The 250-year history of U.S. energy consumption

The 250-year history of U.S. energy consumption

Over the 250-year history of our nation, energy consumption has evolved from wood use in the 18th and 19th centuries to today's use of modern renewable, hydrocarbon, and nuclear technology. In 2025, total energy used in the United States was 96 quadrillion British thermal units (quads), up 2% from 2024, but below 2007's record 99 quads. Petroleum was the most-used energy source last year, followed closely by natural gas. Use of renewable, coal, and nuclear energy each made up about 9% of total energy use.

Metered electricity demand in the New York ISO falls midday because of small-scale solar

Metered electricity demand in the New York ISO falls midday because of small-scale solar

An increase in electricity generation from small-scale solar in New York has decreased the midday demand for metered electricity, amid overall declining load in the state. The trend is particularly notable in the early spring (March and April), when solar generation has an outsized impact because demand is relatively low and conditions for solar generation are favorable.

UAE's exit from OPEC+ reduced the group's share of crude oil production and capacity

UAE's exit from OPEC+ reduced the group's share of crude oil production and capacity

On April 28, 2026, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) announced that it was leaving OPEC, effective on May 1. OPEC was formed in 1960 by Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Venezuela, with the stated objective to "coordinate and unify petroleum policies among Member Countries." OPEC is best known for its effect on global crude oil prices.

To set up Appium on your notebook, you’ll need to meet the following requirements:

Operating System:
- Appium supports macOS, Linux, and Windows operating systems. Ensure your notebook runs one of these.
Node.js and NPM:
- Install Node.js (version in the SemVer range ^14.17.0 || ^16.13.0 || >=18.0.0).
- NPM (Node Package Manager) is usually bundled with Node.js, but you can upgrade it independently. Make sure your NPM version is >= 8.
Appium Installation:
- Install Appium globally using NPM:
```
npm install -g appium
```
Appium Server:
- Start the Appium server by running:
```
appium
```
- If you see output like “[Appium] Welcome to Appium v2.0.0,” the server is up and running ¹ ².
Additional Dependencies:
- To automate a specific platform (e.g., Android or iOS), refer to the documentation of the corresponding Appium driver(s) for any additional dependencies.
- Typically, you’ll need the developer toolchain and SDKs specific to the platform you’re testing ¹.

Remember to adapt the installation steps to your specific environment. Happy testing! 🚀📱

The disk space requirements for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm are relatively modest:

Appium:
- By itself, Appium is lightweight and doesn’t have significant disk space requirements.
- It can even run in resource-constrained environments like Raspberry Pi, as long as Node.js is available.
- No specific disk space quota is needed for Appium alone.
Node.js and npm:
- Node.js and npm are essential for running Appium.
- The installation of Node.js and npm doesn’t consume much disk space.
- However, ensure you have enough space for other development tools and dependencies.

In summary, a few gigabytes of free space should suffice for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm on your notebook. Happy testing! 🚀📱
