IEA Says Countries Behind in Meeting Renewable-Energy Goals

A recent International Energy Agency (IEA) analysis has revealed that most nations are lagging in the implementation of their green-energy goals. The analysis warned that despite promising to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas, the majority of countries aren't on track to tripling their clean energy capacity by the end of the decade. With the effects of more than a century of greenhouse-gas emissions becoming clearer by the day, countries must eliminate fossil fuels from their energy mixes and replace them with renewables such as solar and wind. Combining this with green technology such…

California’s Permitting Issues Need Fixes to Progress in Clean-Energy Transition

California will have to fix the issues plaguing its permitting processes before the state's green-energy transition can make major progress. With 28% of California's electricity coming from wind and solar, an increase from 14% in 2015, the Golden State has made major strides in clean-energy generation over the past decade. However, California still isn't getting this renewable energy onto the grid fast enough. The state has a power-generation capacity of 88 gigawatts (GW) and needs to add 7–8 GW of capacity every year over the next two decades to meet its energy transition goals. Unfortunately, the state has averaged a…

Energy and Water Development Corp. (EAWD) Offering Realistic Hope for Clean Water Accessibility Globally

Energy and Water Development Corp., a green-tech engineering solutions company focused on delivering water and energy to extreme environments, is aware of the growing impact of climate change and pollution on clean water access As of 2022, at least 2.2 billion people in the world still lacked safely managed drinking water, according to a report by the UN It is further projected that by 2030, only 81% of the world’s population will have access to safe drinking water at home, meaning 1.5 billion people without it EAWD looks to address this through its offering, which has shown the potential to…

IEA Says Green Energy Investment to Top $2T This Year

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has revealed that solar energy is attracting more funding than every other source of electricity combined. With photovoltaic solar infrastructure growing incredibly cheap over the last several decades, major territories such as the United States, China and Europe have embarked on a record run of solar installations. The result is historic levels of investment in the renewable source of energy, reports the IEA. In 2024 alone, global investments in renewables will hit a whopping $2 trillion, two times the funds set to be invested in fossil fuels. IEA executive director Faith Birol noted that almost…

China Commissions Globe’s Largest Solar-Energy Facility

China has commissioned a worldwide, record-setting solar energy plant. The facility has a capacity of 5,000 MW and can generate at least 6,000G Wh annually. This is more than enough to provide the energy needs of entire countries such as Luxembourg. This giant plant is found in Xinjiang, a region known for its desert climate. The power plant sprawls over a land mass equal to 200,000 hectares and was set up by Power China. Before this newest solar plant kicked off its operations, the previous largest pair of solar facilities were also found in China. Each of them produces approximately…

Report Says Wind, Solar Energy Growth in EU Undercutting Fossil Fuels

Recent data has revealed that solar and wind energy growth in the European Union has begun undercutting fossil fuels. A report by think tank Ember found that energy generation from the two renewables has surged by 46% from 2019 to 2023 and eaten into one-fifth of the fossil fuels’ energy market, taking the EU a step closer to achieving its carbon-neutrality goals. Aside from the plan to achieve net neutrality by 2050, the current European Commission also proposed generating 45% of the regional bloc's energy from renewables by the end of the decade. Most climate experts agree that transitioning from…

Disused Mining Equipment Could Gain New Life in Solar Installations

An energy company based in the Czech Republic is granting disused mining equipment a second life in new solar installations. ČEZ Group, a conglomerate of nearly 100 companies, has begun testing whether parts removed from strip coal mine conveyor belts could support the construction of photovoltaic solar power plants. Central sections extracted from old conveyor belts in coal mines are being recycled into structures to carry the solar-energy panels. These central sections typically transport excavated soil from one area to another, a relatively mundane but critical activity in the coal-mining pipeline. Although the mines they served are now discounted, the…

Study Suggests Understanding Plants’ Circadian Rhythms Could Yield Clean Energy Source

Gaining an understanding of the circadian rhythms of plants could open the door to developing a new type of clean energy, a study suggests. The research shows that we could harness the electric potential or voltage that plants create when they draw water through their roots by learning their biological clocks. Using this electric potential could lead to the creation of a new renewable energy source. Every living organism is subject to a circadian rhythm, or biological clock, that determines its biological processes through the day and night in cycles. Plants use light from the sun to conduct photosynthesis and…
