New Report Identifies Green-Energy Gap Standing in Way of Climate Goals

A new Rockefeller Foundation report has revealed that the world is facing a major green-energy gap that could potentially prevent it from achieving established renewable-energy goals. The findings point to a massive green power gap that's nearly two times larger than America's annual renewables capacity and underscored the pressing need for green energy in 72 nations. According to the Rockefeller Foundation's report, 72 countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and the Middle East face an 8,700 terawatt-hour (TWh) renewable energy gap. The report states that this significant energy gap currently affects a whopping 3.8 billion people worldwide,…

New Technologies, Practices Help to Transform Clean-Energy Sector

Replacing fossil fuels with renewables will be one of the globe’s most challenging and rewarding undertakings of this century. Dozens of countries have already taken significant steps to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and cut their greenhouse-gas emissions, but the world is still quite a way from carbon neutrality. New technologies and practices could be the key to transforming the fledgling green-energy industry and accelerating the adoption of renewables. Clean energy is already responsible for powering a growing share of the world's energy needs, especially in the European Union, where countries such as Norway are leaps and bounds ahead…

The West Could Learn Valuable Lessons from China’s Green Energy Rise

China has turned its massive manufacturing might toward clean energy over the past decade, and the results have been impressive. The east Asian nation produces nearly all the photovoltaic solar panels on the globe, produces the cheapest battery electric cars, and has installed more green-energy infrastructure than any other nation on the globe. Despite the historic tension between the West and China, Western nations could learn a lot from China's rise in the renewable-energy space. While China has spent at least a decade and invested considerable funds toward developing its green industries, the West is largely playing catch up and…

UN Report Flags Drop in Access to Energy, a First in 10 Years

A recently published United Nations (UN) report has warned of a widening global energy gap that is leaving hundreds of millions around the world with no access to electricity. The SDG 7 report notes that 685 million did not have electricity access in 2022, up from 675 million in 2021, making it the first time in more than a decade that access to electricity fell. According to the Energy Progress Report 2024, the increase in the number of people without access to electricity was due to a number of factors. Those factors includedpopulation growth outpacing the rate of new connections,…

Wisconsin Energy Regulators to Make Unprecedented Decisions as State Goes Green

Energy regulators in Wisconsin are poised to make decisions unprecedented in the state's history as it speeds up its transition to clean energy. Renewables accounted for only 3% of Wisconsin’s capacity in 2008, but now the Badger State draws a whopping 28% of its energy from green sources such as solar and wind. While this pales in comparison to what many European countries have achieved, it is a monumental achievement for Wisconsin and a stepping stone to even greater successes in the renewables segment. However, some green-energy proponents say the state's current pace of green-energy adoption isn't fast enough to…

Research Team Develops Self-Healing Device to Generate Clean Energy

A research team from the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology (DGIST) in South Korea has developed a novel clean-energy-generation technology with self-healing properties. Led by Lee Joo-hyuk, a professor in the department of energy science and engineering, the team designed the biodegradable green device to enhance current renewable energy-generation capabilities while minimizing the burgeoning green-energy industry's impact on the environment. The ionic polyurethane-based triboelectric generator uses ionic liquid to boost its power output significantly and has high electropositive, self healing and biodegradable properties. The new design’s properties make it a potentially feasible sustainable energy source for the next…

Global Consensus on Energy Transition Is High, Making t Equitable is the Challenge

The latest Peoples’ Climate Vote by the United Nations has revealed that most countries support transitioning to clean energy as quickly as possible. Titled “Accelerating an Equitable Transition: A Data-Driven Approach,” the report found that a whopping 85% of countries are interested in a fast transition to renewables, indicating that the green-energy transition is a major priority for a majority of the world. Unfortunately, making this transition equitable will most likely be a massive challenge. Developing and emerging countries received less than 15% of the $1.8 trillion that was invested into developing green-energy infrastructure last year, putting them at a…

The 2024 US Elections Could Decide Future of Renewable Energy

The future of the fledgling renewable energy industry may be riding on the upcoming U.S. elections. President Joe Biden’s administration has been a godsend to the segment over the past several years, investing tens of billions of dollars into building America's green-energy infrastructure and taking more climate-based action than any previous administration. According to Climate Power executive director Lori Lodes, President Biden passed landmark climate bills that cut billions of tons of carbon pollution, brought back plenty of job opportunities into the country and revitalized communities. Now that Biden’s first and only term is drawing to a close, the future…
