an electric vehicle, it is especially relevant, since the battery storage temperature, its load level, air ventilation to avoid moisture, possible oxides … Everything influences. One of the photographers of Tesla’s gigafactories published in X, without giving much more data about itthe image that shows dozens of cybertrucks freshly production. Some of them were ready to be delivered, others would remain waiting for owner. Tesla Model 3 highland that had not yet been sold, stranded in fields Hundreds of tesla not sold, stacked in another field. The problem with the fields. The problem is that, on more than one occasion, He has hunted Tesla accumulating in Campas Hundreds of without selling vehicles. And, yes, there will be some lucky owner who ends up sending one of the Tesla who has been outdoor months. It is not a car to play it. The maturity that Tesla has achieved by refining the manufacture of Model 3 or the Model and It is quite far from the Cybertruck historic. This electric truck has a terrible depreciation For their very high repair costs, their numerous call calls and the various problems associated with its manufacture. It is predictable that the potential customer of a Cybertruck is new, something that clashes frontally with the gigantic vehicle park without selling that Tesla has now in its factories. More manufacture than sales. This excess stock responds to a basic: Tesla has manufactured many more cybertrucks than its public demands. So much, that the company is starting to lower the price drastically and open to new markets, such as Saudi Arabia, to stabilize sales. Last April we had news about an inevitable response to this situation: Tesla is beginning to reduce the production of the Cybertruck and reducing up to half some of its production equipment, According to Business Insider sources.

The finish of this version has a lighting system baptized as “Victory Halo” (which is not only decorative, but reacts to notifications, for example) and reproduces a pattern in the rear that reminds that of a wick. It is striking, without a doubt, and makes it clear that it is a device focused on the youngest public. A GOOD DISPLAY.

I had to look twice the price of the cmf phone 2 pro to believe it. Nothing’s submarket has broken the mid -range

by

Launch a sub -run and that their products end up stealing the prominence to the main brand. It is something that happened to Xiaomi in the mid -range with little, and something that will get CMF with your Phone 2 Pro. The company has just presented a new model with a value for money that, in increasingly expensive mobile times, is an overwhelming victory over its direct rivals. The Specs. A quick review to have context. MEDATEK DIMENSITY 7300 (same processor that some companies introduce in mobile phones of more than 400 euros), 5,000MAH battery, 6.77 -inch HDR 10+ screen with 3,000 shine nits, triple camera (50 MP, 8 MP angular and teleobjective of 50 megapixels). If we add the 8 + 128 GB of memory, the six years of security updates (three operating system) and the amount of accessories that we can add (covers, interchangeable lenses, wallet), the set is winner. The price. 249 euros for the 128 GB version and 279 euros for the 256 GB, the most recommended by far. A Little x7 It went on the market at a price of 299 euros just three months ago, with similar specs (some better, others worse than those of this CMF). Be that as it may, launching a mobile of 249 euros in the mid -range is an exception. If we analyze the market in search of similar mobiles, we find alternatives such as Moto Edge 60 for 429 euros, or the Galaxy A55 for 479 euros. Nothing. CMF is a nothing sub -which, curiously, begins to offer even more interesting alternatives. A year ago the company launched the Nothing Phone 2Aa phone with a 7200 dimensity, a screen with less brightness, less cameras, less support and weakest sparces. Its price was 329 euros and, still, it was a good figure. He Phone 3a Pronot so far in Specs regarding this phone, costs 459 euros. I do not hide, I have had to consult twice the price of CMF Phone 2 Pro before preparing this piece, since I thought it was some kind of promotional offer. Those 249 euros put on the table a CMF that not only offers an alternative quality-price against their direct rivals: it is a price that positions it as an even more attractive candidate than some of his nothing brothers. Exception or norm. Nothing has not detailed how the CMF supply chain works, but we know that the CMF PhonE 1 is manufactured mainly in India. Given the tariff uncertainty, it will remain to check if this phone is an exception (as was the OnePlus 3 in its day offering high range at a ridiculous price), or if the socioeconomic and geopolitical context prevents again to enjoy such a price. I have it quite clear and, in the absence of trying it, I have a clear candidate to recommend when they ask me for an economic mobile.

It is a terminal that points not high, but very high, and with which CMF aspires to stand up to all other brands that seek to offer a solvent proposal in the range of 200-250 euros. His new smartphone promises a lot. And for 249 euros, Nothing’s sister firm has managed to launch a mobile with a huge AMOLED screen at 120 Hz, a processor MEDATEK DIMENSITY 7300 PRO and a triple camera with Telefoto.

