Renewables to overtake coal as largest global electricity source in 2025

Teslarati

During the COP28 climate conference held in Dubai last month, world leaders from over 130 national governments agreed to set a goal to triple world renewable energy installations by 2030. Last year, China commissioned as much solar PV as the entire world did in 2022, while the country’s wind power increased 66 percent year over year.

Sasol and ITOCHU to partner on green ammonia and hydrogen

Green Car Congress

The MoU was signed during the Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD 8) in Tunisia, a forum to advance Japan-Africa sustainable development on the continent. Green ammonia is produced from green hydrogen, which in turn is produced from renewable electricity (solar and wind) via an electrolysis process.

China’s battery storage capacity growth likely to slow in 2024 – ET Auto

Baua Electric

Grid-connected battery farms back up renewables when the sun is not shining or the wind is not blowing and are considered important to help integrate clean energy into power grids. This is particularly important for China, which has minimal natural gas capacity, a more flexible power source than slow-ramping coal plants.

University of Calgary Study Finds Large-Scale Adoption of PHEVs in Alberta Could Support Wind Power; PHEV GHG Benefits Range from 40-90% in Emissions Reduction

Green Car Congress

The study found the environmental impacts of PHEVs in Alberta would depend on factors such as vehicle battery size, charging time and wind production levels. Of the installed capacity of just above 12,000 MW, approximately 49% (5,893 MW) is coal fired, 39% (4,686 MW) is gas-fired, 7% (869 MW) is hydro, and 4% (497 MW) is wind powered.

Good news – the world has a real chance of achieving its goal of tripling renewables by 2030

Baua Electric

The world added 50% more renewable capacity in 2023 than in 2022 –and that means it has a real chance of achieving the goal set by governments at the COP28 climate change conference of tripling global capacity by 2030. The increases in renewable energy capacity in the US, Europe, and Brazil also hit all-time highs.
