Asia’s Renewable Energy Leaders and Laggards in 2024
The International Energy Agency's (IEA) Renewables 2024, published in early October, reveals Asia’s renewable energy leaders and laggards.
Laos’ Net-zero 2050: Renewable Power Generation Challenges and Opportunities
ASEAN member Laos has plans to increase renewable energy in its power mix, notably solar power buildout. However, it continues to rely on hydropower and coal-fired power plants to generate electricity, complicating both its way forward and decarbonisation plans.
Green Steel: Powering The Low-carbon Economy
Green steel is produced without fossil fuels and has significantly lower emissions than traditional steel. The IEA sees green steel development as a critical step in global decarbonisation and for companies that rely on steel throughout their supply chains.
Top 10 Biggest Renewable Energy Companies
The world's top renewable energy companies are critical to global decarbonisation efforts. They range from specialised manufacturers to full value chain operations that are subsidiaries of the world's largest energy producers.
Top 7 Renewable Energy Innovations: Pioneering the Future
Renewable energy innovation is crucial for reaching net-zero emissions by 2050, particularly in hard-to-decarbonise sectors like heavy industry. Promising advancements, from floating offshore wind farms to green hydrogen production, are expected to significantly expand renewable energy capacity and contribute to these climate goals.
Renewable Energy Projects for Students: Empowering Tomorrow
Renewable energy projects are crucial for cultivating future leaders in the global energy transition. These projects play a vital role in developing the skills and expertise needed for sustainable energy solutions in the future.
Solar 53% Cheaper than Fossil Fuels in Malaysia
Malaysia has solid renewable energy market fundamentals and, according to the IEA, hosts low investment risks for project investors. The country is just a step away from unlocking the advantages of the clean energy transition but the government needs policy reforms and more ambitious climate goals.
Renewable Energy Projects: Powering a Sustainable Future
Renewable energy projects are core to achieving the ambitious goals set by the Paris Climate Agreement. As countries strive for net-zero emissions, these large-scale initiatives are transforming the energy landscape, overcoming significant challenges to pave the way for a more sustainable and carbon-free future.
How Bangladesh and Pakistan Can Survive the Energy Crisis
Fossil fuel import dependence has put Pakistan and Bangladesh in a very similar situation. However, both countries' pathways for salvaging it are also comparable: diversifying their energy mixes with a focus on renewables and reduced reliance on deliveries.
100% Renewable Energy Adoption is Possible For Taiwan’s ICT Companies
In June, Greenpeace, in collaboration with the Research Centre for Sustainable Hong Kong, released a cost-benefit analysis supporting the assertion that an accelerated transition to 100% renewable energy would bring economic and environmental advantages to 13 major electronics manufacturers in East Asia. The insights are particularly relevant for Taiwanese companies, key players in the high-tech electronics sector in Asia, whose renewable energy efforts have trailed their rivals.
Energy Storage Systems and Grid Investments Crucial For Enabling Renewables Integration in Asia
Clean energy technology innovations are continuously breaking records but to capitalise on them and unlock the gains of the clean energy transition, it is essential to accelerate the investments in grid flexibility and storage.
The Illusion of Progress: Dissecting ASEAN’s 35% Renewable Energy Target by 2025
ASEAN's target is insufficient to meet Southeast Asia's climate goals. To stay within a 1.5°C pathway, the region must adopt more ambitious renewable energy policies, focusing on the rapid scaling of solar and wind, drawing from Vietnam’s example.
2024 Trends in the Asian Solar Market: Growth and Opportunities
With China's global leadership in clean power deployment and technological innovation and Vietnam's solar market experience, Asia has the blueprint to champion the green energy transition. Will the region grab the opportunity?
Clean Energy Investment in 2024 Twice Amount for Fossil Fuels: IEA
The IEA’s World Energy Investment 2024 reveals that while clean energy spending is at record levels, the investments still fall short of what is required for a 1.5°C-aligned world. The agency also highlights stark market contrasts and calls for more ambitious policy measures to bridge the financing gap.