Thus, the user who opts for him will enjoy Android 18. It is not the highest commitment in the marketbut an interesting proposal taken into account the price and the range. CMF Phone 2 Pro | Image: CMF Finally, Telefoto. But more interesting is the fact that a 250 euro phone offers optical zoom. This technology has historically been reserved for high -end mobiles, but Nothing has managed to take it to the most modest range. In addition to a 50 megapixel angular and a great angle of 13, the CMF Phone 2 Pro offers a 50 megapixel telescope with two -increase optical zoom.

The answer is that … it seems that everyone will make war on their own. Problems everywhere. The 2024 coffee harvest faced a series of problems that caused raw coffee prices to increase drastically. Extreme climatic factors how droughts and irregular rains hit the two Main coffee producers (Brazil and Vietnam). This has affected both the production and the quality of the grain, but they have also caused transport cuts due to Problems on the Suez channelwhich has delayed shipments and increased costs. All this, in addition to other factors, has caused coffee to be going through strong inflationary pressure, with increases that, depending on the week, have reached up to 40% compared to what is seen a year ago. It is something similar to what is happening with cocoa and that has turned coffee into one of the thermometers of the global economy. The blissful tariffs. The one that was missing in the equation was … Trump. Tariffor “tariff” has become the word Favorite From the new president of the United States, and these last weeks we have lived an authentic tariff syrup between countries. It is something that affects markets such as cars, oil, technology, Digital services, food products And, obviously, coffee. These tariffs proposed by the United States are a protectionist measure, but also a throwing weapon with a clear intention: threaten countries To do what the USA wants. A clear example is the Tariff threat to Mexico and Canadatwo of the main US business partners that originated Dimes and Diartes among the presidents of the countries. And also We have seen it with Colombia. If the Latin American country did not yield to the aggressive immigration policy promoted from the White House, the threat was to impose rates of 25% and up to 50%. And what product that the United States loves is one of the world powers? Coffee. Hitting the pocket. According to the Observatory of Economic Complexity, in 2022 Colombia exported 15.6 billion dollars To the US, of which almost 1.8 billion corresponded to coffee. Coffee is the great merchandise exported by the country, in terms of value, only behind oil. The New York Times warned that imposing 25% or more to Colombian goods would impact the pocket of the Americans and here there are two options: or stop consuming so much … or assume the extra cost. Variety of postures. Boris Wüllner is the CEO of Green Coffeeone of the largest producers in Colombia that has been investing great sums In the country. In an interview for The RepublicWüllner comments that it is time for companies to look for the way of being more efficient in the production chain, even toasting the grain on American soil to “avoid a larger tax effect.” In fact, he sees it as a business opportunity. While Latin American coffees will be taxed with 10%, those of Indonesia and Vietnam will face tariffs of a 32% and 46% respectivelywhich will allow, despite those 10%tariffs, the Colombian product is more competitive. Wüllner also considers that it will be the consumer who absorbs the increase that these tariffs will imply, but that they will not stop drinking coffee. Different opinion have from Europe, specifically from Lavazza. Touching the limit. Its executive director, Antonio Baravalle, believes that consumer tolerance is reaching the limit due to high prices and is clear that this increase in costs for consumers is what has generated “an average contraction of the world coffee market of approximately 3.5% in the last two years”. And that the tariffs had not yet come into play. From the US National Coffee Association they share this opinion, commenting that “the great price increase is eaten the liquidity of the customers. They do not have all the money to buy what they need.” Beyond producers and USA. The issue is that it is not an issue that affects only the directs involved. “If the US imposes a 25% tariff on all Colombian exports, the coffee market, which is already red, will heat even more,” I commented A few days ago Javier Blas, Bloomberg columnist. Colombia is the third producer worldwide of a variety, the Arabica, which is also the most appreciated among specialty coffee shops. And that the Colombian market sets out in the United States could impact the rest of the world. Liquefied natural gas. As? With more price increases to cushion the coup to producers and toaster. But … what if the situation were different? Here we can look at the LNG. If large toasters reduce purchases in the US, the most likely scenario is a combination of production and detour adjustments to other markets. In other sectors, such as liquefied natural gas, we have already seen similar dynamics: when US imports decreased after fracking boomexporters they redirected Part of their sales to Asia and Europe, and even slowed their production. Although coffee and LNG play in different leagues (one is an energy raw material, the other a perishable agricultural product), market logic is comparable: less demand in a key destination forces to look for other markets or produce less to avoid collapsing prices. That could be the strategy of large coffee producers, who are already preparing for it optimizing costs and logistics, as Wüllner proposes. Hope? Depends. On the one hand, the FAO (the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization) estimates that The worst has not happened And that, because coffee has no alternatives, although prices rise, consumers will continue to pay them. On the other, … Read more
