Upcoming LNG Projects in Asia: The Outlook for 2023 and Beyond
Developing Asian countries have felt the financially-devastating consequences of relying on natural gas. Yet, they are planning for a massive buildout of LNG terminals – a move that will lock them in a future of stranded assets, high power costs and energy independence.
Debunking Japan’s ‘Clean Coal Technology’ Claim
Japan's clean coal ambitions have been criticised as another attempt to stall the country's clean energy transition and keep coal afloat.
Forest Plantation: Social, Environmental and Climate Impacts
Forest plantations are used to reforest areas that have previously been deforested, typically for the production of raw materials. Forest plantations generally have one or two tree species and do not mimic natural forests. As a result, they are not a direct solution to deforestation and lead to several harmful environmental impacts.
LNG’s Stranded Asset Risk in Asia: Warnings, Project Delays and Cancellations
Gas prices are projected to remain high for the next couple of years, while available volumes are to remain scarce. As a result, bringing new LNG projects online in Asia won’t get any easier and more delays and cancellations are potentially waiting around the corner.
Unaffordable Fuel Prices Stall Asia’s LNG Expansion
As high gas prices rock global markets, Asia is facing a permanent contraction in demand for LNG and looking toward other energy sources. Several LNG facilities across Asia could go underused or risk cancellation.
LNG Remains Too Volatile for India’s Energy Sector
India has been developing considerable LNG import infrastructure. However, high gas prices and carbon emissions are worrying issues.
The Future of Renewable Energy Looks Brighter than Ever
IEA's Renewables 2022 report revealed that the world is planning for massive clean energy capacity expansion. The findings are even more ambitious than the agency's last year report.
Is Biofuel Renewable? The Ongoing Debate
Biofuels are made from organic matter, which is either directly farmed for biofuel production or collected from biomass waste. This makes biofuels renewable. Additionally, plant growth and combustion are carbon neutral. However, biofuel production requires many outside inputs that release carbon dioxide and impact the environment. Will biofuels play an important role in the world's energy transition?
South Korea’s LNG Reliance
South Korea is deeply involved in the development of LNG import and gas-to-power infrastructure across the Asia. It must divert its resources to renewables.
Gas Demand Destruction to Give Way to More Renewable Energy Development
The cost of the LNG used for power production and the industrial sector could be devising in its own downfall due to gas demand destruction.
Can Asia and the Pacific Get on Track to Net Zero?
The window of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees is closing fast. Is Asia able to get back on track and inspire the globe?
Tackling Greenwashing: the Report of UN Experts at COP27 Reveals All
