Report Shows Renewables are Triggering Global Reductions in Power Prices

Wind and solar energy deliver the most economical electricity generation despite political assertions that clean technologies inflate consumer bills, Zero Carbon Analytics research indicates. Analysis revealed that nine-tenths of recently constructed large-scale renewable installations produce power at costs lower than the cheapest newly built fossil fuel plants. Land-based wind turbines currently generate the globe's most affordable fresh electrical capacity. Referencing International Renewable Energy Agency findings, researchers found that terrestrial wind facilities deliver electricity 53% cheaper than the lowest-cost carbon-based alternatives, while renewable installations combined with storage batteries steadily match fossil generation economics across major territories. Contrary to renewable affordability evidence,…

Top US Academic Journal Crowns Renewables Surge as 2025’s Biggest Breakthrough

A prominent American research publication has crowned surging renewable energy adoption as 2025’s top scientific achievement. The Thursday announcement by the journal Science credited China with spearheading the worldwide shift toward cleaner electricity generation methods. 2025 brought a significant transition as clean energy, mostly captured through solar arrays and wind installations, started displacing traditional sources across various metrics, the publication reported in its annual review. Global clean power capacity grew fast enough to satisfy all new electricity demand globally during the initial six months of the year. It also overtook coal-fired generation worldwide, representing a watershed moment in power production…

Brownfields Could Power the Energy Transition

Abandoned industrial lands called brownfield sites could help power the transition from fossil fuels to renewables. Approximately 6 million UK households cannot afford adequate heating, a sharp increase in energy poverty since 2021. Simultaneously, Britain must deliver 70 gigawatts of solar capacity by 2035 to meet net-zero targets, enough electricity to power 35 million households. England alone contains over 37,000 brownfield sites, many located in economically disadvantaged areas with low property values. Government registers show that these contaminated or derelict parcels resulting from deindustrialization range from 0.001 hectares to 157,945 hectares. Rather than remaining fenced-off environmental liabilities, these properties could…

How Energy and AI are Reshaping Power Grids

Artificial intelligence and energy systems are converging at a critical moment for power grids worldwide. Shifting away from fossil fuels toward renewable sources demands sophisticated management tools for variable generation like wind and solar. AI's capacity to process enormous datasets and generate predictions positions it as a potential solution. Climate change represents one of humanity's greatest challenges, and addressing it will require replacing carbon-based energy with clean alternatives. Successfully incorporating intermittent renewable sources into existing infrastructure requires advanced planning and operational tools. Grid operators must ensure stability and security while renewable capacity grows. Recent computational breakthroughs enable machines to replicate…

EU Records 4% Uptick in Renewables Generation in Q3

Renewable energy generation in the European Union climbed again in the third quarter of 2025, accounting for nearly half of all electricity produced across member states. New data shows that renewables supplied 49.3% of net electricity in Q3, up from 47.5% in the same period last year, a gain of roughly 4 percentage points that underscores the bloc’s ongoing energy transition. The figures released by Eurostat signal steady progress toward cleaner power even as markets weigh supply challenges and policy debates. A majority of EU countries saw year-on-year increases in renewables’ share of electricity output, reflecting robust investment in clean…

UN Lauds China’s Efforts to Transition to Renewable Energy

Renewable energy buildout in China has made exceptional contributions to worldwide climate action, United Nations Environment Program leadership says. Massively expanded manufacturing scale in the Asian economic powerhouse has slashed clean technology prices and broadened access globally, particularly across developing regions. Inger Andersen, serving as both UNEP's executive director and a UN Under-Secretary-General, discussed these developments with China Daily ahead of the seventh Environment Assembly gathering that opened Monday in Nairobi. She described installation growth rates as moving at an extraordinary clip. Plans call for reaching 3,600 gigawatts of wind and solar generation by 2035, representing a sixfold increase from…

The Benefits and Costs of Incorporating Renewable Energy in Buildings

Renewable energy installations are transforming property economics across residential and commercial sectors. What once registered as a sustainability bonus now operates as a core value driver, according to experts tracking market shifts. Alanna Loder-Symonds, sustainability director at consulting firm EQONIC Sustainability, contends that renewable technology advantages have become impossible to dismiss. Photovoltaic arrays, energy storage batteries and comparable on-property generation systems have shifted from add-on features to essential infrastructure that affect asset performance and market position. Upfront capital requirements present the biggest challenge to incorporating renewables in buildings. Standard rooftop solar arrays for British three-bedroom houses cost $6,655 to $11,980…

3rd Party Developers are Promoting Solar Projects in the US

Third-party developers are expanding solar across America despite the Trump administration's aggressive campaign against renewable energy. These independent entities fill critical gaps left by federal retreat, helping towns, schools and municipalities access clean power projects they couldn't pursue alone. Programs like Connecticut's Solar MAP Plus demonstrate how public developers operate. Communities lacking resources or expertise for implementing photovoltaic systems with energy storage capacity receive comprehensive support. Developers manage the entire pipeline from initial property assessment to final energization, combining multiple projects to reduce per-unit expenses. Their methodology involves evaluating potential sites, verifying technical suitability, finalizing contracts, and overseeing competitive bidding…

Trump Drops “Renewable” from Energy Lab’s Name

President Donald Trump’s decision to remove the renewable label from a major U.S. energy lab has set off another round of debate about the administration’s priorities and its long-running skepticism toward wind and solar projects. The shift was quietly posted on the lab’s website late Monday, confirming that the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Colorado will now appear under a new banner, the National Laboratory of the Rockies. The name change does not alter the facility’s location or its broad research portfolio, but it does reshape the public image of one of the Department of Energy’s most visible scientific centers.…

How to Mitigate Talent Shortages During the Energy Transition

Mitigating talent shortage challenges during an energy transition is a major issue for many firms. As renewable energy adoption accelerates, companies are finding it difficult to secure enough skilled professionals to keep up with demand. The rapid growth of solar, wind, and storage projects is outpacing the workforce, leaving a gap in both technical expertise and operational know-how. Without a solution, project timelines and sustainability goals are at risk. The energy transition has created unprecedented demand for specialists. Firms need workers who can install solar panels, maintain wind turbines, and integrate energy storage systems. At the same time, experienced professionals…
