Governmental Inaction on Renewable Energy Targets is Inhibiting Investors

Independent global energy think tank Ember has published a study outlining how government inaction on renewable energy targets is inhibiting investors in the critical but capital-dependent industry. Renewables like solar and wind energy have made major gains over the past decade thanks to policy support and reductions in costs, but such projects require significant capital support in their initial stages, making them heavily reliant on investor funding. However, insufficient government action is making investors uneasy about green energy, and many are considering relocating their capital to other low-risk sectors. According to Ember, countries remain far from achieving the COP28 pledge…

Owners of Data Centers Request US Treasury to Retain Clean Energy Incentives Rules

Data center owners in the United States are calling on the U.S. Treasury to retain clean energy incentives rules for solar and wind energy, arguing that these policies have been instrumental in supporting the data center industry's growth and maintaining its competitiveness against China. The recently-passed Big Beautiful Bill continued the Trump administration's anti-climate action stance by changing energy incentives rules and speeding up the expiration of certain renewable energy subsidies, putting America's nascent green energy industry, and sectors that rely on it like data centers, in significant jeopardy. The Data Center Coalition is asking U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent…

Report Says China’s Renewable Energy Exports Enable Other Countries to Slash Emissions

A recent Carbon Brief report has revealed that China’s surging renewable energy exports are enabling other countries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. According to the report, Beijing’s renewable energy technology exports, which include electric cars, batteries, and photovoltaic solar panels, are helping other countries increase their green energy adoption rates and cut their emissions. Last year, the report notes, green energy technology exports from China helped lower global greenhouse gas emissions (excluding China) by 1%, and those exports are expected to save around 4 billion tons’ worth of carbon dioxide emissions over their lifetimes. With the CO2 emissions savings…

How Clean Energy Projects Can Manage Political Risk

As the global transition from fossil fuels to renewables accelerates, green energy project organizers must develop strategies for managing political risks. With the world still far from achieving carbon neutrality, political risks remain one of the most significant barriers to the expansion of renewables. Nevertheless, renewable energy adoption has advanced considerably in the U.S., aided by falling green energy prices, federal incentives, and state mandates. Between 2014 and 2023, the U.S. added more than 121 gigawatts (GW) of small and utility-scale solar capacity and increased wind capacity by 83%, marking growth rates of 688% and 130%, respectively. However, the current…

Experts Caution That the Environmental Impact of Renewable Energy Needs Scrutiny

As renewables like solar and wind energy become more integrated into the global energy mix, experts are calling for increased scrutiny into the potential environmental effects of the world’s growing green energy capacity. Although wind, solar, hydropower, and other sources of renewable energy produce zero emissions when used, the entire renewable energy production pipeline isn’t completely emission-free. Renewables themselves may produce little to no harmful greenhouse gas emissions, but their production can be quite energy-intensive, and their negative effects on the environment should not be understated. Compared to fossil fuels like gasoline or coal, renewables are undoubtedly the cleaner option.…

States Rush to Complete Clean Energy Projects as Tax Credit Expiry Looms

Dozens of U.S. states are rushing to complete renewable energy projects that are currently under construction before green energy tax credits expire under the recently passed Big Beautiful Bill. With the expiry date for green tax credits fast approaching, state officials are calling for fast‑tracked permitting processes to ensure new renewable energy projects can be connected to the electrical grid before the credits lapse. Based on the current administration’s seemingly antagonistic stance toward renewables and green infrastructure, these could be among the last clean energy projects launched in the U.S. for several years. The Trump administration opposed the previous administration’s…

Researchers in Ireland Test Kites Designed to Generate Wind Energy

Researchers in Ireland are testing the feasibility of using giant kites to generate green electricity. Located in Bangor Erris in Mayo County in western Ireland, the designated airborne wind energy (AWE) test hub serves as the main testing ground for this novel source of renewable energy. The tests involve flying giant Falcon kites (60m²) that are secured to generators on the ground, and the researchers use a yo‑yo motion to generate clean energy from high‑altitude wind. The project is led by KitePower, a Dutch company founded in 2016 as a Delft University of Technology spin‑off, in partnership with Mayo County…

UN Chief Explains Why Transitioning to Clean Energy is Smart Economics

Transitioning to renewable energy is not only critical for the environment, UN Secretary-General António Guterres says, it is also smart economics. The UN official emphasized that economic realities are now accelerating the green transition and making it “unstoppable” during an online address titled ‘A Moment of Opportunity'. He noted that the rapid decline in renewable energy costs helped the world add record amounts of new clean energy capacity last year. Renewables now compete with fossil fuels like oil and natural gas in terms of cost, scale, and economic impact. The UN chief’s comments coincided with the release of two major…
