Energy Infrastructure: Low-carbon heating requires technologies that ensure an efficient and secure integration into the (electrical) grid.

Africa’s ability to leapfrog traditional power systems and adopt renewables on a massive scale is not a fantasy. In-depth studies from Wärtsilä have demonstrated that with the adequate support of flexible power technologies, ambitious renewable energy objectives in Africa are not only achievable, they also represent the soundest and cheapest strategy for the successful electrification of the continent.

As the EU pushes more broadly to bolster clean energy, it’s also responding to concerns that green industries could emigrate to the US and China, with the price that Europe pays for its energy a driving factor.

China has accounted for the world's largest solar capacity addition in recent years, with around 30% of installed global capacity, but most of the low-hanging fruits have been picked, and deeper penetration into the energy mix requires overhauling large parts of the power system.

India has also neglected its hydropower potential, which accounts for only around 13% of the country's total installed capacity.

The latest issue of EIA's "Electric Power Monthly" report (with data through December 31) reveals that renewable energy sources (including small-scale solar systems) increased their electrical output by 12.37% last year compared to 2021.

The US Department of Energy (DOE) has numerous programs that provide funding to support energy resilience projects throughout the country.

By leveraging digital technologies like artificial intelligence, data analytics, and the Internet of Things (IoT), the Digital Green Grid can optimize energy production, distribution, and consumption in real-time, reducing waste and maximizing efficiency.

China's apparent gas consumption was 366.3 billion cubic metres in 2022, down 1.7% from the previous year, data from the country's National Development and Reform Commission showed.

India is bracing for another summer of grueling heat that’s likely to push power demand to a record and pressure the country’s grid, which relies on coal for about 70% of electricity generation.
