EIA Sees Strong Renewable Growth Over Next Two Years

EIA expects non-hydroelectric renewable energy resources such as solar and wind will be the fastest growing source of U.S. electricity generation for at least the next two years. EIA’s January 2019 Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO) forecasts that electricity generation from utility-scale solar generating units will grow by 10 percent in 2019 and by 17 percent in 2020. According to the January STEO, wind generation will grow by 12 percent and 14 percent during the next two years. EIA forecasts total U.S. electricity generation across all fuels will fall by 2 percent this year and then show very little growth in 2020.

Stronger Together: EU and Georgia celebrate Europe Day

On 9th May the European Union and its member states mark Europe Day, which commemorates the historic 1950 Schuman declaration. This speech, made in the ruins of World War II, laid out a vision of cooperation between European nations that would lead to the European Union as we know it.

Increase in Endogenous Glucose Production With SGLT2 Inhibition Is Unchanged by Renal Denervation and Correlates Strongly With the Increase in Urinary Glucose Excretion

OBJECTIVE

Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibition causes an increase in endogenous glucose production (EGP). However, the mechanisms are unclear. We studied the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on EGP in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and without diabetes (non-DM) in kidney transplant recipients with renal denervation.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Fourteen subjects who received a renal transplant (six with T2D [A1C 7.2 ± 0.1%] and eight non-DM [A1C 5.6 ± 0.1%) underwent measurement of EGP with [3-3H]glucose infusion following dapagliflozin (DAPA) 10 mg or placebo. Plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, and titrated glucose-specific activity were measured.

RESULTS

Following placebo in T2D, fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (143 ± 14 to 124 ± 10 mg/dL; P = 0.02) and fasting plasma insulin (12 ± 2 to 10 ± 1.1 μU/mL; P < 0.05) decreased; plasma glucagon was unchanged, and EGP declined. After DAPA in T2D, FPG (143 ± 15 to 112 ± 9 mg/dL; P = 0.01) and fasting plasma insulin (14 ± 3 to 11 ± 2 μU/mL; P = 0.02) decreased, and plasma glucagon increased (all P < 0.05 vs. placebo). EGP was unchanged from baseline (2.21 ± 0.19 vs. 1.96 ± 0.14 mg/kg/min) in T2D (P < 0.001 vs. placebo). In non-DM following DAPA, FPG and fasting plasma insulin decreased, and plasma glucagon was unchanged. EGP was unchanged from baseline (1.85 ± 0.10 to 1.78 ± 0.10 mg/kg/min) after DAPA, whereas EGP declined significantly with placebo. When the increase in EGP production following DAPA versus placebo was plotted against the difference in urinary glucose excretion (UGE) for all patients, a strong correlation (r = 0.824; P < 0.001) was observed.

CONCLUSIONS

Renal denervation in patients who received a kidney transplant failed to block the DAPA-mediated stimulation of EGP in both individuals with T2D and non-DM subjects. The DAPA-stimulated rise in EGP is strongly related to the increase in UGE, blunting the decline in FPG.
