Christian Science Monitor: Chiles solar power generation has exploded in recent years, to such an extent that it has been providing customers with electricity for free. In parts of the country, according to a Bloomberg report, spot prices plummeted to zero on 113 days in the first four months of this year, on track to smash last years total of 192 days.

A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence - Movie Review
2015-04-23 23:29:18| Appliances - Topix.net
Production compaines : ZDF/Arte, Roy Andersson Filmproduktion AB, 4 1/2 Film, Arte France Cinema, Centre National du Cinema et de L'image Animee , Essential Filmproduktion GmbH, Film- und Medienstiftung NRW, Fonds Eurimages du Conseil de l'Europe, Norsk Filmfond, Societe Parisienne de Production, Svenska Filminstitutet , Sveriges Television This Swedish film is so bizarre that it almost defies description: is it a deadpan comedy, a satire of Swedish history or a wry exploration of how people cope with imperfection and mortality?
