Renewable Energy
How Do Wind Turbines Work?
Wind turbines capture the kinetic energy in the wind, transfer it into mechanical energy and finally turn the mechanical energy into electricity. This energy transfer, and wind turbines themselves, have seen a dramatic increase in efficiency over the last several decades. This is leading to increasing rates of adoption with new designs and broader applications.
The Philippines’ Climate Policies and the Priorities for the New President
The new president and his administration will have to lead the Philippines through one of the most critical moments in the battle against climate change. Considering how much is at stake for the island country, the new leadership should pursue ambitious climate policies that abandon fossil fuels and prioritise renewables.
Elections in Asia 2022 and Their Effect on the Region
The recent elections in South Korea, Australia and the Philippines have helped paint a picture of the region's net-zero journey. While the new leaders of the three countries have announced some ambitious goals, the overall sense is that more could be done, considering the vast renewable energy potential of the region.
Green Technology in 2022: Examples, Benefits, Goals and Future
Green technology will undoubtedly be the leading driver for climate mitigation and the green energy transition, but technology alone is not enough. The adoption of nature-based solutions and reducing overall energy demand should also be considered an integral part of the world's decarbonisation plans.
Technological Innovation Examples: A Balancing Act for Climate Impact
Technology plays an important role in dictating how the world develops. It has helped humans advance, and it exists across all industries. However, innovations that exploit the environment do come with consequences. We are still looking for a balance between innovation, sustainability and progress. But, time is running out.
Best Technology Solutions For Climate Change Mitigation
Technology has a pivotal role to play in climate change mitigation. We need ways to efficiently harness renewable energy while reducing the climate impacts we have already created. While our current technology is a good start, we will need to find ways to continually speed up decarbonisation.
Technology and Climate Change: Taking a Look At the Policy Gap
The world is rapidly developing technology to slow climate change. However, global policy to support this shift is slow, leaving local governments responsible. This has led to vast policy differences across regions, making it challenging for the world to meet the required decarbonisation goals.
The Cost of Sustainability for Asia is Lower than the Benefits
As one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change, Asia has virtually nothing to lose from the looming energy transition. While investments are needed, the cost of sustainability is negligible compared to what the continent stands to gain.
How to Reduce the Music Industry’s Climate Impact
Aside from a couple of bright examples, the music industry isn't the most vocal climate advocate. Fans, bands, tour managers, streaming companies and event organisers should team up to reduce the excessive climate impact of the industry.
The Economic Benefits of Renewable Energy for Asia: Crunching the Numbers
The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy in Asia will unleash massive economic benefits, including expanding the job market, ensuring steady GDP gains and hedging the unpredictable fossil fuel prices.
Promising Renewable Energy Statistics 2022 – Revealed By New Global Status Report
Despite the tremendous growth in new renewable energy additions, the energy system transformation is sluggish and fossil fuels continue to be the backbone of the global energy system. Without more engagement on the political front, global decarbonisation will remain a pipe dream.
How Google Is Tracking Global Methane Emissions and Air Pollution
Methane emissions from natural gas are rising globally, affecting the climate. Across cities, Google is now tracking where the leaks happen.
The G7 Summit 2022: A Recap of the 48th G7 Meeting and Where Leaders Failed
Leaders at the G7 Summit 2022 have taken some good steps but also some questionable ones, leaving a huge gap to fill leading up to COP27. Whether they follow on their pledges will show if there is any chance for the world’s net-zero journey to succeed. Because so far, the signs aren’t promising.
Are Exxon’s Asian Carbon Capture Intentions Genuine?
Exxon's carbon capture plans are grand. They hinge on developing an extensive CCS network centred in Singapore, connecting with the surrounding countries. Ultimately, this will facilitate the adoption of carbon capture in Southeast Asia and place Exxon at the centre of this growing market.
